…In a real world production environment problems are going to happen.…There's no way around it.…The question you need to answer is, how am I going to fix it?…Am I going to have to go back one step, three steps, eight steps?…Am I going to have to start the entire thing all over again?…Do I have enough time in the schedule to do that?…Is there enough budget to do that?…How do I fix this problem?…Or, can I fix it right now where I sit in the current production?…In terms of in the pipeline, can I fix it right now?…Now, way back, when we simulated our cloth, in a normal production…environment, we probably would have taken…that render, rendered it without a texture.…
Without any lighting information.…Brought it into our composite, put it up against our back plate,…and then a ran preview or a cache preview, along with the footage.…And zoomed in 400%, and checked every little tiny pixel and every little detail.…That would've enabled us to see any potential problems.…Now, what we have here is a one frame pop on the cloth simulation.…
