Thanks to growing high-speed internet access, production studios now have new options for rendering their animations in the cloud. Online render farms, like Fox Renderfarm, offer studios enormous rendering power at low costs.

GPUs have been used for displaying on-screen graphics for years, but using them to render final outputs is just now coming of age. Many popular rendering packages have GPU based alternatives to their flagship software.

In 1991, a student named Linus Torvalds began developing a new operating system as a hobby. That hobby, which would later be called Linux, forever changed the world of computers.

When we think of 3D animation, we imagine an artist sitting at a work station plugging away in software like 3DS Max or Cinema 4D.

3D rendering has become a favorite technique for graphic designers, filmmakers, architects, and more, and cloud rendering plays an important role in the industry. This post tells you how cloud rendering is useful for 3D rendering.

Funding for research in HPC – particularly in the U.S. – is under constant scrutiny and as a result innovation and discovery suffers. While SC has done an excellent job at promoting some global HPC innovations.

What is a Render Farm? a render farm is a cluster of computers which are used to provide CGI (computer generated imagery) through a batch processing method.
