Services:
• designing and integrating Final Cut Studio editing systems and most importantly, optimizing the hardware and system settings to give FCP every bit of performance it can have. (We apologize in advance if “render breaks” become too short to get a coffee!)
• installing Mac OS X Server for reliable File Sharing, Web & E-Mail (to name just a few things it can do)
• designing and customizing FileMaker Pro databases to track the hundreds of audio & video elements required for each job. (are you still doing this on a spreadsheet?)
• appraising new office sites and/or meeting with architects and contractors to ensure that the infrastructure (power, cooling, networking) and/or construction plans adequately meet the needs of server rooms and workstations.
• redesigning and upgrading computer networks to make them 10 - 100 times faster, saving untold hours.
• analyzing power needs and installing Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPSs) to protect editing workstations, servers, and storage from damaging “brownouts”, power surges, and data corruption.
• troubleshooting of Avid Symphonies, Media Composers and ExpressPro systems to allow editors to get back to work and keep working. (Don’t let just any IT guy touch your Avid! Seriously.)
• providing expert purchasing advice for MacBook Pros, Mac Pro Desktops, and XServes, or anything with an Apple logo for that matter - hardware or software.
