An Industry-Changing Solution

When RIT alum John Traver launched his own production company, he found the video editing process to be cumbersome in how editors and clients review and provide feedback on all aspects of video production. Recognizing these challenges led Traver to build a better solution. Frame.io enables online workspaces where video, photo, and audio assets are uploaded for clients and others to provide real-time feedback. As a result, Traver and Frame.io have reshaped the creative industry.

I grew up making skateboarding videos and was very interested in computer-aided design, 3D modeling, and animation. RIT allowed me to explore a wide range of disciplines across the fields I found most interesting.

RIT Blends Technology, the Arts, and Design

RIT’s motion picture science major provided Traver with a unique combination of knowledge in film, animation, and engineering. He graduated with the technical and design knowledge needed to assemble and manage a team of technologists, craftspeople, and designers to tackle the distinctive challenges found in today’s cross-disciplinary workplace. It’s one way RIT is preparing tomorrow’s leaders today.
