Quote - Does louguet know how long these animations may take if they were 720x576 (pal) - and also - would a pal size animation look OK on a 40-50inch plasma screen?

Thanks for the help that you are offering

Mmm sorry no I can't tell you a precise estimate, it depends on too many things. AndI had not the computing power I have now when I rendered these anims. In fact it all depends on the effective power of your renderfarm. You should do a few tests yourself with a simple anim.

 As for the 40/50 inch screen 720x576 (DVD) should be ok if people who watch are far enough, but I would recommend 1280 x 720 (HD 720p).
