Now the virtual reality magic begins. The shell of the 3D architectural
model is colored, textured, landscaped and furnished. Creating
3D scenes is a complicated process that involves the simulation
of real world surfaces and lighting.
The extent of the 3D scene process includes:
Applying surfaces and textures to all architectural construction
elements;
Inserting detailed furniture and interior design features;
Inserting all landscaping, trees and shrubs included;
Lighting the 3D scene;
Determining the camera angles for still artwork and architectural
renderings.
Each of these steps requires a solid technical background and
an artistic touch.
This is the stage where you, from a client's point of view, will
see the most happening. Architectural artwork takes shape and you
are issued with high
quality proof images.
A 3D wireframe scene is created.
This can be likened to a building made from matchsticks. All
faces and structural elements are in place but no materials,
colors or lighting. The solid architecture of the building
is complete.
Then we apply colors and textures to the
surfaces, such as floor coverings, fabrics to the sofas, etc.
This still doesn't look like artwork but it's taking shape.
We can still move objects around and make any alteration needed
during this process.
The scene is then lit and rendered. This
process takes a lot of computer time but the results are lifelike.
FAQ:
Question
Answer
Can I make structural changes during this
process?
Yes, you can. Our streamlined workflow
allows alterations to be made in the structural model and
be reflected in the 3D scene almost immediately. You may
be charged for alterations, depending on the type of alteration.
Can I use the proof images for my advertising?
Certainly. We can fast track your advertising
campaign by issuing high-resolution images within hours of
you approving a proof.
How many proof images will I get?
Plenty. Usually about 10 per apartment
and 2-4 per exterior scene. We don't skimp on proof images
or final rendered stills.
