PAward-winning creator Mitchell Kriegman chooses NVIDIA Quadro® FX by PNY Technologies® for his new PBS KIDS® series

"It's a Big Big World", created by Mitchell Kriegman, (creator of Emmy award-winning Bear in the Big Blue House, Clarissa Explains It All, and Book of Pooh) is an innovative new PBS KIDS preschool series. The series, based around a giant loveable sloth named Snook, combines bun raku puppetry, animatronics and CG animation in a virtual jungle environment. Kriegman uses a real-time compositing technique, which he developed, called Shadowmation to produce "It's a Big Big World". Brainstorm, a 3D virtual blue screen program, paired with the NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY graphic board, is the virtual set engine integrated into this new technology. Designing for the future "The NVIDIA Quadro FX by PNY graphic boards will enable Wainscott Studios to develop real-time HD and 2K film effects solutions that will not need post rendering. The savings in time and expense could revolutionize the film and television industry," said Mitchell Kriegman, owner Wainscott Studios & Creator-It's a Big Big World.
