When to add people to 3D Renderings?

Including 3D people in a rendering can add a sense of scale and depth to the space, making it easier for viewers to envision themselves in the environment. Additionally, if the people in the rendering are not executed well, they can detract from the overall quality of the image. So, it’s important to consider the skill level of the 3D artist and the level of detail required for the project.

Retail and Commercial Interior Spaces Often need People to Come to Life

When commercial or retail renderings do not include people, the space can look empty and lifeless, lacking a sense of scale and functionality. Adding people can help bring a sense of vibrancy, activity and realism to the rendering, making it more appealing and relatable to potential customers.

People to Reflect Your Story

Including people in retail and commercial visualizations can help bring a sense of scale, activity, and life to the scene. It can also provide a more realistic representation of how the space will be used and experienced by customers or employees.

Some Limitations of 3D People

First, there is a limited number of people available. Another one of the limitations of using 3D people in real estate visualization is that they can sometimes appear stiff or unrealistic in their movements. Additionally, creating high-quality 3D people from scratch is cost prohibitive for real estate projects, as they need to be purchased as opposed to created from scratch. Finally, it’s important to ensure that the use of 3D people is appropriate for the specific project and target audience, as it may not always be necessary or desirable to include them in every visualization.

Pro-Tip Bottom Line

Next time you are commissioning a rendering ask for a version of your image with and without people. Make sure you ask for adding people at the beginning so you incorporate people throughout the production process.
