FULL REPORT:

A quiet Saturday weekend, good weather,  perfect for a weekend outing when I received a call from one of the big architects in Pune, India asking for rendering help for one of his project presentations to be held on Monday.

His designers had given up hopes of meeting the deadline. The time to render a single frame at clients end was 4 minutes. For 7000 frames the estimated time was going to to be 466 hours on single PC and almost 78 hours on 6 machines. 

We immediately asked his designers to signup with our render farm RenderingFox.com, and decided to meet at clients office in 20 minutes. Our team member reached the clients office, uploaded the files to be rendered on our server. 

On uploading and firing the render, analysis reports showed that there were design errors on file causing renders to fail. Although out of scope, our technical team worked throughout the day and overnight to figure out the problem, and were able to get a positive render early morning on Sunday. 

The next 10 minutes were spent on setting render files and appropriate frames. Rendering started 8:50 a.m and finished the 7000th frame at  9:34a.m,  40 minutes after the 1st frame. 

7000 frames rendered in 43 minutes at a average cost of just $0.02 per frame. Total cost for rendering was just $153!!

We seek to work on such challenging projects and look forward to help save you render times and at affordable prices.
