Creating a packaging mockup
Traditionally, packaging designers had to make mockups at some point in their design workflow. They needed the mockups to win pitches, convince clients, and decide on materials and finishing effects. Making packaging mockups is a time consuming and expensive process. Virtual packaging is the way to go!
Virtual packaging
with Studio Visualizer
Studio Visualizer is a fast and easy way to turn your ideas into beautiful 3D images. You can use it for your own inspiration or to impress an important client. There is no more need to cut, fold and glue print-outs all the time because with Studio Visualizer you see the package on the screen.
A technically correct packaging mockup
You’ll find yourself working faster and more creative. And the artwork that you deliver is technically more correct. That way, your designs do not get compromised during production. You might still make conventional mock-ups, but with Studio you have a new option: faster and cheaper virtual mock-ups.
Packaging visualization in 3D
Visualizer adds the finishing touch. Its patented dynamic print visualization is able to show a wide range of substrates, printing and finishing effects in real-time.
Studio Visualizer can revolutionize the way you handle packaging and point of sale development. Shorten your artwork approval cycle with interactive 3D visuals. Save mock-up and studio photography costs. Use a virtual alter ego of your entire product range, always up to date with the latest artwork.
Increase the success rate of product launches, by seeing upfront how your brand will look in the store next to its competition.
Check print and finishing effects on virtual packaging
The real-time images in Visualizer are ultra-realistic thanks to a patented print modeling technology.
Studio Visualizer simulates the printing and finishing operations one by one, in the correct order, and on the right substrate. So what you see, doesn’t only look great, it’s also technically feasible.
