* Assets are created in the lib folder. These maybe materials, models, python scripts, etc. These should be organized into layers, and named (every datablock needs a name). Models may need multiple versions which can live in the same file, or in multiple files.
* [[Layout]] files link in assets, preferably using [[Reference_desk|reference desk]], and conform to the layer organisation guidelines.
* [[Animation_Notes|Anim]] can start after [[Layout|layout]] begins, so long as the animated assets, and non-animated parts of the scene that they interact with are finished. '''Note that animation uses the layout file'''.
* [[Lighting_and_rendering_workflow|Lighting]] can start after animation begins. Lighting files are seperate and link in the data from the anim files as objects.
* Optionally, we can render out multilayer EXRs and comp in a separate file. This can be done for complex comps where we do not want to pollute our 'artistic' comp with lighting hacks such as light and material overrrides.
