More About Spiderweb Key Visual

The main idea was to create something that brings all the attention to the product, using less elements as possible and creating some connection with the target public at the same time. The web element also refers to the grip of the shoe and his wild nature, bringing a personification to the product. The mood also transmits technology, present on the shoe essence and a pinch of a mystical language that comes with the spider web element that also represents the shoesole grip.

Design Details

Unique Properties
The idea is to bring the product a personification of wildness, connecting the shoe direct to the customers life style. The mood also transmits technology, present on the shoe essence and a pinch of a mystical language that comes with the spider web element that also represents the shoesole grip. Everything made in 3D without scans.
Inspiration
The inspiration of the mood and elements comes from the nature, connecting the image directly with the customers life style. To show the grip of the shoe, the spiderweb, that is a wild element also was used.
Research
The work was executed based mainly on the previous experiences in other works for several companies of the sector footwear, in very natural way. Feedback was collected mainly online about the quality of the 3D itself as well as the sensations that people had in the first contact with the art.
Challenge
The hardest part was about the concept and thinking about something something never seen before on a so enormous market. Another complicated part was getting some real nice balance between something beautiful and real at same time.
Realization and Technology
The boot was modeled using photographs as a reference and hard surface 3D modeling techniques. For modeling we used the software 3ds Max. All the textures made using leather texture and some photoshop brushes. Vray was used for rendering. Nothing on the scene was scanned or photoscaned.
Operation and Interaction
The key visual was used on online and offline media such product folder, box, and video. The main focus was to attract attention to the product, bringing in the composition elements that generate the necessary sensations without the need for explanatory texts. Competitors often use images without a strong visual appeal, so the product, especially in the online market, goes unnoticed. The excess of texts works negatively in most of these cases, underestimating the viewer's intellect.
Project Duration and Location
I started doing the piece on setember 21 and it took about 1 month, ending on October 21.
