- "biggest mistake is underestimating the work"
- no production assets whatsoever
- archival footage - they license stuff out
- they negotiate w/studios re: end final product
- talk to Acting Dean - Brian Kite of School of Theater, Film & Television
- consider various ways we can implement an Asset Repository - for example:
- a small, curated set of assets representative of the complexity of our members' work (i.e. ORCA) to use for verifying/testing
- a curated set of "best practice" assets aligned with our industry's needs (USD, HDR, etc.)
- a curated set of "best practice" assets aligned with our projects needs (EXR, VDB, video footage, etc.)
- a badging system for discussing/endorsing approaches
- other suggestions?
