Christopher Edgar's Summary

My current post at Autodesk has allowed me to obtain a deep understanding of Autodesk Creative Finishing platforms such as Flame, Smoke, Incinerator, and Lustre. This includes an understanding of how they fit into digital and stereoscopic pipelines in conjunction with AVID and Final Cut Pro. I am also well versed in all of Autodesk's SAN and storage solutions.

My previous background also provides me with advanced understanding of TCP/IP, routing, Active Directory Services, MS Exchange, SQL Server, OpenLDAP, Linux, OSX, and Windows. I can also integrate custom hardware solutions for Compositing systems as well as high performance video storage solutions.
