The Tech
RENDERING - It's all about Mental Ray. So that's what we're
using. Only Mental Ray allows us the flexibility of superb area
lighting, fast radiosity, efficient displacement and crisp and fast
renders.COMPOSITING - It's all about
Shake. Shake has allowed us to seamlessly comp, divide, augment,
glow entire scenes with a speed and workflow second to none (except
maybe a Flame but we can't afford one of those). It is a film by
fans (not millionaires).
HARDWARE - We've got a 43 cpu farm that's
completely going to waste. So what better use for it than to crank
out chromy 3D goodness of Bender, Zoidberg, Slugs or "Special
Originally Created Character".
QUALITY - We're not content with the
quality of Internet based animations, so our original renders will
all be at full 1080p quality (that's 1920x1080 for those who aren't
aware). The reasoning for this resolution is longevity, our need to
showoff, and without such a res we can't put it to film and enter
animation competitions, which is of course something we want to win.
COFFEE - Braun. Coffee is what keeps this
production going. Without our Braun coffee maker we'd simply die.
