Assessment 110.4
DreamWorks Technology
DreamWorks use world class technology The technology they use provide the
fundamental tools to provide visually stunning animations
Powerful processing from Intel and immense technology from HP
DreamWorks
HP provided: Converged Infrastructure (Hardware and Software in a single case)
Servers (Software that receives orders and sends responses)
StorageNetworkingServicesSoftware Management Workstations PrintersDigital Rendering
What Where the Contributions of HP in the Animation 'The Croods'?
DreamWorks had to rely on HP servers and services in rendering farms (HP, 20013, Pg 1) positioned in Glendale City, Redwood City, Las Vegas and India to render and generate characters.
HP delivered the power to render large amounts of data
According to HP, their ProLiant BL460c Gen8 server blades gave DreamWorks more than 40% throughput (rate of processing) with more than 42% improved performance then earlier gens, increasing render capabilities.
Demands of Massive Computing
HP’s workstations enabled DreamWorks to create many creatures and incredible landscapes.
HP workstations Z820 Allows the artist to work on a much larger andcomplex scenes
Artistic Capabilities
Software optimized by IntelIntel helped cut production cost by helping
animation software production quicker
Intel Processing Power to help Create How to Train Your Dragon 2
Apollo software processed and collaborated from Intel
Five years for Intel and DreamWorks to create new software called Apollo which allowed the artist to make real-time changes and animations to characters
Apollo Software
PrEMO is a tool which instantly gave the artist a large amount of processing power that allowed them to make changes to characters in high resolution detail
PrEMO
Torch is a tool also powered by Intel that gives an interactive asset to lighting and management.
Allows artist to create character focus by adding or removing lights
Very uniqueVery quick and easy for shadow editing and
