The Graded Card Visualization (Pikachu

The Graded Card Visualization (Pikachu Slabs Video) | PSA Slabs 2025 |

A character-driven 3D motion graphics promo built to announce a premium graded card drop for Curree Collectibles.

This project required a balance between highly realistic hard-surface materials and stylized character integration. I focused heavily on the refractive glass and plastic shaders for the PSA slabs to ensure they looked authentic under the studio lighting, while seamlessly blending in the 3D Pikachu models and dynamic typography.

Technical Breakdown: • Materials & Texturing: Developed photorealistic refractive plastic/glass shaders for the grading cases and accurate recreation of the internal foil cards. • Animation: Fast-paced, audio-driven camera animation and 3D typography reveals. • Integration: Posed and lit stylized 3D character models to interact with the photorealistic product renders.
