Chumleys Illustration digital paintings and CGIs accurately portray the details of architectural, engineering and urban regeneration projects.
These images can either be digitally drawn and painted using a digital pen display and pen using Adobe Photoshop as the digital palette or scenes can be modelled in 3D and superimposed over a photograph. Seen as the most cost effective type of illustration available on the market today compared with full blown 3D modelling of the whole scene, high quality and accurate visuals are easily produced to showcase your designs in context with the site surroundings.
These illustration visuals typically support finance bids and concept designs. They are also used for a vast array of communication material ranging from publications in the form of leaflets and flyers, banners and scheme notice boards to corporate web site communications and media.
Nottingham Co-DRIVER Driverless Car Project
The European Championship will be held in Great Britain for the first time in Nottingham, May 2016. Archery GB and its partners will deliver a world class event which will showcase elite European archers to a global audience.
Archery GB, in partnership with UK Sport, Nottingham City Council and the University of Nottingham, has been successful in its bid to host the 2016 World Archery Europe Outdoor Target Championship.
In association with Inside Out Time Lapse Productions this film was produced to show the illustration of the archery target wall; the finished size will be 21m long by 4m high. Two cameras were clicking away every 15 seconds whilst the illustrator recorded the screen as he painted. 40 Hours of film was captured and Inside Out produced the final production and did a great job.
