ABOUT

This project showcases a festive CGI product render created using a Houdini-UE-Nuke pipeline. Houdini was used to craft hero assets with precise material masks, Unreal Engine handled real-time set dressing, lighting and rendering, and Nuke added realistic lens imperfections such as DOF, distortion, grain, and subtle anamorphic effects. Final color grading and light-leak accents were completed in DaVinci Resolve.

The visual concept blends holiday elements, warm storytelling, and cinematic lighting to elevate the product beyond a standard render. Breakdown passes and before/after shots highlight the process behind the final image.
