Start with a clear goal: Before building your graph, jot down what you want to achieve so your node structure stays focused and purposeful.
Build in layers: Lay out main nodes first (scene, subject, output), then add details like lighting, effects and attributes. Complex graphs become far easier to manage.
Use meaningful labels: Name each node for its role (e.g. “Main Light – Warm”, “Hero – Confident Pose”)—indispensable in big graphs.
Colour‑code or group nodes: If the editor allows, group lighting, materials, etc. visually so you can scan a graph at a glance.
Duplicate & adapt: Clone node groups for similar scenes and tweak only what’s different.
