Spider-Man Reboot to Use Red Epic 3D Cameras

The making of 3D movies is undergoing something of an evolution with the introduction of the Red Epic cameras, which, with its smaller size and lighter weight, is allowing for more efficient production schedules and better usage. The word is that the Spider-Man reboot will be utilizing these cameras.

Explains engadget.com, "You know that untitled Spider-man project that's set to revitalize the franchise at some point in 2012? Yeah, that's being shot in 3D (not news) using 3ality rigs and RED EPIC cameras (superhotawesome news). Peter Jackson already scooped up 30 EPICs to help him shoot his next big venture, The Hobbit, in 3D, but he's been beaten to the digital cinematography punch by the producers of the next Spidey flick, who have cornered a quartet of the cameras and actually started shooting with them on set yesterday. John Schwartzman, the dude responsible for filming the whole thing, has been extolling the virtues of using such fancy gear over on the RED forums, which is also where he promises his crew will be making further comments detailing the user experience."

3D has a great CGI application... but it really doesn't add anything to a live action movie... to hell with 3D live action!

The only good Spider-Man to date was the second one and I don't see this coming close it. I am tired of these heroes' origins. We only need to see them once or in the opening credits. Give us a NEW story, not a new take on the origin. High school again? F the reboot.

sorry guys, right it's sony who f**k this up. anyway i don't like reboot, especially when the last spidey movie is only 3 years old. they could have just fixed the things that needed to be fix and make a great spidey 4 but no they got to shove it down our throat another goddam origin story. who wants a teenage Peter? i want to see him evolved from his last adventure.

As I posted in the other article, I find it weird that they are using the RED instead of Cameron's 3D camera....

The way I see it, its better they are filming this using 3D cameras rather than doing a horrible post production Conversion
