Producing with generated material
Producers and post supervisors who have to schedule, budget, clear and deliver work that includes generated shots.
8 steps, in order
-
Cost and iteration
Generation is priced by attempts, and attempts are how the work gets good.
-
Reproducing a shot
Revisions months later depend on records you have to keep from day one.
-
What is unsettled
You need to describe the risk accurately to clients, insurers and lawyers.
-
Pipeline commitments
Confidentiality, version pinning and licence territory are production decisions.
-
Methodology and bidding
The existing discipline for deciding how a shot gets made, and for costing it honestly.
-
Continuity as a deliverable
Somebody has to own whether the shots match, and it is not the model.
-
Media and provenance
Naming, versioning and tracking what came from where is the job that keeps the delivery defensible.
-
Making it match
Generated and photographed material have to sit in the same grade.
