Storyboarding & Ideation

From concept development to planning the perfect camera angles, storyboarding can help map out a clear, step-by-step visual plan that highlights your key product features, reflects your brand style, and captures the essence of your video theme.

3D CAD Modelling & Drafting

3D CAD modelling enables accurate, detailed representations of products before they’re built. It streamlines design, speeds up prototyping, and helps identify issues early—saving time and costs. It’s also ideal for communicating ideas clearly across teams, clients, and manufacturers.

3D CGI Animation

3D product animation offers a powerful way to showcase designs, ideas, or environments with precision and creativity. It allows for complete control over lighting, angles, and movement—bringing concepts to life in ways that traditional video can't. Whether it's visualising something that doesn’t exist yet, highlighting complex mechanics, or creating dramatic, stylised visuals, 3D animation makes it possible to tell compelling stories that are both engaging and highly informative.

3D Printing & Prototyping

3D print prototyping allows for fast, cost-effective testing of designs in the real world. It helps validate form, fit, and function early in the process, enabling quick iterations and reducing development time. This hands-on approach improves accuracy and confidence before full-scale production.

Research & Strategy

Design research and strategy provide a solid foundation for creating effective, user-focused solutions. By understanding audience needs, market trends, and product context, it guides smarter decisions, reduces risk, and ensures the final design aligns with both business goals and user expectations.


Rendering & Product Visualisation

Rendered visuals turn 3D models into realistic, high-quality images that bring designs to life. They help communicate ideas clearly, showcase materials and finishes, and create impactful visuals for marketing, presentations, or client approvals—often before a product even exists.
