gnbd BLAST & MORE - who understands this?

https://www.daz3d.com/gnbd-stone--glass-4k-project--3d-models

Anyone know what this is about?

1) What objects do you get as 3D bits? Glass shattered bits? Rock pices? The ball? The wall? a middle state of crumble/shatter?

2) Are we supposed to recombine the jpegs into an animation?

3) Use as backdrops? Are they planes? Billboards? Why Jpeg and not PNG for transparency? Alpha Channels?

4) No shaders or materials? So we have to IMPORT these pieces into Daz and add texture(s)?

5) The animations themselves are a rock ball falling and a wall breaking and glass falling? Should we have some kind of video as part of the promo?

I'm confused as what I'm supposed to do with this as far as scope AND format. They seem to be at odds with each other.

Who understands what this is about?

I'd like some rock bits and glass shards would be great, but everything else is not computing- especially it NOT being props and shaders.

    It isn't meant for Studio, or not exclusively, or even primarily.

    You can see a list of the .obj files in the ReadMe file list here: http://docs.daz3d.com/doku.php/public/read_me/index/53181/file_list - a bunch of columns, walls, pyramids (perhaps of pieces of rock, who knows?) spheres (same again?) and pieces of glass and broken glass.

    It's still pure guesswork to know what they look like - it would have been nice if the promo pictures had given a clear indication of which parts (if any) were 3D and which were 2D.

    more aimed at compositing animation

    in otherwords postwork/production in a video editor like Hitfilm, Fusion etc

    which most film producers do

    bits of footrage are filmed or rendered then combined if you watch making of videos on youtube
