Colleagues describe him as "I first met Wes when he was head of Automatic Duck and I was co-leader at the Final Cut Users group. Years later, when he worked at Adobe on the Prelude team, he presented to my Premiere Users group several times. Each time he not only embodied a true professional, but answered each and every question with authority and a tremendous knowledge of the business and it's end users. He really cares about the video professional and the tools we need to do our jobs. Wes Plate is all that and a truly nice person, rare in this day and age." and "Wes built a better mousetrap (or more correctly, one that didn't yet exist), and we editors have been beating a path to his door ever since.

A classic case of giving back to the professional community."

President
Automatic Duck grew out of the need I had as a video editor in the 90s to work together with Avid Media Composer and Adobe After Effects. I partnered with Harry Plate (my father) who is a brilliant software engineer to create the bridge between Avid and After Effects. Harry wrote the code and I wore the other hats.Our first plug-in that imported Avid OMF files into After Effects was released in the spring of 2001. Then we tackled the translation of sequences from Apple's Final Cut Pro into After Effects. Then we focused on translating between Final Cut Pro and Avid. Along the way we also created solutions for Discreet Combustion, Adobe Premiere Pro, Boris RED and we worked with Quantel and Autodesk on translations into their finishing systems as well.In 2011 Automatic Duck entered a "Strategic Partnership" with Adobe Systems with Adobe acquiring Automatic Duck's translation technology. The After Effects plug-in that Automatic Duck used to sell now comes with After Effects and the AAF import feature in Premiere Pro is based largely on the Automatic Duck technology.In 2014 Harry and I were both done working at Adobe and we went back to work together at Automatic Duck creating workflow solutions for Apple's Final Cut Pro X.
