Practical Advice for Artists Today

• Use GPU or hybrid rendering for lookdev and interactive iteration, switch to CPU or hybrid for final passes if you need features not yet supported on GPU.
• Take advantage of AI denoisers to lower sample counts, but validate fine-detail regions to avoid denoiser artifacts.
• Use VFB LightMix and layering for test iterations — saves time vs full re-renders.
• Adopt USD-based pipelines for large teams to gain robustness in lookdev and versioning.
• Keep materials PBR/physically plausible to ensure consistent behavior across renderers and real-time engines.
