Hi.
I´ve been working as support engineer in postporduction VFX facilities for 13 years. I can make scripts but i never developed software in a professional way.
I know how vfx works and can make basic works in almost all common vfx and cgi software. Also i can admin network and IT.
I like to build a robust pipeline so i want to begin serious development. I´m kind of lost because i can do programming but don´t know wich are the best practices.
I need help to start from begining chosing the right tools and methods. I supposed i need an IDE and/or subversion control software. I heard about some of them, like SVN, GIT, Perforce, etc.
So any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
