Class Description: Configuring an Autodesk Backburner-based Render Farm can be a daunting task. We will explore all facets of creating a render farm: render node specs, configuring the software, and establishing automation and control subsystems. Not only will you learn how to configure Backburner, but you’ll also get to explore the most efficient ways to tune your farm to maximize your processing power. We will also learn how to submit and control render jobs using all three render applications: Autodesk 3ds Max, Autodesk Combustion, and Autodesk Cleaner. This class is a must for those who are looking to harness the power of a render farm.
