Producers are responsible to create a project plan in Ftrack. This must include project events for each department, bid days and respective duration.
All Events must be plotted based on the approved quote, even if some brief information still missing. E.g. Scanning, references, etc. Producers need to specify that in the name of the event (TBC, Waiting for info, or other).
Events duration may be different from from bid days. Often slightly longer to accommodate any contingency time for amends and QC.
Producer is responsible to inform Project Plan completion to Studio Managers just so they can action and confirm the resource plan.
Modelling Producer is responsible for assigning modellers to the unassigned events that Producers created.
Once resource has been confirmed, Producer is able to share the Project Plan with the client. Either in Ftrack format or client friendly Google Sheet timeline.
Modelling Producer / Producers are responsible for updating modelling events on a daily basis, coordinating/communicating with HOD, Modellers and other Producers about the modelling progress.
Producers are responsible for creating modelling tasks with unassigned 3D Modeller.
All tasks needs to contain bid days, briefing information, links, etc. filled by Producers.
Tasks priority may be filled in by Producers or Modelling Producer to help prioritise work.
Modelling Producer is responsible for assigning modellers to the tasks and schedule these based on the event dates.
Producers to fill in bid days based on project quote, in some occasions we may need to use 'Est. Days' column (optional), in order to provide a more accurate plan considering realistic timings.
Modelling HoD is responsible for adding Est. days for models
Modelling HoD can delegate that task to senior members in modelling team if needed.
Modelling Producer is responsible for planning/scheduling the tasks by setting Start date and Due date.
Tasks scheduling need to be kept updated based on modelling events. Any adjustments on the modelling event must be reflected in the tasks duration as close as possible.
Producer to setup Brief meeting with 3D Modellers and allow time for Ftrack brief and references to be reviewed prior to starting the tasks.
3D Modellers ideally need to review the Brief information, references, and timings before the Brief meeting. Just so any questions can be discussed on the brief call.
3D Modellers need to create Image Previews of their models and upload them as versions in Ftrack - create Viewport Video presentation and add it as a first note in Ftrack review system.
3D Modellers to update their tasks' status to ''For Internal Review''.
Producers and Modelling HoD have the responsibility to QC the models. Models needs to be reviewed in Ftrack.
Any comments or changes must be added in Ftrack and respective tasks' status updated.
Once Project is 100% finish, Producer needs to change the status of approved models to ''To Publish''
Asset Library Manager or Modeller needs to Publish the model in Connector
Stylists needs to sort all UNCATEGORIZED models in Connector
