Creating global product flexibility.

  • Background

    Backgrounds were rendered clean with and without product reflection/shadows.

  • Products

    Each product was rendered as its own element and combined as layers in photoshop post Nuke composite. This allowed for future removal or alteration of individual products as needed.

  • Labels

    Each label was rendered separately. Shadows/reflections of labels were also separated. This allowed teams in different world regions to easily tweak or completely change the labels.

  • Custom Mattes

    Custom mattes were provided to simplify future shade changes of the products.

  • PSD Delivery

    CG Compositing was done in Nuke to perfect the look. Separate elements were rendered and carefully reassembled in Photoshop, thoughtfully organized.
