Workflow ideas

Develop a production asset

Begin with the selected model, asset hierarchy and scale. In the intended Maya preview, develop a production asset; the visible result is a composed scene with geometry and camera framing visible. Review object identity, silhouette and missing assets before accepting or exporting it.

Rig and animate motion

Use the approved scene state, materials and motion intent. In the intended Maya preview, rig and animate motion; the visible result is a lighting, animation or effects preview with changed controls exposed. Review timing, material response, collisions and visual continuity before accepting or exporting it.

Light and render a shot

Start from the reviewed cameras, render settings and delivery format. In the intended Maya preview, light and render a shot; the visible result is a bounded presentation sequence or image comparison. Review frame content, colour, legibility and output specification before accepting or exporting it.
