Breakdown
Plate against final comp, or clay against beauty. Drag the handle across to compare — two frames, or two clips playing in step.
Lookdev & texturing
Turntable, UV layout and texel density, map resolution, the shader graph. Show the material doing its job under more than one lighting condition.
Lighting
Light rig and intent — key, fill, rim, practicals. A light-by-light contact sheet reads better than one finished frame.
Rendering
Renderer and settings, sampling, AOVs, colour space, render time per frame, what the farm was. Numbers are the point of this section.
Compositing
Node graph, the passes you rebuilt from, grade and lens treatment. Raw beauty next to final grade makes the work visible.
Technical notes
One problem per entry, then what you did about it. This is the section studios read closest.
