Essence

work: Rigid body simulation, 3D modeling, vector-to-3D logo, studio lighting, rendering, post-production

position: 3D Artist

role: Main 3D Artist

Pitch and R&D project for an Essence perfume bottle. The logo was vectorized, extruded into 3D and modeled, then scattered and simulated using rigid body dynamics in Maya. Studio lighting setup with HDR, fill and key lights plus light blockers. Rendered in VRay. Post-production in Photoshop for stills and Nuke for animation.


Case Study

Goal:

Pitch and R&D project demonstrating rigid body simulation for an Essence perfume bottle campaign.

Approach:

The logo was vectorized, extruded into 3D and modeled. Parts were scattered and simulated with Maya rigid body dynamics. Studio lighting used HDR combined with fill, key lights and light blockers. Rendered in VRay. Post in Photoshop (stills) and Nuke (animation).

Result:

Pitch visuals delivered.

My Contribution:

Full 3D pipeline: vector-to-3D logo, modeling, rigid body simulation setup, studio lighting, VRay rendering, post-production in Photoshop and Nuke.
