Why is #OpenUSD good for teams?
Traditional file formats typically don’t support collaborative editing.
This has been changing over time with tools like Google Docs, but it is hard to have complex data structures representing 3D scenes being modified by multiple people at once.
Pixar faced this problem when creating animated movies. An animated movie includes storyboards, character design, rigging, animation, environment design, lighting, color grading, and more.
Each specialist team has different responsibilities but they all want to work on the project in parallel.
Rather than allowing collaborative editing of individual files, the Pixar solution was to design USD with powerful and consistent file merging semantics.
Each team is given a sets of files that they can edit without risk of colliding with other teams.
That is, instead of working out clever strategies to merge binary file changes, they split project files by team to avoid conflicting edits.
