Planning a commercial shoot? Explore 5 key considerations for custom set design and construction, from budgets and timelines to camera requirements.
5 Things to Consider Before Building a Set for Commercial Production
Building a custom set takes more than a great creative concept. From budgets and construction timelines to camera angles and equipment requirements, here's what brands and agencies should consider before bringing a commercial set to life.
Your product might not exist yet. Your marketing assets can.
How Brands Create Product Imagery Before the Product Exists
Marketing doesn't always have the luxury of waiting for a finished product. See how brands can use CAD files and CGI product visualization to create photorealistic PDP, packaging and lifestyle imagery while products are still in development.
Why the smartest production approach isn’t always a photoshoot.
When Should Brands Use CGI Instead of Photography?
CGI and photography both have a place in commercial production, but some projects are better suited for a digital approach. Learn when CGI makes the most sense, from launching products before physical samples exist to creating hundreds of assets, finishes and variations at scale.
Bringing production capabilities together can mean fewer handoffs, smarter workflows and more flexibility as content needs evolve.
One Production Partner, More Ways to Produce
Managing photography, video, CGI and post-production across separate vendors can add complexity to an already complicated production. An integrated approach connects capabilities, teams and brand knowledge, helping companies find efficiencies while still choosing the right production method for each piece of content.
More capabilities are only valuable when you know how to use them together.
Integrated Production: Building the Right Workflow Around the Work
Integrated production isn’t about using every tool available. It’s about understanding a brand’s goals, content needs and challenges, then building the right combination of photography, video, CGI, virtual production and post-production around the work.
How Everything in Marketing Has Completely Changed
AI is fundamentally reshaping marketing, from search and content creation to customer journeys and brand discovery. As content becomes easier to create and AI plays a bigger role in how people make decisions, simply producing more isn’t enough. The brands that stand out will be the ones that pair new technology with strong ideas, original creative, human storytelling, and a clear point of view.
