The RED EPIC-X (www.red.com), with its Mysterium-X Sensor sporting 5K resolution, one of the best dynamic ranges at 13.5 stops (18 with HDRx) and rated at 800 ISO, frame rates up to 120 fps at full resolution, the ability to use a variety of lenses, and you’ve got a camera that’s made for both Hollywood and the working professional.

Peter Jackson is using the EPIC in a 3D rig for The Hobbit films, and even more major and indie filmmakers are taking advantage of RED’s latest camera. We decided it’s time to get to know the RED EPIC-X, and Jeremy Wiles of Creative Lab in West Palm Beach (http://www.creative-lab.com/), Florida, was more than happy to introduce us. …

Summary

The RED EPIC-X is truly a celluloid killer, and it’s being used on everything from mega-blockbusters like the upcoming Hobbit and Spider-Man films, to independent filmmakers and video producers, like Creative Lab’s Jeremy Wiles. He explained to me that he started out with the legendary Panasonic DVX100, then re-invested in his company, growing to a 2600 square foot facility with a 30-foot wide cyclorama and a 24-foot wide greenscreen, plus his RED EPIC-X and a RED ONE with the Mysterium-X sensor (up to 4.5K).

He didn’t go into debt, instead focusing on putting part of the money he made on projects back into hisbusiness. He also told me that he never loses sight of his skills as a filmmaker and director of photography, that the RED EPIC is just a tool, albeit an impressive one, that allows him to produce excellent films and videos.
