Zeno is now the main building block of their in-house pipeline, kind of a backbone serving the artists and various stages throughout the production cycle. More can be found out on vfxworld, where Lucasfilm’s CTO Cliff Plumer gives away some information about the nature of Zeno: Zeno is like a collaborative scene file, a concept CG artists might know from blender and the Verse extension.
