3D Product Animation and How it’s Transforming the Industry

Image
3D product animation is a new and innovative way of showcasing products. It is created by combining 3D modelling, 2D illustrations, and video for the purpose of advertising or selling products. This type of animation can be used in many different scenarios such as car showrooms, online stores, trade fairs, etc. How Does the Process of 3D Product Animation Work? A 3D product animation company usually starts with a sketch or a rough model to create the shape of the object. This sketching phase typically takes around 4 hours to complete. Then, once this step is completed, they move onto creating photorealistic images for each detail on the object using computer software like Zbrush and Maya. This process usually takes around 10 hours to complete. Finally, after all these steps are completed an animator starts working on rendering which takes about 20 hours. 3D Product Animations – The Benefits of Using Them 3D product animations are becoming more and more popular for many reaso...

4D Animation and 4D Construction Animations

Image
2D animation, 3D motion graphics, and now 4D animations are taking corporate video to a new level. Now everybody knows what 2D and 3D animation is, but what is 4D animation? A 4th dimension is essentially 3D video but with the effect of interaction. So this involves you, the audience, watching a 3D video and having an input into it, such as clicking to access certain sections of the video or bringing up certain annotations. However this is just the standard type of 4D animation, there’s a lot more to it than what you might see on the surface. 4D construction animations are a unique and very special type of 4D animated video production. To sum it up briefly, they are 4D phasing animations of lots of different aspects of a basic construction animation. The best way to describe how these are made is that a lot of them are built from computer game engines, and look that way too. They are more complex in design, and they have to be, as they give the user full control over looking ove...

Why you should use GIFs in your marketing

Image
We’ve all seen them. GIFs are everywhere. Moving images, short animated videos, without sound, that continue over and over on a loop. Often small, and very popular on social media. These little snippets are great for marketing. How so? Well many social media sites are prone to show images and very short videos in their algorithms over longer forms of media. Research has also shown that using a mix of colour and visuals increase the willingness to view the content by 80%. Colourful imagery does really help to increase your audience’s engagement, and having an animated version of these images will only drive this harder. GIFs only last a few seconds, or however long you wish them to be. For this reason, their file size is significantly smaller making the process of uploading and loading them much more efficient and speedier. They’re also usually short and sweet, so people don’t spending a minimal amount of time watch them. And if they’re as good as they should be, the entertaining...
