Render Farm Recommendations

erickdt · October 12th, 2006

Can anyone recommend me to a reliable render farm with reasonable prices?

Thanks in adavane for the help!

What software do you want to use with it? And how much rendering do you need - are we talking something simple, or hundreds of frames of animation with GI?

I've only used RenderCore in LA, they have been been good. They aren't cheap, but when you have work that needs to get done its a lot cheaper than blowing your deadline. RC supports most of the major apps, including C4D which was why I chose them.

I have several still images (20 or so). I would render them here on my computer but I'm concerned that there won't be enough time to render them at full resolution 18"x24" @ 200 ppi. I was thinking that it would take away alot of stress at the last minute if I used a render farm.

I am using VIZ 2007 with Vray 1.45.

Rendercore has a cost estimator on their site, assuming you've done some tests on the time.
