StudioTools Rendering Services

We transform StudioTools 3D designs into photo real images and animations. You can see your design in photographic quality before anything has actually been manufactured.

‘But StudioTools is a great renderer in its own right!” I hear you say, why come to you? Yes this is true. But clients come to us with their more challenging StudioTools projects. We have clients that want to render interior views through 3 train carriages to high resolutions, and their computers just can’t cope with this. We have other clients that want absolute photo realism – to a quality level above that of StudioTools, good enough for advertising images. From consumer products through to large transport projects, there are times when you may need some help turning your designs into stunning visuals – and that’s where we can help.

Here at Protograph we are experts in taking native StudioTools files and importing them into our own visualization software. We then add realistic materials and lighting to the model, so we can render it on our substantial render farm. We can process even the most complex StudioTools files and render them with ease. We have developed this process over the last 5 years and it provides one of the very few routes where huge CAD surface data sets can be rendered without the need for extensive data conversion into polygons, which is time consuming – and time is money! We keep your data in its original form throughout the whole process.

Don’t worry about simplifying your model for us at render stage. We take full manufacturing sets of data and turn them into marketing images. In fact we prefer all detail to be modeled in, rather than created through tricks at the render stage. If you have a grill with thousands of holes in it, let’s have the data – file size is not an issue for us.

Working with Protograph is simple. There’s no need to convert your StudioTools file - just send it along with cameras set at the view angles you’d like and assign some of your own materials inside StudioTools.
Grouping objects and organizing your files with layers also helps us. Protograph then generate a test render for you to approve before we render the final image.

To make your StudioTools renders look totally real, we urge clients to model in all the little details like tiny radii on edges. These help to catch the light and make the StudioTools rendering look more realistic. It is very rare to see any mass produced parts that are molded with totally hard edges without any radii. You will definitely see the difference.

But we don’t just produce still images; we also produce animations that can showcase your new design in action. Turn table animations of StudioTools data can show your audience the design from all angles in photo real quality.

So if you are a user of StudioTools and want to see your new designs rendered to perfection, then you need to contact Protograph, the StudioTools Rendering experts. We work fast using our in-house render farm and have lots of experience with small and huge projects.
