As an experienced 3D artist, it’s been exhilarating to witness Notch develop into a highly sophisticated top-end 3D creation tool. I have been using Notch for more than two years; the versatility of this software has never been so good. And it’s really only just beginning to stretch its legs!
I’m going to show you Notch at its finest with a range of projects. Over the following steps, we will create a series of photorealistic product images for use in marketing and advertising.
I plan to demonstrate just how easy it is to import existing 3D models into Notch where they can be textured, lit, animated and rendered at an unbeatable speed. Notch’s simple node-based workflow makes versioning product designs a breeze. And as well as simply using pre-made models, we will also create products entirely from scratch using Notch. The off-the-shelf nodes make it possible to create high-end product shots using just one 3D tool.
Notch’s fast render engine produces exceptionally high-resolution images and video at a competitive speed. We will cover how to transform your product shots into animated, interactive pieces of content – perfect for brand installations and product launches. Notch is the all-in-one solution for everything interactive and real time.
I’ve had fun injecting a bit of the Notch personality into these images; it’s so easy to version these product shots into anything. Unfortunately, despite extensive research, ‘Notch Gin’ is not currently available on the market!
