1. General Organization Techniques
2. Specific Organization Schemes and Conventions

General Organization Techniques

• Every file and folder should be lower case and only one word. Example: "file_name.ma"(If you follow this naming convention, you will increase your chances of being able to render on the linux machines)
  
• Use iterations. The most current file should be in the top most folder while the iterations should be stored in a folder called iterations. Example: the most current file would be "shot.ma", the iterations would be stored in "iterations" and be called "shot_v000.ma", "shot_v001.ma"

Specific Organization Schemes and Conventions
