ELECTRONIC MATTEBOX:
It would be nice to have electronic filters in the Red camera instead of optical ones in front of the lens. An electronic "Redskin" would be overlayed onto the camera image, accompanied perhaps by a grid pattern. Previews would be seen on a color display. Color temperatures and gradiated filters could be added to the whole area of the image, or just selected areas by tracing over the "Redskin" overlay using an electronic "Redpen". The amount of gradation and softness would be selected in a menu. The redskin would be used primarily in locked-off shots, but in a later version would allow for motion tracking of the "Redskin" by selecting keypoints on the grid overlay.
