    10 in 1: Product film and clips for lighting and electronic products from HELLA

    Case Study: 3D Animation Film for HELLA Vehicle Parts - 10 Products for Forklifts and Autonomous Robots in One.

    Forklift with many lights and sensors from the company HELLA in a dark warehouse in front of a large shelf

    Objective

    The goal of the project with Hella was to animate ten products, including lights, lighting systems, various sensors, and electronics for a forklift, in an engaging film. Additionally, the individual products were to be presented in short, separate clips to highlight their function and design. This visual representation was intended to showcase the products in their optimal environment and clearly demonstrate the benefits and application possibilities to potential customers.

    Challenge

    The biggest challenge of this project was integrating a high number of products into a single animation. For both Hella and our team, this meant that each product had to be individually and detailed animated without overwhelming the overall result. The complexity and variety of the products required precise planning and sophisticated animation strategies to ensure a coherent and engaging presentation.

    Solution

    Our agency developed a detailed storyboard based on Hella's briefing. For implementation, we purchased stock 3D models for the warehouse and outdoor environment, as well as 3D models of people to make the animations lively and realistic. By using these models, we were able to authentically depict the environment and present the products in their best light.

    The centerpiece, or rather: the centerpieces, of the film are the individual products, each created as digital twins by our 3D designers, allowing them to be flexibly integrated into the individual scenes and settings.

    Our dedicated team ensured that each animation was seamlessly integrated into the overall presentation to achieve an impressive final result.

    The carriers for the 10 products are a forklift, which can be controlled particularly safely and efficiently in logistics environments through the integrated lighting and sensor products from Hella, as well as an autonomous transport robot that navigates safely through a city environment with the help of lights and sensors.

    Result

    The result was an impressive summary film that showcases the ten products from Hella in a realistic and engaging environment. The separate short clips of the individual products complemented the main film and allowed Hella to market the products specifically across all marketing channels such as social media and the website.
