Render scene
automation

A tool automating layer generation, aov creation, render settings, reference breaking, UNC path corrections... 

| Introduction

This tool necessity was obvious to me since the begining of production; from my past experiences and my teammates ones we agreed that setting up a render scene perfectly on 100+ shots was just an open gate for mistakes and most importantly an enormous time loss.

| Project Development

From there I identified the key issues :

 

- Render layer creation (in our case it was even more intricated than usual due to the requierements of our large scale environnement RIB workflow)

​

- AOV creation, with tens of AOVs time 3,4 or more light groups, this was just the most redundant task possible for a 3d artist, not to mention the custom AOVs requiering manually type the Light Path Expressions

​

- References breaking and UNC path overrides were also some far from artsy tasks that had no purpose of beeing manually done.
