We used AI from the start to accelerate and visualise ideas. First, we generated the real-life cast — photo-real characters that helped the team and client decide on the look and feel of the talent. Once the casting was approved, we derived balloon versions of each person directly from those faces, already matched in likeness, tone and expression.

The same approach applied to the on-screen talent of the film. We built AI versions of their faces and bodies, then used that as the base to evolve their balloon doubles. Texture, reflectivity, colour, and costume were adjusted with input from the director and agency until every character felt just right.

These AI-generated frames became the visual reference for both live-action shooting and 3D production, saving time, unlocking clarity early, and allowing more energy to go into refining the final look instead of chasing it later.

Eudora was about to begin production on a new 3D product demo for Chronology. It needed to align with the visual identity of the campaign film and included a few wishful scenes that would require visual exploration before the director, agency and client could fully commit.

While 3D was clearly the right production tool for the final film, it was not the best tool to start with. Early storytelling and visual development needed speed and flexibility. Exploration rounds in full 3D would have cost time and money that simply were not available.

Working closely with the director and VFX team, we built a high fidelity storyboard that locked colour palette, ingredients and textures before a single polygon was modelled. Along the way we gave space for the creative team and client to explore how key moments of the demo, like the droplet containing life and the product mix bursting into a hair strand, would play out visually.

Because the storyboard already mirrored the final look, 3D production began the moment the client signed off.

No guesswork. Fewer revisions. Oddly happy people.

Eudora 3D Demo Concepts

Working hand in hand with the director and VFX team, we built a high-fidelity storyboard that fixed colour palette, ingredients and textures before a single polygon was modelled. Because the visuals already mirrored the final look, 3D production began the moment the client signed off, trimming both calendar days and revision rounds.

Toyota Cross Animatic

For a creative concept presentation, we delivered a full animatic driven by a custom-trained model of the actual vehicle with Photoreal consistency across every camera move.

Client: Toyota
Production Company: The Moon Unit

NIO “Balões” Launch Film

Ahead of Brazil’s new internet provider rollout, we designed balloon versions of the on-screen talent and created supplemental virtual characters to float alongside them. These concept frames became the visual reference for live-action and 3D production and integration.

Agency: Artplan
Director: Otavio Machado

Brand TVC Pitch

We produced epic, photoreal exploration scenes that Voodoo House later elevated with feature-grade VFX, giving the pitch blockbuster scale while keeping brand details under wraps.

Spicy Boys Pitch Concepts

For NONTOXIC Studio’s campaign pitch, we visualised the bold, tongue-in-cheek world of Spicy Boys hot sauces. Style frames blended exaggerated heat motifs with playful character poses, giving the creative team a vivid toolkit to sell the idea in the room.
