The Post Process

Leveraging our extensive expertise in visual effects, virtual production and storytelling, we crafted each scene to seamlessly integrate the virtual holographic elements with the real-world environment. This required a delicate balance to ensure the visuals were not only stunning but also authentic to maintain product truth

We used a diverse toolset, integrating Unreal Engine, Blender, Cinema4D, Photoshop, After Effects, and Nuke. This amalgamation of cutting-edge DCC apps powered our team to achieve unparalleled creativity and precision throughout the project.

One of our challenges during Post was translating the real product’s UI & UX into the realm of visual effects. Our team skillfully bridged Figma and our DCC apps, ensuring every element was flawlessly recreated. This process guaranteed a perfect harmony between the virtual and real, elevating the user experience for an immersive digital experience.

The placement of elements took center stage in the layout phase. Here, attention was given to ensuring not only precise positioning but also a proper alignment with product truth and human interaction. Every element was thoughtfully orchestrated to create a design that not only looked right but also felt intuitively connected to both the product and its users.

We processed each render in multi-pass, leveraging an extensive array of individual channels stored within EXR files through our custom-built pipeline. This strategic approach allowed us to bring the renders seamlessly into the compositing stage for look development and final integration while also enabling any round trip changes.

Drawing from our extensive experience in delivering  visual effects for films and TV, every shot underwent pixel-perfect scrutiny. This experience, coupled with our refined pipeline, played a pivotal role in achieving a seamless fusion of CG elements with the real-world environment, resulting in a visual masterpiece that met the highest standards of quality and craftsmanship.
