I'm wanting to create an animated film that will involve 20-30 scenes / sets.
3 main characters will be part of those scenes.

I'm thinking I will (should?) have a different iClone project for each scene / set, just to keep things manageable / modular.

The sets will vary from project to project, but the same three characters will be in all projects.

I would like to be able to import CC characters into iClone projects in a way that allows the character's appearance to be tweaked (e.g., in CC) and have that change reflected in all iClone projects that use that character. In other words, all projects *reference* that same character file (e.g., iAvatar), rather than making a copy of it.

If I change a character, I obviously wouldn't want to have to reimport it into every project.

An alternative would be to have an easy way to "refresh" a character in the iClone project from a file (e.g. manually) in a way that would preserve animation data.

Thank you.
