CGI & Imagery15 min readCan You Create Product Images Before the Product Is Manufactured?
A physical product does not need to exist before commercial imagery can begin. What needs to exist is a reliable definition of the product - and once that definition is trustworthy enough, it can become a digital product twin: a reusable digital master that represents what the product is intended to become.
