Every time that I’ve started working on a production, be it a film or video game, the issue of naming comes up. Nobody likes the way things have been named on previous productions, and yet no one wants to be the person that creates and enforces a naming convention. Can you blame them? It’s never fun to be the person who has to put the figurative “smack down” on a production team to get them to name things correctly. Naming conventions can have various levels of stringency. The most basic of naming conventions covers just the characters used to name files and directories in a production tree. A step beyond that could be setting some rules for naming files of a specific asset-type. And so forth. I imagine with some effort you could cover most every file in the production. So what is a good balance between the chaos of having no naming conventions and the draconian restrictions of too many?
