It is essential for a Color Designer to be aware of the environmental colors that a character, prop, or FX will exist in, and it is often necessary to place assets together in a file to check that they all work harmoniously together. Note that backgrounds are typically kept flat and sometimes blurred on color models and may be roughly comped (as in not exactly registered) while still thoughtfully placed against a background for the purpose of reviewing colors.
Remember to Call the Hall!
