General

As an Activity

Activities are usually: Speaking, Attentive, or Idle.

However, when the Pose obscures the Activity (such as facing away from camera), or when the importance of the Pose supersedes the importance of the Activity, then “General” is used to designate the activity of the model.

For example, if the Object Pose is used when a Character is showing a Prop to his or her interlocutor(s), that is more important than whether he or she is Speaking or Attentive, so their Activity may instead be designated as General, if there aren't enough model assets to render both in combination.

As a Pose

Poses are usually: Forward Pose, Looking Left Pose, Looking Right Pose, or their sitting equivalents.

However, when the importance of an Activity supersedes the importance of the Pose, “General” is specified instead. For example, the Idle Activity is a more important indicator than which way their attention is directed (or, really, it kind of means their attention isn't directed), so when a Character is engaged in the Idle Activity, their Pose is specified as General.
