03Services

Three service areas. One standard for quality and usability.

3D product visualization by Niklas Schoberth
03·1Material study

Photorealistic, but intentionally directed.

Every scene is composed so that material quality, lighting and product character are clearly readable. That is where the difference between purely technical 3D work and visual communication that actually works in marketing starts to show.

04Process

Six steps from briefing to final delivery.

01 · DISCOVER

Briefing

We define goals, use cases, audience and visual direction. References, data and brand guides become a clear working scope.

02 · BUILD

3D Modeling

I build or prepare your product with the right level of detail, tailored to hero shots, close-ups and potential variants.

03 · LOOKDEV

Materials & Light

Shaders, reflections, transparency and lighting are tuned until the product feels believable, premium and aligned with the brand.

04 · STAGE

Camera & Animation

Composition, camera work and timing are developed around the product and its intended use, for stills, motion or both.

05 · REVIEW

Preview & Feedback

You receive previews for review. Two iteration rounds are included so light, material behavior and image hierarchy can be refined properly.

06 · DELIVER

Final files

High-resolution renders, motion assets and final visuals delivered for web, print, social and other agreed outputs.

08FAQ

Common questions, clear answers.

3D product visualization is the creation of photoreal renders and animations that show a product with controlled lighting, accurate materials and flexible perspectives. It allows high-end product imagery to be developed even when a physical shoot is not yet possible.

Many projects fall within 7 to 14 working days. Larger campaigns or motion projects take more time depending on the number of assets, product complexity and feedback rounds.

3D rendering focuses on still imagery with controlled light and realistic material behavior. Motion design adds animation, camera movement and timing for social, launches and campaign films.

Yes. I work remotely with agencies, brands and startups across different markets, either directly or as a specialized 3D partner within larger productions.

I use Blender for modeling, scene setup and animation, Cycles for photoreal rendering, and After Effects plus Photoshop for post-production and output preparation.

Single packshots typically start from €750, campaign render sets from €2,500 and CGI motion projects from €4,500. Every project is quoted individually. See pricing →

Both. I work with CAD files such as STEP, OBJ, FBX or IGES, but I can also reconstruct products cleanly from product photos, technical drawings or visual references.
