Photo-Modelling:
Creating photo-realistic
images of a product or scene that does not yet exist!
This is very important when
trying to evaluate public response to a proposed new product or
business venture, especially where the risks involved in going
ahead regardless could be disastrous. In many cases it is used
to prepare advertisements and publicity ahead of the launch -
often a long time before the actual item has been completed.
Needless to say we offered a
very discreet service - our lips remain sealed!
Because of the secretive nature
of this type of assignment, we are not permitted to show much of
the work we have done in this area. This is due to clients not
wishing competitors to get a sneak preview of proposed new
products, many of which may never see production, or be
available to the public for quite some considerable time.
So it is with great thanks to
those who have permitted us to show the Photo-Modelled images
that are on these pages.
Sportscar:
Makaira |
The
directors at Marlin Sportscars had a vision, but
needed to know what the car would look like 'for
real', before committing to an expensive development
program.
They also needed to
create an exotic ambience to sell this concept car.

generation Marlin Sportscar for a trade show. |

Commercial
Signs: BS |
After
designing various sets of graphics for a sign
written fleet of vehicles, we 'faked' the images
onto various photographs, so that the client could
get a realistic impression of the finished product
before committing to a large expense. |

A

Faking
It: Photo Restoration |
Besides larger commercial ventures, we also restore and
'Touch-up' treasured photographs. This can involve
repairing tears and scratches, restoring colour, or more
radically 'removing', or changing, unwanted parts of the
image! |
