So i have this little animation i am working. First piece to put in my future reel. It's 450 frames...  just 18 seconds of animation. There is motion blur, particles and stuff...  but i managed to get it on a nice 60 minutes/frame on my older i7 870...

I intend to render it at work, where we have farm... but just out of curiosity, i tried rebusfarm...  i opened calculator, entered my amount of frames and rendertime, clicked calculate andHOLY SHIT!!!!!!!!!! almost 400€...  incredible...  i expected renderfarms to be expensive... but not THIS expensive...  wow...  i will probably never use any renderfarm at THESE prices :O

My anims come at 4000+ euros there, so I long time ago I figured Rebus (or any render farm) is not the way to go. It seems to be ok price for fast animation (if someone already has 5-10min. per frame on single i7), but anything else, it's just money gone into trash.
Bot it's almost universally accepted as being cheap so I really wonder, what do people render on it.

[AdamHotovy]

expensive? I found it extremely cheap. I am not doing animations usually. But having high res render quickly for 7-15euros max is really funny price for me.
Not mentioning the hassle with managing PC's at home, licences, noise and heat. I sure want to have a few spare machines at home for test. I do sometimes use small 40machine renderfarm which my friends have, but for big scale commercial project, renderfarm is the right choice. I will simply put extra line in my quote to my client as "External renderfarm" and let clients pay extra for that. Simple.

you just see the price but not the benefit
you render 450 hour for the 18sec animation - thats 19 DAYS !!
a renderfarm do the same job in 2-3 hours

you pay for the speed - not for the render  :-)

lets assume the price is 4000 euro - thats more then 190 DAYS of render
