Ridley Scott’s Sci-Fi Film “Prometheus” Shot on RED Epic Cameras

Ridley Scott’s ‘Alien’ prequel has morphed into ‘Prometheus’, a sci-fi film based on the Alien universe. It still stars Noomi Rapace and will be shot on the RED Epic cameras and the Element Technica ATOM 3d rig.

• Director: Ridley Scott
• Producer: Tony Scott
• Cinematographer: Dariusz Wolski
• Starring: Noomi Rapace

Dariusz Wolski had this to say about the Epic camera:

In my opinion, the new Red Epic camera is about to revolutionize all spectrums of the film industry.

I am going to use Epics in my new project directed by Ridley Scott. I am amazed with the quality of the image and the fact that you can shoot 5k at 120fps without compromising resolution, and most of all the size of the camera.

Combined with the Element Technica Atom 3d rig, we will be able to shoot a 3d movie with the flexibility of a conventional cinema camera.

I don’t see anything that comes close to it at the moment. I can’t even imagine the potential Epic will have on the big blockbuster industry as well as independent cinema.

Check out the recently released Prometheus trailer. Looks amazing!
