Some of the challenges that Bad Clay studio faced were:

  • Rendering time: The film had over 1000 shots with VFX that needed to be rendered. Some of these shots were very complex and involved hundreds of elements; such as characters, environments, lighting, shadows, reflections, smoke, fire, water and more. So, rendering these shots on their own machines would take too long and delay their deadlines.
  • Rendering quality: The film had to meet high standards of quality and realism for both domestic and international audiences. The VFX had to match seamlessly with the live-action footage and create a believable illusion. To achieve this level of quality, Bad Clay studio needed to use high-end CPU; and GPU servers with various software and plugins supported.
  • Rendering cost: The film had a limited budget for VFX production. Rendering on their own machines would consume a lot of electricity and maintenance costs. Renting or buying more machines would also be expensive and impractical. Bad Clay studio needed a cost-effective solution that would allow them to pay only for what they use.
