Taming the Complexity of Digital Productions
|
|
|
The complexity inherent in the production of digital content places high demands
on production staff in terms of both time and attention which can significantly
affect the quality and cost of delivering the final product. The level of
sophistication previously associated with large scale projects such as 3D animated
films and blockbuster effects sequences are now becoming commonplace in the production
of television commercials and games. The depth of production pipelines, numbers
of artists required, and sheer data size and complexity of all digital productions
continues to increase.
This paper highlights some of the most serious challenges to digital productions
arising from this complexity and provides successful strategies for coping with these
challenges. A production visualization and automation tool called Pipeline
created by Temerity Software which implements these strategies is introduced.
