About Doug Clarke

Software engineer Douglas Clarke cofounded film industry gear and software maker Blackmagic Design in Melbourne, Australia with Grant Petty in 2001.

Petty reportedly met Clarke in the 1990s at an Apple computer user group and originally hired him for a summer job.

Blackmagic Design's professional cinema cameras, electronic equipment and software known as DaVinci Resolve are used by Hollywood studios and YouTubers.

Clarke has reportedly never held a management position at Blackmagic but is known for his unflappable ability to turn ideas into working products.

Clarke is a graduate of Melbourne's Monash University, one of Australia's top universities for computer science.
