Latest Spy Kids film harnesses AMD technology

AMD's graphics and server technologies were combined in making real-time artistic changes

The next film in the Spy Kids franchise will deliver high-visual 3D effects through the use of technology from AMD.

The chip vendor's graphics and server technologies were combined. They included AMD FirePro professional graphics accelerators, 24-core AMD Opteron processor-based workstations and Dell PowerEdge servers, in making real-time artistic changes quickly and enabling an organic, streamlined creative process.

The AMD technology enabled the majority of the film’s final shots to be producedon a shorter timeline, in-house, without the need for third-party production companiese.

Director, Robert Rodriguez, said, “AMD allows me to create quicker, composite faster and ultimately work at the speed of thought."

Rodriguez plans to use Vision Technology from AMD for his future Quick Draw Production projects.

Nominations for the 2012 ARN IT Industry Awards open on Tuesday, June 12.
