For many, but not all, CGI’s there is a limit to the amount of detail that can be built into 3D textures. 3D detail that is very close to the camera needs an alternative solution to uphold the photorealism and stop it from spoiling the overall image. In bathroom images, there are many times that products and soft fabrics are in close proximity to the camera due to the small nature of the rooms. In those instances we have to try and feature the real-world versions of these objects into the 3D renders in a way that is seamless and unnoticeable. In order to seamlessly integrate a real-world photo of a product into a 3D visualisation, there are 2 major obstacles to overcome with each object. The lighting on the photo has to perfectly match the brightness and direction of the light within the render and the camera angle has to match the 3D camera. We take measurements of the 3D scene and take note of the position and strength of the lights within the space. The real-world object or cluster of objects is staged and positioned and the camera is set up to match the 3D version. Each light is positioned and the brightness of each light is controlled to replicate the distance from the source the objects will be in the 3D scene. The object that was photographed is then overlaid onto the render. The colour of the photographed object is then controlled. If this process is done correctly then the viewer will never know that the photographed objects are not part of the overall 3D render.
