Renegade Technology builds IT infrastructure for creative teams who move fast and can't afford downtime. From post houses to media agencies, we architect solutions that scale with your ambitions. Below are the six core areas where we make the biggest impact.
Building an internal IT team means finding rare expertise — Mac-savvy engineers who understand creative workflows, media storage, and production deadlines. Then you need redundancy. One person gets sick or leaves, and you're stuck. When a Mac crashes before a client deadline, you need answers now, not 'let me Google that.'
We function as your IT department — handling daily support, troubleshooting, account management, and infrastructure monitoring. Every request is tracked with SLA-backed response times. We learn your environment, document everything, and prevent issues before they disrupt work. You get predictable monthly costs instead of surprise invoices.
Response times in minutes, not hours
All requests tracked and prioritized
On-site support when you need it
Proactive monitoring prevents disasters
Fixed costs, no surprises
Email ticketing systems? Creative teams ignore them. Requests scatter across Slack DMs, texts, and hallway conversations. IT has no visibility. Common questions (password resets, software access) eat up time that should go toward real problems. When production crunches hit, response times crater.
We deploy AI-powered help desks inside Slack or Teams. Users get help where they already work. AI handles the repetitive stuff instantly — password resets, software installs, knowledge base lookups. Complex issues escalate to humans with full context. Tier 1 support becomes autonomous. Your team focuses on strategy, not tickets.
30-40% of requests resolved by AI instantly
Hours-long wait times reduced to minutes
Everything tracked in one system
Logging and central tracking of all requests
Users never leave Slack or Teams
Seamless human escalation when needed
Creative workflows crush standard office networks. 4K timelines, RAW footage, render output — consumer gear can't handle it. Slow transfers. Dropped frames. Outages that halt production. Storage fills up. Drives fail. No backup plan. Teams scale, performance tanks.
We build infrastructure matched to your workload. Small teams get enterprise WiFi, managed firewalls, and high-performance NAS with automated backups. Growing medium to large studios need 10-25+ GbE networks with segmentation, enterprise grade NAS/SAN media storage, optimized workstations and hybrid cloud integration. Everything monitored 24/7. Tiered storage: blazing fast NVMe SSDs for active projects, spinning disk HDDs for near-line, cold cloud or LTO for archive.
Network speed for 4K/6K multi-user editing
WiFi that actually works everywhere
Redundant storage prevents data loss
Tiered architecture optimizes cost vs. speed
Monitoring catches failures early
MacBooks for Producers. Mac Studios for Editors. Powerful Windows workstations for 3D Artists. iPads for remote color sessions with clients. Without central management, every device is a unique snowflake. Software drifts. Patches get skipped. Lost devices become security nightmares. Manual onboarding wastes days. Compliance? Inconsistent at best.
We deploy MDM platforms to manage everything — macOS, iOS, Windows. Devices auto-enroll, apply security baselines (encryption, firewall, screen lock), and install apps without IT touching them. Antivirus deploys fleet-wide. Updates get staged and tested. Lost devices? Remotely wiped. We track every piece of hardware, software, and license.
Entire fleet managed from one dashboard
80-90% reduction in deployment time via automation
Zero-Touch deployment — ship devices directly to end users
Security policies enforced automatically
Lost devices remotely locked/wiped
Real-time hardware and license inventory
Modern production is distributed. Your colorist is in London. Editor in Austin. Client reviewing on their phone. Traditional on-premise workflows don't cut it. Teams cobble together WeTransfer, Dropbox, Zoom, and email — creating version chaos, security gaps, and endless context-switching. Add generative AI and cloud editing to the mix? Good luck.
We build end-to-end workflows optimized for how you actually work. Production management integrated with creative tools. Cloud editing for distributed teams. Render farm pipelines. Generative AI deployment. Client review consolidated into one platform. Everything scales without breaking. Everything meets security requirements. Creative flexibility meets IT governance.
No more tool-switching or version chaos
Remote collaboration without VPN headaches
Production management meets creative tools
Generative AI deployed securely
Client review streamlined
One content leak destroys everything. Multi-million dollar lawsuits. Lost clients. Dead reputation. Studios require MPAA TPN assessments or equivalent security controls. Insurance demands cyber liability compliance. Generic MSPs implement security that either fails audits or cripples creative work.
We implement security frameworks that work for production environments. Enterprise-grade protection balanced with creative reality — tight deadlines, contractors, external collaboration. Infrastructure based on MPAA TPN controls, SOC 2 principles, and cyber insurance requirements. Tested against real studio questionnaires before audits. Documented, auditable, defensible.
Endpoint protection with EDR (SentinelOne, CrowdStrike) on all production devices
Least-privilege access control — contractors see only projects they're assigned to
Data segmentation via network zoning and encrypted project-specific storage
Secure remote access via zero-trust VPN or cloud workstation architectures
Audit logging and SIEM integration for all content access and administrative events
Content security protocols aligned with MPAA TPN best practices
Vendor security questionnaire support, documentation, and evidence gathering
Cyber insurance compliance — encryption, MFA, backup verification, incident response plans
Pass studio security reviews and vendor assessments
Meet cyber insurance requirements
Zero content leaks post-implementation
Compliance without killing productivity
Complete audit trail when you need it
