| Red9 was born out of frustration for the lack of this kind of in-depth support that there is in the general Maya community. 
| We wanted to create full production ready tools suite which integrated seemlessly within Maya, giving users the 
| kind of pipeline support normally limited to larger studios. 

| The base of all our toolsets is the Red9 StudioPack, it's open source and has been in full production with a huge number of major studios since around 2011. 
| It's production battered, tested in anger and always growing.

| In 2013 we setup Red9Consultancy, allowing us to expand and tailor the pipelines around a larger, more complex studio based environment. 
| Supplying Rigs, Facial systems and bespoke pipelines to studios wanting a more dedicated solution. 

| To this end we now also have the Red9 ProPack, being designed alongside a number of AAA studios and including the kind of tools and workflows 
| that you can't get in a totally generic setup. To this end we extended our MetaData systems and now offer our own Red9 Puppet system.



Red9 StudioPack Modules
=======================

| The Red9 StudioPack core is coded in such a way as to allow most of the functions to be expanded upon, and used by any tech artists / programmer out there, 
| solving many common issues you find when coding in Maya. The core modules are expanding rapidly so keep up to date. Red9 main repository can 
| now be found on GitHub and I'll be branching on there every release:

Red9 ProPack Modules
====================

| The ProPack is a far more complex in-depth set of tools, designed for mid / large studios that want that extra level service and the stress taking out of production. 
| We've developed the ProPack around the needs of production, including new file management systems, our own animation format, animation re-direction systems,
| metaData based export setups, extensive HealthManagement and testing and lots more.
