Quote - no way will i wait 2,281 years for my animation to finish rendering.  LOL.

Well I don't know about Pixar, but Dreamworks has 2500 DualCore HPs, 5000 cores total and at that rate it's a little over 6 months of non-stop rendering. Although I am sure dew to editing and cutting scenes the time is a bit shorter, maybe say a couple hundred years, give or take, LOL!!!!!! Also if you haven't Watched Shrek on DVD it worth the rent just to catch the Special Extras after the Movie to see some of the bloppers that 3D will through at you, It's Absolutely Wild what can happen.

Oh and  for the record my Avatar took roughly 40 minutes plus per frame, but I could have cut that time to mere seconds if I had rendered it at say 320x240. I rendered it at 1024x768.

Hey, All the Best with your Ani about Alaskan Natives, really sounds great and I hope it turns out well!!!!!

I would rather be Politically Incorrect,
Then have Politically Correct-Incorrectness!!!
