PNY and Partners to showcase innovative workflows, which take advantage of the real-time capabilities, power and performance of the latest NVIDIA Quadro professional graphics solutions to dramatically improve creativity, efficiency and workflow.

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Aug. 9, 2011 — (PRNewswire) — SIGGRAPH 2011 – At SIGGRAPH 2011, PNY (Booth # 753) is showcasing how the latest NVIDIA Quadro by PNY professional graphics solutions enable complete digital workflows, from production all the way through to finishing.  Utilizing the power of the graphics processing unit (GPU), PNY is demonstrating innovative VFX workflows to maximize productivity for film and video professionals.

Highlighting these demonstrations by PNY is the world's first and only 6GB professional graphics solution, the  NVIDIA Quadro 6000 by PNY, which is combined with the Supermicro® ultra high-end Dual Processor SuperWorkstation running Autodesk® 3ds Max®.  Also presented on a Supermicro entry-level workstation is Adobe® Creative Suite®  5.5 and NVIDIA Quadro professional graphic solutions accelerating  the Adobe Mercury Playback Engine—a key component of Premiere® Pro in CS5.5.

Additionally, there is a 3DBOXX workstation equipped with the Quadro 6000, demonstrating the optimized performance of Autodesk® Maya® 3D animation software.  

"The combination of high performance NVIDIA® Quadro® by PNY graphics solutions and our partners' powerful workstations deliver best-in-class professional graphics performance," says Jeff Medeiros, Director of Marketing, PNY Technologies. "They form a perfect match to meet the needs of the most demanding VFX workflows and digital production pipelines."

Another demonstration features a cutting-edge DI solution: the NVIDIA Quadro Digital Video Pipeline, featuring an NVIDIA Quadro 6000 SDI in a Globalstor ExtremeStor DI workstation, running ASSIMILATE SCRATCH®.  This proven solution, used on many blockbuster films, independent features and documentaries delivers conform, versioning, color grading and finishing of virtually all popular camera formats up to 5K in resolution. SCRATCH's stunning visuals will be displayed on EIZO's ColorEdge CG232W SDI display, the first LCD monitor for post production and broadcasting that can be used for both reference and editing work.

For real-time Dailies playback and review, PNY will showcase the NVIDIA Quadro Plex 7000  paired with SCRATCH Lab™ which is designed specifically for on-location and VFX Dailies workflows.
