Naming files

When sending files this is how they should be labeled. Doesn't need to be exact, just consistant.
Gerald_Background#_subject_object_stage_###.ext
  1. Backgrounds (BG) - there are 20 backgrounds- when lableling if you don't know background write Scene number (Sc)
  2.  Subject = Prop, Character (Name of character) Object (obj), background (BG), Storyboards (SB), Naration (s.voice), Sound Efect (s.FX)
  3.  Object /action = examples: broom, run, skatboard... 
    • sound - first 3 words abreviated or sound effect name
  4. Stage = sketch/ layout/ color/ final/ other
  5.  number = Always label w/ 3 extention numbers 

Examples:
Background = Gerald_BG#_ subject_#.ext
Gerald_BG19_Sketch_002.jpg

Prop = Gerald_BG#_prop_name_#.ext
Gerald_BG12_prop_broom_001.png

Single frame character = Gerald_BG#_ characterName _ action_frame#.ext
Gerald_BG12_Gerald_runPorch_fr005.png
