SIGGRAPH Camera-Ready

A SIGGRAPH accept is a conditional accept: your paper is not done until a Technical Papers Committee member has verified the final version in the second reviewing process. The output is an ACM Transactions on Graphics (TOG) journal article (e.g., SIGGRAPH 2026 = TOG Vol. 45, Issue 4), so the camera-ready is a journal production task, not a proceedings cleanup. Facts below trace to resources/official-source-map.md; reconfirm the current TOG production checklist and deadlines.

Clear the conditions first

Conditional acceptance came with required changes. Before any production polish:

Turn every condition from the decision and reviews into a concrete edit, and keep a change map the second-stage reviewer can follow.
Re-run and re-render anything a condition touched — a corrected artifact means a re-rendered video and re-generated figure, not a caption edit.
Do not smuggle in unrequested new results that could reopen the review; deliver the conditions, strengthen the writing, stop.

TOG journal metadata and rights

Because the paper publishes as a TOG article, complete the journal apparatus:

ACM rights form (eRights) — obtain the correct copyright/permission block and DOI, and paste the exact rights text and DOI into the paper.
ACM CCS concepts and author keywords — required TOG metadata; pick concepts that match the contribution, not a generic list.
ACM Reference Format citation and the correct TOG volume/issue/article-number/month; the article number replaces page ranges in the journal.
ORCIDs and confirmed author order and affiliations — the author list was locked at the form deadline; only correct affiliation/spelling, not membership.

Format and length at final

Recompile against the current acmart (>= 2.16) class in the journal (acmtog) format the final version requires; do not modify the class file.
The single-column journal layout differs from the review PDF — reflow figures and the teaser, check that no figure crosses the margin, and confirm all fonts embed.
Journal-track final versions may relax the review page cap; confirm the current-cycle length policy and the figures-only-page rules before adding material.

The final media are part of the publication

Representative image — supply the high-resolution final still the program and DL will use.
Final supplemental video — re-encode at the required resolution/codec; caption it; ensure it matches the accepted (revised) results, and that you hold rights to every frame.
Permanentize code/data links — replace any review-time placeholder with a stable archive (Zenodo DOI or Software Heritage) so the published article's links do not rot; this also sets you up for the Graphics Replicability Stamp (see siggraph-artifact-evaluation).

Production checklist

[Conditions] every required change made and mapped for the second-stage reviewer? yes/no
[Class] acmart >=2.16, acmtog final format, unmodified .cls, fonts embedded
[Rights] ACM eRights done; DOI + rights block pasted; ACM Reference Format present
[Metadata] CCS concepts, keywords, ORCIDs, TOG vol/issue/article number correct
[Media] high-res representative image + final results video (rights cleared)
[Links] code/data on a permanent archive (DOI/Software Heritage), not a personal URL
[Proof] re-read the compiled journal PDF cold; watch the final video end to end

Common camera-ready failures

Treating conditional accept as unconditional and skipping a required change — the second-stage reviewer can hold the paper.
Shipping a review-quality video with the journal article, or one that no longer matches the revised results.
Missing or wrong TOG article number / rights block — a production-desk bounce.
Un-embedded fonts or an outdated acmart class at final.
Leaving a personal GitHub link that will break, instead of a DOI-bearing archive.

Output format

[Camera-ready status] ready / blocked
[Conditions cleared] yes/no + change map link
[TOG metadata] rights/DOI/CCS/article-number all set? yes/no
[Media] final image + video rights-cleared and results-consistent? yes/no
[Archive] permanent code/data DOI in place? yes/no
[Blocking items] <ordered>
