VFX workflows on Orion
Feature film rendering
High-frame-rate render pipelines on GPU-dense on-prem clusters with burst-to-cloud for peak deadline crunch. Provision a 120-seat render farm in minutes, not days.
Compositing & VFX
GPU time slicing lets multiple compositors share H100 nodes simultaneously. No queue. No dedicated hardware requests.
Containerized workstations
Full-featured artist workstations delivered via Helios in under 60 seconds. Same environment, same GPU performance — whether the artist is in LA, London, or remote. No client software, no VPN.
Zero disruption to your existing pipeline
Orion connects to whatever your studio already runs — Qumulo, Weka, Vast, or EFS. Standard CSI driver. No switching costs, no reconfigurations, no manual intervention required.
Hybrid cloud bursting
Run on-prem during steady state. Burst automatically to AWS EC2 GPU instances during award season crunch. Same orchestration layer, same job scripts, no manual handoff.
AI-assisted production
Run AI upscaling, denoising, and generative VFX workloads alongside traditional render jobs on the same cluster. GPU time slicing keeps every workload moving without dedicated hardware per pipeline.
Stop rendering tickets. Start rendering results.
R3D Studios doubled artist capacity on the same hardware and cut cloud spend ~40%. Ready to see what Orion does for your studio?
