Design firm Real-Time Visualisation makes LEGO stories take shape with Form•Z RenderZone and LightWorks.
The police are in hot pursuit of gold robbers, jewel thieves and treasure smugglers in a series of LEGO storybooks illustrated by Real-Time Visualisation and published by Dorling Kindersley.
The Real-Time Visualisation design team modeled and rendered all of the images in the LEGO storybooks using form•Z RenderZone from auto•des•sys Inc.
Form•Z RenderZone is the version of form•Z that includes photorealistic rendering based on the LightWorks rendering engine.
The Real-Time designers worked from pencil sketches provided by the publisher and photos of the LEGOLAND Windsor theme park. Real-Time also received "boxes and boxes" of LEGO toys for building the real thing, according to Tony Prosser, a founder of Real-Time.
Real-Time Visualisation produces promotional and informative 3D images and animations for a variety of needs, including advertising, architecture, engineering and product design.
