Our 3D architectural animations transform drawings into dynamic visual stories, bringing your project to life. 

Benefits of architectural 3D animation for:

Real Estate and Development 

3D architectural animation effectively presents and sells future real estate projects. It fully captures the viewer's attention while immersing them in the atmosphere with realistic visual and sound effects. In one video, you can showcase the project from various angles: panoramic aerial views, detailed room plans, lighting changes, weather conditions, and the surrounding environment. Together, these elements offer a more vivid and realistic representation of the project.

Architectural and Design Firms 

Architects and designers choose 3D animation to communicate their ideas clearly and vividly to clients. This thoughtful visual narrative guides the viewer’s attention, smoothly transitioning from wide views to details like lighting and textures. Animation is particularly effective for showcasing various transformations within the space and demonstrating the object in different states and stages.

Urban Planning 

3D architectural animation services play a crucial role in urban planning. These animations facilitate dynamic presentations of transportation hubs, parks, squares, and buildings, enabling both government authorities and the public to gain a clearer understanding of upcoming changes in the urban landscape.

Marketing and Advertising 

Using 3D animation in marketing materials increases audience engagement and allows clients to experience a visual walkthrough of the project. This tool is ideal for creating attractive, interactive content for a construction company’s website or social media, making it easier for potential clients to explore and understand the project’s features. Understanding the platforms for animation distribution—such as Instagram, Vimeo, presentations, or websites—is crucial. This ensures the animation is customized to suit the preferences and behaviors of your target audience. CYLIND's team, including 3D artists, art directors, and project managers, carefully tailors each animation to align with the unique objectives of both the platform and the project.

We Produce 3D Animations to Meet All Your Needs

Exterior 3D Animation

Our animated exterior scenes feature realistic textures, lighting, and environments, allowing clients to fully immerse themselves in the design. This can include a visualization walkthrough that lets viewers explore the exterior in detail, offering a comprehensive look at how the building interacts with its surroundings. <Example by CYLIND>

Interior 3D Animation


Our interior 3D animations provide a detailed showcase of a building's interior, emphasizing functionality and ergonomics while highlighting furniture arrangements, lighting schemes, and décor elements. This visual experience captures the aesthetic appeal of the space and illustrates how the design promotes comfort and usability. Our 3D designers use close-ups to show intricate design details in the animation. <Example by CYLIND>

3D Construction Process Animation

A detailed, step-by-step visualization of the various phases of a project's construction. This animation effectively illustrates each stage of the building process, allowing viewers to understand the workflow, key milestones, and the sequence of activities from groundbreaking to completion. <Example by CYLIND>

3D Fly-Through Animations


Virtual fly-throughs around buildings enable viewers to assess the project from multiple perspectives, providing a dynamic way to explore its design and layout. This immersive experience allows for a comprehensive understanding of the architectural features and the surrounding landscape. <Example by CYLIND>

Environmental Change Animations


Modeling weather conditions and varying lighting scenarios throughout the day creates a dynamic representation of the building's interaction with its environment. This approach effectively highlights architectural features while showcasing the design's functionality and aesthetic appeal under various conditions. <Example by CYLIND>

Portfolio 

From residential complexes to large industrial projects, our portfolio features a diverse range of work for leading developers and architectural firms, all brought to life with our architectural 3D animations.

Our Process 

The process of creating architectural 3D animations at our company includes of several key steps:

Preparation Phase & Scenario

  • Client Inputs: Project description, DWG/PDF drawings, 3D models, material specs, style references, Google Maps location, and preferred camera angles.
  • Discussion: CYLIND collaborates with the client to select the animated views.
  • Script & Mood: We create a script, storyline, and select a suitable mood, including music, camera speed, animated assets, and lens choice.
  • Model Optimization: 3D models are prepared and optimized for each scene (new modeling estimated separately). 

Stage 1: Pre-compositing

  • Viewport Preview: We showcase the storyline with a 3ds Max viewport video synchronized to music, demonstrating camera movements and scene composition.
  • Camera Tracking: For added footage, cameras are tracked to match it with the scene.
  • Adjustments: Modify camera movements, scene geometry, and frame composition.

Stage 2: Key Shot Previews

  • Color Previews: Still images of key shots in full color are provided to confirm materials, surroundings, and atmosphere.
  • Adjustments: Modifications to materials, surroundings, and overall atmosphere can be made.

Stage 3: Low-Resolution Video Previews

  • HD Video Preview: A low-res preview (1200x720 px, 25fps) with text and infographics is provided, including animated elements like trees, cars, and people.
  • Refinement: One round of adjustments is allowed for object animation and text.
  • Extra Adjustments: Additional adjustment rounds are charged separately (up to 10% of total video cost).

Delivery

  • Final Video: Rendered in full HD (1920×1080 px, 24fps) with post-production enhancements for the final delivery.

Pricing 

We offer flexible pricing options, with the average cost per animation scene ranging from $200 to $250 per second of video.
