We are proud to follow in the footsteps of Arthur Chatelain (recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences for his team's contribution to Technicolor) and H. H. MacDavid (engineer who worked at Lockheed on the L-1011 and SR-72 among other planes) in helping innovations reach their full potential.
