BARDINET - CGI MODELLING
Project Genesis:
Introduce the project as a cutting-edge venture, crafted using Cinema 4D, Corona, and Octane Render. Emphasize the ambition behind using these advanced tools.
Objective:
Highlight the challenge of creating a hyper-realistic CGI model of the Bardinet bottle to be used across the brand's marketing materials.
About Bardinet:
Introduce Bardinet as a prestigious French brandy, rooted in tradition since 1857. Elaborate on its crafting process at the Domaine de Fleurenne estate in Bordeaux, focusing on the use of high-quality grapes and traditional distillation methods to produce its aromatic eaux-de-vie.
Modeling and Rendering Tools
Cinema 4D:
Used for advanced 3D modeling, making it possible to accurately recreate the Bardinet bottle with attention to detail. Using corona render for stills and octane render for animation.
Simplified Design:
A minimalist approach was central to the project, focusing on clean lines and pure shapes to highlight the elegance and simplicity of the Bardinet bottle.
Precise Detailing:
Despite the simplicity, each element of the bottle was modeled with meticulous attention to detail, from the label to the texture of the glass.
BACKSTAGE
In the section below, we present the backstage of this project, offering a detailed view of the technical aspects that underpin our creation. You will find a series of meticulously crafted wireframes, showing the structure and form of the 3D models in their most basic state. Additionally, we highlight the use of Ambient Occlusion (AO) to enhance the depth and realism of textures and surfaces. This combination of wireframes and AO provides a deeper understanding of the techniques and processes behind our work.
