The Four Eighths Project: Escape Room
An experimental project to examine the differences between RED’s three main camera bodies and how REDCode RAW works with LaCie drives
Oh now THIS was a fun project. Our creative director/executive producer, Dom, and our producer/PM, Jo, worked on Escape Room for Global Distribution. Dom was their head of marketing at the time and proposed an idea to evaluate three different camera bodies made by one manufacturer - something you don’t usually see in the wild. And the best way to do it? Meh, make a casual action film. As you do.
We came up with the concept and wrote a half page script that would be shot three times in just one day. The results speak for themselves, with this project amassing more views than any other for Global Distribution. This project was sponsored by LaCie and RED.
