County Hall Animation Studio Enterprises
Chase is Britain's first Anime House, with its studio in the revitalised County Hall on the river Thames. The studio provides anime services and are developing a slate of feature film and television productions. Chase offers clients a unique one-stop service, including concept work, scriptwriting, storyboarding, production and post-production for music promos, titles, business films and commercials.
Chase are expanding quickly and need workstations for their animators. Having previously installed a Pixelution server and storage they approached us to quote on some Workstations for their animation department. Up against stiff competition from Dell Computing this was one we wanted to win.
Chase had a good idea of what they where looking
for and in the end we provided systems that most animators would
be proud to have at their desk. Taking full advantage of Intel's
latest Quad-Core Xeons coupled with 4GB of DDR2 RAM and a 15k
rpm SAS system disk these systems are ideally suited for a
variety of digital content creation tasks. Coupled with
Nvidias Quadro FX4500 graphics card they make for a perfect 3D
animation station.
The initial batch of machines proved such a hit with the
animators that the compositors demanded some for their
department. Nine machines later and everyone's happy.
"The Pixelution workstations are always
a focus of attention with visitors.
They looks great and their raw speed makes using them a dream."
