These are 2D stock mockup scenes that use a combination of lighting maps, reflections, masks, and shaders to achieve a believable, real-time look in the browser.
Faking believable reflections and lighting maps in the browser without a real render pipeline is genuinely hard to pull off. These mockup scenes hold up way better than the usual flat product shots.
Lighting maps and shader-driven reflections doing this much work in the browser without tanking performance is impressive. Roughly how many hours of tuning go into getting one scene to feel real before you're happy enough to ship it?
Stock mockup scenes are usually the first thing that gets sacrificed for performance on lower-end devices, so I'm curious what your fallback looks like there. Do you swap to baked lighting when you detect a weaker GPU, or is the shader setup light enough that it doesn't matter much?
Converted a simple coffee cup concept into a premium true 3D animation for DTC brands.
What I focused on:
• Smooth 360° rotation with realistic depth
• Studio lighting + subtle steam for premium feel
• Clean black background for ad-ready look
• Optimized for social ads and product pages
Tool: Blender-style 3D workflow

Three peculiar stories. One wonderfully distorted reality.
A suspiciously curious cat, an eccentric family with secrets dating back to 1892, and a collection of memories coming together to tell their own STORY.
For this project, I combined surreal AI-generated visuals with manually edited camera shakes, white flashes, music synchronisation and carefully timed transitions using the InVideo Editor.
Halfway through, my AI credits ran out — so I completed the remaining effects manually.
Apparently, even artificial intelligence has a budget. 😉

This is an FPV drone flight through a city during a solar eclipse.
The camera moves from a crowded square to a football stadium without any cuts or transitions. I wanted to show how people react when something unusual happens, and routine...
