SharpDX coder

I need someone to complete some SharpDX coding to take care of the low-level stuff to anble me to do the following: I'm looking to develop an app that presents multi-media layouts to end consumers. The app will allow editing of these final layouts, so must be able use techniques to draw grids and boxes around elements. In short, it needs to be able to draw: Images Text Video Simple geometry (rectangles, lines etc) Preferably, would also like: Image and text effects such as drop-shadow, blur and outline PDF display GIF display My preferable language is vb.net. Thus, I would just need to feed some classes images, videos and text (and the others preferably) in order to have it render on a standard SharpDX render window. Also, having control over the parameters is a must, too. Code must be modifiable.
