Clients
An image comes to life
in the details.
Three projects, three ways to give a product or a place its presence.
Packshot
Bring out the material.
I shape reflections and contrast to bring out the bottle’s form while preserving its details.
Rabanne · Phantom
Motion
Reveal the product through motion.
I shape the pace and camera movement to introduce the product, then guide the eye toward its components.
Devialet · Gemini II
Set design
Give the setting its character.
I bring form, materials and light together to create a setting that belongs in the project’s world.
Inoxtag · RDR2 Set
Independent.By your side.
One point of contact for your 3D production, from the first conversation to the final images.
Extra support or a complete production.
A role that fits your team
I can develop a creative proposal from your brief or work within an established art direction. You keep the client relationship; I take care of the 3D production.
Direct communication, clear milestones
Together, we agree on the scope, formats and review stages. I share the previews you need to make decisions, refine the work and move toward delivery.
Discretion is part of the job
White-label work, NDAs and confidentiality: we agree on the framework before starting. Nothing is published without permission, and I respect your relationship with the end client.
The right tools, the right resources
I work with Cinema 4D and Octane Render. If the production needs other expertise, I can bring in specialist freelancers while remaining your point of contact.
The work, from the other side.
