THE BRIEF

The Verkada One keynote speech presentation is a vibrant and engaging showcase of groundbreaking innovations in security technology. It masterfully combines insightful industry trends, captivating product demonstrations, and practical real-world applications.

For this event, the objective is to create high-quality 3D renderings of Verkada’s latest security products. These visuals will play a pivotal role in highlighting our cutting-edge technology, enhancing audience engagement, and illustrating practical applications. It is crucial that the designs emphasize key features and functionalities while maintaining a cohesive visual theme that aligns with Verkada’s branding and the overall aesthetic of the presentation.

Specifically, the team requires product visuals that complement the presenter’s dialogue. This may include detailed breakdowns of features, use cases, situational examples, product reveals, and important updates, all designed to reinforce the message and engage the audience effectively.

MY CONTRIBUTIONS

As part of a four-person team, my role as a 3D designer and animator involved hands-on engagement with each of the products. I applied realistic textures and materials to the Industrial Design team’s CAD files, enhancing their visual appeal while ensuring alignment with Verkada’s branding and product specifications. I set up dynamic lighting in various scenes to effectively showcase product features, resulting in high-quality still renderings that exude professionalism and clarity. Additionally, I crafted engaging product reveal animations that highlighted key features and functionalities, significantly boosting audience understanding and excitement.

Through these efforts, I aimed to create visually captivating representations of Verkada’s products that communicated their innovative features and applications. Ultimately, my goal was to make the cameras and intercoms shine, enhancing the overall impact of the keynote speech.

The Glow CYC world

My largest amount of work consists of Showcases for Comcast highlighting their services. These are full 3D animated commercials airing all over the nation and online with a variety of looks, tones, and “worlds.” In the beginning there was a push for a sleek black look ranging across all spots and the shots below highlight that style. The biggest draw to these shots were the colors only coming from the screens with hints of warmth in the reflections on the objects in the world.
