On: Pixar's Render Farm

[pja]

As a specific example, Disney released the data for rendering a single shot from Moana a couple of years ago. You can download it here: https://www.disneyanimation.com/data-sets/?drawer=/resources...

Uncompressed, it’s 93Gb of render data, plus 130Gb of animation data if you want to render the entire shot instead of a single frame.

From what I’ve seen elsewhere, that’s not unusual at all for a modern high end animated scene.
