  • The working group brings together practitioners and tool vendors to align conventions for moving assets, materials and scene data between the applications used across a production pipeline. Its focus is reducing friction and loss of fidelity at the boundaries between tools.
  • Outputs of such groups typically inform open standards and recommended practices that feed into formats like MaterialX and glTF. Aligning with the SIGGRAPH community gives the work visibility across graphics research and industry.
