Production built around your outcome.

Our 3D work lives in Cinema 4D, Blender, and Houdini, with rendering in Redshift and Octane. We produce photorealistic product visualization, CGI brand films, and complex motion sequences for tech and consumer brands that need the product to look real on screen.

All workOur 3d animation process
3D Asset Brief
We gather product files (CAD files, physical samples, reference photography) and brief the look: materials, lighting environment, camera style, color. Precision here saves days in post.
Modeling & Rigging
Our 3D artists build or refine the product model to the level of fidelity the video requires. For product launches, we model to photorealistic spec — you shouldn't be able to tell the render from a photograph.
Scene Build & Lighting
We build the full scene environment: lighting setup, materials, background, and any supporting elements. We deliver styleframe renders for approval before animation begins.
Animation & VFX
Camera paths, product motion, environmental effects, and particle systems are animated frame by frame. Render queues run overnight; we deliver daily WIP previews.
Compositing & Delivery
Final compositing in After Effects or Nuke: color grade, depth of field, lens effects, and any 2D element integration. Delivered in 4K or higher as required.
Why brands choose us for 3d animation
Proven commercial results
The Ridge launch video: 4.2M views, 100K+ products sold. We treat 3D as both craft and sales tool and build each piece around the metrics it needs to move.
Software-agnostic pipeline
Cinema 4D, Blender, Houdini, Maya — we work in whatever environment the project requires. Houdini for complex simulations, Cinema 4D for product visualization, Blender for cost-effective execution.
Photorealistic quality
Our Redshift and Octane renders pass the 'is it real?' test. For premium consumer products — watches, tech hardware, CPG — the bar is photorealism, not stylized animation. We meet it.
CAD-to-render pipeline
We accept CAD/STEP files directly from engineering teams. No need to have design create a separate 3D model — we work from the same geometry that built the product.

A 30–60 second 3D product visualization runs $12,000–$25,000. A full 3D brand film with environment build and complex animation runs $30,000–$80,000+. Key cost factors: model complexity, number of unique scenes, render time, and whether 2D/live-action elements are integrated.
