I can explain this very quickly. The person saying ‘it’s the director’ is kind of an idiot and has no clue what they’re talking about. When they go to produce a movie they create ‘reference’ models and documents. This is the model that all artists work with from the start. These are all the characters and such and also major background images. This tells every artist that your work matches this mdoel and matches these styles.
