Unlike most of the the other pre-production documents in this section, assets logs don't help show what a product will look like or how they will work. Instead they help teams manage the creation process in a more organised way.

You will have used assets tables in your portfolio work. These are similar to the assets logs used by production teams, although yours is probably quite a lot simpler.
