July 15, 2003 — DigitalScape and Iwill announced today how they were able to help make the SFX in Terminator 3 better:
One of the visual effects studios, Digiscope, used DigitalScape Visual Computing Workstations to composite scenes of the Terminator characters and T-X “Skynet designed” cyborgs. Digiscope took advantage of the Dual Processing capability of Intel. Xeon processors with Hyper-Threading technology to reduce the amount of time required to enhance visual effects through the compositing process required during final editing process of the entire film. Compositing is an often processor, graphics and memory demanding process required to enhance color, shades, visual lighting and special effects in the last stages of film editing.
“For Terminator 3: Rise of the Machines, Digiscope provided digital artistry in the form of compositing, “ says Dion Hatch, Chief Operating Officer of Digiscope. “We are a user of DigitalScape Visual Computing Workstations, based on Iwill motherboard technology. These systems give us the performance and service that we need to get our job done. When it comes to speed and performance, the DigitalScape workstations provide the power to get us thru processor and graphics intensive scenes”.
