Interactive Product Renderings

Sometimes it's nice to let your customers experience your products from their own home. Until the holodeck is released to the public, this is the closest you can come. These are relatively quick and simple to create, whether for existing products or for things you are still dreaming up! I have posted two we have created as samples. Give me a call so we can put your products online, in 3D!

Big Changes at South Church

Last week I was contacted by South Church of Lansing. They are expanding their services and need additional space, so the decision had been made to convert the gymnasium into a temporary worship facility. This necessitated a remodel that was almost entirely mobile. They had a church meeting scheduled for yesterday evening to present the plans to the membership and vote on the budget increase to cover the equipment. JSSVD was called upon to create visualizations to assist in this presentation.
Those images follow:

Bookstore interior

Just finished a sample image of the interior of a bookstore. The layout and fixtures were based on designs by Design Identity for one of their projects. We made some adjustments and populated the shelves with books and CDs to make a photoreal presentation. Let me know what you think!

Other render styles

In the business, we usually call these non-photoreal, or "NPR". They could be a traditional media style replicating a hand sketch or a painting, or they could be very basic 3D images without reflections or even textures. Sometimes they are requested as a matter of preference - and sometimes because of the lower cost and turnaround time. And sometimes they just work better than a full photo-realistic rendering due to their simple presentation and high contrast.




Whatever the look and whatever the need, NPR renderings still make up a fair amount of our work. Because of the lower time requirements, we can sneak these in between other jobs pretty easily. But because they are not as glamorous as our photoreal renderings, they usually do not get the same attention. So I decided to use today's blog post to highlight these images. If you want more information or more examples on any of our NPR styles, give me a call!

New render slaves!

Meet Kevin, Angela, and Ryan. They just finished their first full week of rendering!

With Intel quad-core processors, they join Dwight and Andy as the fastest render boxes in the office.

JSSVD project revisited

Got a call from a client going before the city with a revision to a project we did last year. Rather than 6 houses, they wanted a version showing only 5. Also, he asked us to create a 2-story option to present. Given the work already created previously, this was pretty easy to turn around.
