Cinema Studies is excited to announce the recent addition of RED Camera equipment to the department’s growing list of state-of-the art resources available to its majors.  RED cameras are used throughout the industry to shoot movies, television productions, photography, music videos, and commercials. During fall term, Cinema Studies hosted a workshop for students to view films and gain experience with the new RED Camera equipment.

The workshop provided students with the ability to gain practical experience with the superior image quality and best-in-class resolution offered by the equipment.  Cinema Studies Instructor Kevin May commented on the workshop, "the RED Camera Workshop was very beneficial for students, as they were able to see examples of films shot on RED cameras and get hands-on training and experience on how to operate a variety of RED cameras, including the Weapon, Epic-W, and Scarlet-W Models. With the RED Epic-W 8K camera available to Cinema Studies students, the Department of Cinema Studies will be able to offer future workshops, demos, and other opportunities for students to use the camera in their classwork in advanced production classes."
