HUGO
Creating Hugo, Martin Scorseseâ
€™s first 3-D movie, took a lot of
imagination. But it also took a lot of
processing power — one fantastic
scene alone would have taken
19.5 years to render if just a
single computer had been used.
RENDERING just one version of one
shot of the film — the swooping view
into the train station, shown at the
beginning of the movie — took
171,015 hours of processing time.

€™Orsay - among the cogs and
mechanics of the great station clock.
