CGI/3D Adidas Yeezy Sneaker Video

Our team at Indresano Studios continues to push the boundaries of our CGI/3D skills. We were thrilled to make this CGI shoe video for the Adidas Yeezy 350 v2.

CGI can be an incredible marketing tool for businesses to use for advertising. CGI animation can take a static object and move it around in a 3D environment in order to tell your product or service’s story. It offers more flexibility and creative control for more complex projects. With CGI, you have unlimited possibilities in bringing your ideas to life, and you can use this to leave a lasting impression on your audience.

We wanted to highlight the most important aspects of the Adidas Yeezy 350 v2. It is a widely used, comfortable, and resistant urban product. One of our goals was to create a video with a cheerful and young tone to reflect the target demographic. This was achieved partially due to the use of modern, upbeat music that sets the rhythm of the animation.

For the overall lighting, we used spotlights on the sneakers to increase the shading in the knitting and in the shape. This highlights the impressive texture of the shoe build. We used a dark background and added green and yellow light points, as well as increased the presence of volumetric light. The detailed lighting and movement were carefully chosen to showcase the unique qualities and features and to boost the video’s appeal.

Dog & Cat Photography Stars Take Over Boston!

Some may say you can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
We, at Indresano Studios, beg to differ!

Earlier this year, Indresano Studios selected a cat and dog duo to test out some delicious new food on the market!

Meet Kingsley and Big Papi!

Indresano Studios met this amazing team earlier this year during a pet casting call we hosted in Boston, Ma.

We were on the hunt for the perfect pair and boy did we find it!

Meet Kingsley

Even though Kingsley was only 2 years old during our commercial photoshoot, he was a star! Kingsley loved the camera. His excellent training was essential during our shoot. He knew exactly where to go and we, at Indresano Studios, had no problems directing him.

Now that’s a good boy!

Meet Big Papi

Big Papi was a treat to have on set! He was very comfortable with the camera flash, and you could tell this wasn’t his first rodeo. Big Papi was definitely treat motivated and enjoyed all the attention coming his way.

Looking good, feline good!

Kingsley and Big Papi were a joy to have on set. Our team at Indresano Studios loved directing them throughout our photography and video shoots. We couldn’t have picked a more paw-some duo!

CGI/3D Donut

What better way to combine our strong background in food photography and our skills in CGI than to produce a Donut CGI video? For this CGI animation, we wanted the audience to be taken into an imaginary world we created entirely from Computer Generated Imagery, which gives a nod to classic children’s wonderlands like Candyland or Willy Wonka.

 

Our decision to focus on donuts we can owe in part to our sugar cravings, but it also was an environment in which we could play with inclusions and complementary foods, similar to how we capture food photography environments on set.

Under our director’s vision, our talented CGI team sketched a storyboard that went through multiple revisions. Once the storyboard was approved, the team worked on an animatic based on 2D drawings which you can see below.

The music was also very important for this project and we wanted something that expressed childlike wonder. The song we ultimately settled on was both catchy and fun for both kids and adults. We know we couldn’t stop humming it during the workday!

The next steps after the animatic involved 3D modeling, lighting, rigging and texturing. You can see some stills from the environment as it started to come together. These stills are from before final texture was added.

Boston Home Inspectors Marketing Video

We had the opportunity recently to produce a marketing video for Boston Home Inspectors for their website and social media. We created a personable video that captured how this father-and-son business perform home inspections for everyone, spanning from experienced home buyers to first time home buyers. They service Boston and the Greater Boston area.

We did everything from creating the script, putting together a storyboard, interviewing the subjects, to the physical shooting and editing. It was rewarding seeing this video come to life, and how it embodied the loyalty and trust that the company has worked hard to create.

We shot this video over two separate days, capturing B-roll on location and interviewing James, the owner of BHI, and his two sons, Devin and Aidan, at our full-service commercial Studio in South Boston. We wanted to ensure that we illustrated the company’s mission and what they stood for. We captured the detail, thorough nature, and love that is put into each inspection.

We scouted three locations in advance of the shoot and on the shoot day we had James and his sons do walk throughs of each home, checking the houses for items they would look for on a regular inspection. We were able to capture the inspectors in their natural element this way.

We also deployed a drone to get establishing shots of Boston for the video. Our talented drone operator captured some nice shots of the city from the roof of one of the houses.

It was clear the inspection team was talented and hard working as they took us through their process and shared some fun stories of things they uncovered during their inspections. The inspectors were not afraid to crawl into dark basements or enclosed areas so our crew could capture some cinematic shots!

If you’re a first time home buyer, or are just looking for a home inspection, be sure to check out Boston Home Inspectors! And in the meantime, check out the marketing video below!
