Cloud Render; Change the Way of CG Production

Cloud computing is getting popular in recent years and cloud render which is based in cloud computing is becoming the trend for CG production. On one hand, lots of artists have enthusiasm to render farm service, being quite supportive; on the other hand, some of them doubt it from render service aspect, data safety aspect or cost aspect. Using cloud render farm or building one on their own, these thoughts keep wandering in users’ head and keep users away from cloud render service.


Fox Renderfarm has been waiting to provide a better render service to every user by the help of cloud computing technology and its own features and advantages. This is a process of waiting, waiting for users getting used to cloud render service.

In CG industry, there are a certain amount of people getting known to cloud render, most of who are from film production, TV production, animation production and architectural design industry. For animation production, rendering is no doubt one of the core aspects. It would be a huge blow for the creative concept if the visual effects do not come out good. The rendering effects will affect the visual experience of a whole animation. Therefore, choosing a secure, fast and affordable render farm is very important for CG studios. Traditional render farm is mainly public platform and financed by one party, renting to companies. A shared rendering production line is far more complicated than a general heterogeneous platform. Plus, different users have different requirements for CG software and hardware. It is inevitable that cloud render will replace traditional render farm in future.

Though cloud render has shown its powerful potential as it shows up, it still needs to be improved and supported by more users.
