NOLLYWOOD ARE YOU READY TO MOVE...IT TAKES VISION AND THE WILL TO MOVE NOT JUST 200 MILLION DOLLARS

On November 13, 2008 Red officially announced that the DSMC concept of an integrated Digital Still and Motion Camera system was to be the overarching philosophy of Red's future product lines.
Red opted to design and build interchangeable camera components that are configurable to allow owners to replace various components as they are upgraded and improved, rather than having to replace the entire camera system.
These components come together around a central piece called a Brain, which houses a sensor All current Red cameras record only in the REDCODE RAW codec. It offers a constant-bitrate Wavelet compression with a compression ratio from 18:1 to 3:1. When Red introduced this codec it was the first to allow high bit depth bayer sensor video data to be recorded to CompactFlash, mechanical hard disk or SSD media instead of a big external storage system. Being a lossy codec, decompression does not fully restore the original image data recorded by the sensor. Red claims the codec is "visually lossless", suggesting that the information loss is not visible to the naked eye when images are viewed. Since Redcode is a wavelet based codec, it is possible to extract lower resolutions from the video stream to get real time playback on lower end machines.
Having a video stream that offers the same advantages of a raw image, it is possible to apply all kinds of image processing like white balancing, sharpening, gamma or exposure correction in a non-destructive manner like photographers do with their Raw images.
[edit]RedCine-X
RedCine-X is a closed source RAW converter provided by Red to decode the Redcode data stream. It can be used directly as a standalone RAW converter that transcodes .R3D files into other formats or it can be accessed via its SDK through other vide editing applications to directly load .R3D files like a regular videostream.
With the introduction of the Red Epic, there is the possibility to enable the HDRx feature that records two video streams in parallel. One normally exposed track (A-track) and one underexposed (X-track) track. The underexposed track can be blended together later via RedCineX to recover blown out highlights in the main video track. To create a more realistic motion blur, there are two blending options available that were implemented by TheFoundry that also created the compositing software Nuke and Plugins for various video editing suites.
[edit]Magic Motion
Magic motion attempts to create a motion blur closer to what the human eye would see, meaning the resulting video stream will show blur as well as sharp edges for fast moving objects.
[edit]MNMB
More Natural Motion Blur emulates the motion blur one would get from a standard 180° shutter image like when shot with a film camera or a single exposure video stream.and the necessary electronics to record, encode, decode, and otherwise control the recorded images. As with the other modules, the Brains can be upgraded independently of the rest of the camera, and can also be swapped, so that a single project could use multiple Brains as needed, while otherwise maintaining a preferred configuration of the DSMC.
Scarlet and Epic share the same modular design and are the two current lines of DSMC Brains
