RES was headquartered in New York City.[1] When the magazine first launched, it carried the tagline "The Magazine of Digital Filmmaking".
Jonathan Wells served as the editor-in-chief and later editorial director, while Karol Martesko-Fenster served as publisher.
In July 2000, Holly Willis took over as editor-in-chief and oversaw a redesign of the magazine by Trollback + Company. Starting with the September/October 2002 issue, the magazine evolved into a lifestyle magazine for creators covering the fields of film, music, art and design. Since the redesign, all issues of the magazine were bundled with a DVD that was sent to subscribers. The DVDs featured short films, music videos and music. RES was the first U.S. publication to include a DVD with every issue of the print publication.
The October 2006 issue of RES was the last issue to be printed.[1] A new hybrid magazine format was supposed to be launched by RES in 2007, and was intended to be published in several media. However, it was not materialized.[1]
RES was published by RES Media Group, which also produced the international touring film festival, RESFest.[1]
