"Why were so many hands needed? Because rendering just one version of one shot of the film — the swooping view into the train station, shown at the beginning of the above clip that showcases Pixomondo’s work on Hugo — took 171,015 hours of processing time. To get it done in time for the film’s November release, they broke down each shot into jobs for 1,000 computers in five different offices."
Would love that folding army -
