Re: Animation for Television

Hi Sri,

I've got no doubt that it can be cheaper on linux. At a minimum I'd
suggest you use linux for your servers and workstations. I've also
written renderfarm management software that may interest you
http://sf.net/projects/splish (no official release yet as I need to
make a few things easier for general users - unfortunately setup is
one of those - which is annoying as it's a on off task).

The main challenge you'll have using OS software for the actual
artistic work will be getting good artists who are familiar with open
source packages such as blender. However if you can get someone in who
can trainyour artists and a good pipeline TD prepared to learn the
packages and get it all integrated then I've got no doubt you can
successfully run a full scale children's television production on
FLOSS software.

Cheers,

Alan.
