  • @egodreas
    @egodreas Před 3 lety

    As a VFX professional, I appreciate having somewhere to send curious friends and family members who want to learn a little bit more about what I do for a living. My only point of contention would be how you use the word "assets". That word has a very specific meaning at VFX houses where proper digital asset management is necessary to produce shows on a bigger scale. In that context, every image sequence, 3d model or compositing script is an "asset" stored in your production database, carefully tracked and managed by your production tracking system (such as Shotgun or FTrack). Instead, we usually refer to the type of footage you are talking about as "elements". Different companies might use slight variations, such as "2d element", "library element" or "stock element", but it's usually something along those lines. It's perhaps not a universally adopted term, and the word "element" on its own can indeed be used in a wider sense to refer to any plate, render, or even matte painting, used in a comp. But when a supervisor asks a comper to look for suitable elements, there is generally no confusion as to what they mean.
