As a creative partner and 3D CGI production studio in Paris, Alt-Studio supports luxury Houses from initial artistic direction to 4K/8K masters. We elevate your timepieces, iconic bottles, and prestige skincare while structuring a reusable 3D asset heritage across all your launches.
Upstream creative advisory, technical mastery, and long-term ROI on your visual assets.
Reworking engineering CAD / STEP files (digital beveling, hand-sculpting the non-uniform interior glass base thickness of blown perfume bottles) and tuning shaders: black polish, anisotropy maps, Côtes de Genève, sapphire crystal (n = 1.77), and hot-foil gilding.
Visual translation of olfactory pyramids and skincare formulations: controlled-viscosity fluid dynamics, glass caustics and refractions, magnified cellular action, and bespoke organic blooms.
Every timepiece or bottle prepared in Lookdev becomes a lasting master asset. We capitalize on this certified foundation to roll out flagship films, high-definition print key visuals, and social media (SNS) cutdowns while optimizing your annual budgets.
Formats and lead times calibrated to your launch objectives, without ever compromising artistic craft.
High-precision mechanical assemblies, grand watchmaking complications (minute repeater, skeleton chronograph), and Luxury Perfumery campaign films.
Scope this format (Signature Mode)Bottle reveals, macro cosmetic textures, and omnichannel adaptations ready for retail, flagships, and digital channels.
Scope this format (Product Motion Mode)Integrating your certified 3D product at the heart of AI-generated sets under strict geometric control (Lunar New Year, Holiday campaigns, social media capsules).
Scope this format (Hybrid Sprint Mode)Curated productions crafted for our partner Maisons, publishers, and brands.
A spectacular worldbuilding film merging the Hollywood imagery of Black Panther (meteorite, vibranium, purple energy FX) with the historic Swiss landmarks of Audemars Piguet, supervised by Alexandre Ferré within Mécanique Générale.
A series of 4 scientific films produced over 6 months in collaboration with La Maison Noire to illustrate with emotion and elegance the cellular action of the Dior Prestige formula deep within the skin.
Focus on Gérald Genta's exceptional GG-002 Minute Repeater caliber directed by Ladislas Lepoutre in 3ds Max and V-Ray: mechanical tension of the winding slide, ballet of the hammers, and soft contrast lighting revealing every artisanal finish.
The most advanced chapter of our 9-month partnership with La Prairie: a hybrid production around Life Matrix (and Pure Gold material studies) where the product takes center stage and 3D Meshes, Houdini FX, and AI FX converge — laying the foundation for our current hybrid workflow.
Retrospective of the Viktor & Rolf Holiday films (“Starry Ball”, “Enchanted Holidays”, “Flowerbomb Christmas”) supervised by Alexandre Ferré and his teams — now united under Alt-Studio: from snow-covered Amsterdam canals to Haute Couture gown simulations and the House's iconic fragrance bottles.
2-week production of 3 high-precision print visuals (1 full view and 2 front/back close-ups) of the Big Bang Unico Titanium 44mm for a competitive pitch for Swiss manufacture Hublot.
Full 2-month production of the Lunar New Year campaign (Year of the Snake) for Maison Francis Kurkdjian in collaboration with Wizz: 20 high-definition prints, 1 animated greeting card, and 4 videos showcasing the House's flagship products.
Go behind the scenes of our 3D, Houdini, and hybrid AI pipeline.
Capturing the soul of the caliber, from black polishing to sapphire reflections
Inside our CGI pipeline dedicated to watchmaking manufactures: micron-level CAD re-topology, anisotropic shaders for artisanal finishes (black polish, Côtes de Genève, microblasted titanium), and macroscopic lighting dramaturgy.
Blown glass, fluid dynamics, and light choreography
Exploring our Maya, Houdini, Redshift, and V-Ray workflows for Luxury Perfumery: hand-sculpting the non-uniform interior bottom thickness of blown glass beyond STEP files, caustics, and simulations for major campaigns.
Every production begins under a strict non-disclosure agreement (NDA). Your native CAD files, 3D geometries, and campaign briefs are processed on isolated local servers with zero transit through public third-party clouds, ensuring complete industrial secrecy until launch day.
Yes. We natively import your CAD assemblies (STEP, IGES, SolidWorks, Rhino) and handle all topological cleanup, re-meshing, and digital beveling so edges catch light exactly like a hand-finished piece.
From the initial scoping phase, we design a modular master 3D scene. Once the product and its shaders are validated for the hero film, we generate ultra-high-definition print key visuals (8K+) as well as vertical 9:16 formats and e-commerce loops at marginal cost.
Expect 4 to 8 weeks in Signature Mode for a film involving custom FX R&D (Houdini simulations, complex mechanical exploded views), 2 to 4 weeks in Product Motion Mode for a product-focused film, and 5 to 15 days in a 3D + AI Hybrid Sprint for a seasonal campaign.
