Framestore

World-renowned visual effects (VFX) company Framestore is changing the way we see and explore our world, through movies, advertising, and immersive digital experiences. From offices around the world, Framestore’s VFX artists work night and day to transport us to new places and bring our favorite characters to life. Framestore partnered with Pixit Media and NetApp to empower its global integrated advertising team with higher performance and nonstop access to data.

To meet demand for fast, reliable data access throughout the creative process, Framestore’s integrated advertising division chose Pixit Media’s PixStor software-defined scale-out storage solution running on NetApp E-Series systems. With this solution in place, Framestore can ensure performance and consistency across all five sites; can take a cost-effective, simplified approach to disaster recovery; and has a modular infrastructure to support multiple workflows and future expansion.
