IBM Picks “FOODFIGHT” With Threshold Digital Labs to Shape Future of Animated Movies

Overview Threshold Digital Research Labs are expanding their work together with IBM to create next-generation digital animation studio capabilities. At the heart of the deal is IBM’s “On Demand” technology, which enables animation production facilities to be infinitely scalable. The technology puts horsepower into the hands of animators and producers when they need it allowing for high quality, high speed production at controllable costs. These capabilities will enable Threshold to simultaneously produce a number of computer-animated movies, location based entertainment, prime time TV animation and visual effects for feature films.
