#finPipeline
finPipeline is a VFX pipeline for small team and studio use on commercial and film produciton. We believe a successful pipeline is based on providing a flexible structure that enables consistency of delivery in the face of changing creative and technical demands. Our goal is to provide a framework of tools to help in this process.
###Dependencies Here's the bare minimum of dependencies to get started:
- Bash Shell
- Python 2.7
- pip
- shyaml
- A package management program (Homebrew, Cygwin, apt-get, etc)
###Boxen If you're on OSX we highly suggest using Boxen puppet modules to do an initial install of required software. You can find our fork of https://github.com/boxen/our-boxen which has additional software installs we use in film production here: https://github.com/extrinsicmedia/finboxen
