Case Study: Jellyfish Pictures achieves faster, cost-effective blockbuster rendering with Microsoft Azure from Microsoft Corporation

Jellyfish Pictures brings blockbusters to life with the power of Microsoft Azure

Jellyfish Pictures, a London-based visual effects and animation company, needed massive computing power to create high-quality video rendering for blockbuster projects while keeping up with fast-changing, fixed-term studio demands. The company chose Microsoft Corporation’s Azure platform to support its hybrid environment and help artists work seamlessly without added infrastructure complexity.

Using Microsoft Corporation Azure, Jellyfish Pictures could quickly spin up tens of thousands of cores, launch temporary studios in new locations, and then scale them down when projects ended. This significantly reduced capital and infrastructure costs, improved flexibility, and helped the company stay ahead creatively, with Microsoft’s Linux support also strengthening its ability to manage mixed environments.
