This final segment steps through the new input versioning feature in Baselight. Input versioning can be done either by using filenames or making use of the Open Clip XML format, which means that a scene can be updated with new versions of shots, providing considerable time savings in quick-turnaround VFX jobs where new versions are constantly arriving.
