Tractor Media - Xmas 2010

This is an animation which was created using 3ds max and iray, and we are sending it to our friends and customers as a holiday greeting.

It was also our first test with iray. iray was excellent for this type of animation, proving its speed with glossy reflections, and all this at an amazing quality. Real depth of field was a spoil, and gave the renders a better macro lens look. The only thing that prevented us from achieving photorealism in this animation was our lack of time to animate and render the whole thing, and to learn the specifics of iray.

What were the production statistics on this? Render times, systems, GPUs.

Nice work.

[TractorMedia]

@JamieCIay Render times were linked to the video card we used. Therefore, on the same core i7 machine, using an overclocked 460gtx gave us an average time of 10 mins/frame, an overclocked 260gtx an average of 20 mins/frame and a 9600gt a mere 60 mins/frame.
