Over 100 Post-production facilities Adopt Autodesk's Visual Effects Systems

Autodesk, Inc. has announced new market gains for its video post-production software. "During the past six months, more than 100 additional post-production facilities around the globe have adopted Autodesk, Inc.'s film and television solutions running on the Linux operating system. The Autodesk Linux-based systems provide digital artists and editors with increased speed and interactivity. In April 2006, Autodesk transitioned its visual effects and editing/finishing systems from SGI-based workstations to workstations running the Linux operating system. The Linux-based Autodesk Flame visual effects system renders complex 3D composites more than 20 times faster than on previous SGI-based workstations."
