“The ‘Spy Kids’ movies have a history of innovation and of using the newest technologies available to push the boundaries of the viewer experience to new heights. When I set out to create the fourth chapter of the story, I wanted to deliver a visually compelling movie that would engage and delight audiences young and old,\u201d said Robert Rodriguez. \u201cFor more than 10 years, AMD technology has consistently provided me with the quality, performance and support I need to bring to life the convergence of action-adventure storytelling and cutting-edge technology at the highest visual fidelity. AMD allows me to create quicker, composite faster and ultimately work at the speed of thought.”<\/p>\n

AMD technology was integral to realizing Rodriguez’s vision for “Spy Kids: All the Time in the World in 4D Aromascope.\u201d By leveraging the power of AMD products for record-breaking speed, Rodriguez\u2019s team made use of a unique mix of high-performance AMD hardware, including AMD FirePro\u2122 professional graphics accelerators, 24-core AMD Opteron\u2122 processor-based workstations and Dell PowerEdge \u2122 servers to produce the film on a tight timeline. In eight months, the post-production team was able to finalize the film, exceeding their work on \u201cMachete\u201d and setting a new personal best for Rodriguez and his team.<\/p>\n
