WHAT WENT RIGHT THIS MONTH :
Alright. We’re one week away from release and so far nothing is on fire, though let me tell you it feels like it is. We’ve had a couple of contract gigs come our way (woohoo!) and we’re melting our render farm getting this episode out. Funny thing: We’re also experimenting with Google Cloud to render… but that should go under what went wrong :d
WHAT WENT WRONG :
Google Cloud!
Haha. It’s actually a wonderful system and we love it. We’ll be converting over a lot to it soon. Deadline is a great piece of software for managing our renders in the cloud too. The only caveat: none of this stuff is artist friendly and requires a large learning curve if you’ve never used Linux before. Still, you can learn everything by a few videos, clicks and experimentation.
