Yeah, went to see it this weekend, there are amazing view of Paris and the
rendering is original also at the beginning I founded it quite tiring to
watch because the highlighted part of the faces seem to be in constant
movement and it sometimes makes it hard to read the facial expression
easily.
I like the snow falls as well.Definitely worth seeing,well done guys!
The studio who did it is called Attitude Studio:
http://www.attitude-studio.com/aboutus.html
There is an article on their site which says that it took them five years to
make this feature film of which 3 years of daily "really doing the thing "
on it.
The film cost 15 millions of dollars and necessitated the setup of a fibre
optic network at 1GB,300 workstations and 200 bi-Opterons servers on 2 sites
one in France and one in Switzerland.The data amounted at 2 times 12
terabytes.On scene could weight as much as 20GB.
It also says that there will be a making of the film published by Casterman
in February....could be interesting.
