## Services

- [3D Product Rendering](https://escapereality.lk/services/3d-product-rendering): Escape Reality creates photoreal 3D product renders, from white-background e-commerce packshots to hero ad visuals, exploded views and lifestyle scenes, from your CAD files, drawings or just photos. Once your product is modelled, new angles, colourways and scenes cost a fraction of a reshoot, and visuals can be ready before the product is even manufactured.
- [3D Animation & CGI Ads](https://escapereality.lk/services/3d-animation): Escape Reality produces cinematic 3D animation and CGI ads, including product launch films, automotive spots, 3D explainers and short social ads, with the camera work, lighting and edit of a live-action commercial and none of the shoot logistics. We handle concept, modelling, animation, VFX, edit and sound in one team.
- [3D Modeling & Characters](https://escapereality.lk/services/3d-modeling): Escape Reality builds production-ready 3D models and characters, including hard-surface products and props, environments, stylised mascots and realistic characters, with clean topology, proper UVs and PBR textures. They are delivered in the formats you need (FBX, OBJ, GLB/glTF, USD, .blend) for rendering, games, AR or 3D printing.
- [Video Editing & Motion](https://escapereality.lk/services/video-editing): Escape Reality edits videos that hold attention, from paid social ads, Reels, TikToks and Shorts to YouTube videos, product videos and brand films. We add motion graphics, captions, colour grading and sound design, and we can mix in 3D or CGI shots that most editing teams cannot make.
- [AI Content Production](https://escapereality.lk/services/ai-content): Escape Reality produces AI-assisted videos and images for brands, such as AI ads, product lifestyle visuals, concept art, storyboards and high-volume social content. We combine generative AI with real 3D models, compositing and editing, so products stay accurate, characters stay consistent and the results look on-brand instead of obviously AI.
- [Game Assets & Development](https://escapereality.lk/services/game-development): Escape Reality is an outsourcing partner for game studios. We make engine-ready props, weapons, vehicles, characters and environments with LODs and PBR textures for Unreal Engine and Unity, and we help with gameplay prototypes, tools and porting. We match your art style, poly budgets and naming conventions so assets drop straight into your project.
- [FiveM Development](https://escapereality.lk/services/fivem-development): Escape Reality builds custom FiveM content for roleplay servers, including Lua scripts and full systems for QBCore, Qbox and ESX, NUI interfaces, MLO interiors, custom vehicles, props and clothing, and performance optimisation. We run our own large RP projects, so we build systems that hold up with real players.

## Industries served

- [Beauty & skincare](https://escapereality.lk/industries/beauty-skincare): Escape Reality creates photoreal 3D product renders and CGI ads for beauty, skincare and fragrance brands. That includes glossy packshots for every shade and size, ingredient and texture animations (serums, creams, splashes), and short scroll-stopping social ads. Everything is built from your packaging files, so new launches and variants don't need a new photoshoot.
- [Consumer electronics](https://escapereality.lk/industries/consumer-electronics): Escape Reality makes photoreal 3D renders, exploded views and CGI launch films for consumer electronics such as headphones, wearables, smart-home devices, audio gear and gadgets. We work directly from engineering CAD, so marketing visuals are ready before mass production and every colourway, angle and feature callout stays perfectly accurate.
- [E-commerce & DTC brands](https://escapereality.lk/industries/ecommerce-brands): Escape Reality helps e-commerce and direct-to-consumer brands with store images and ad creative in one place. We make photoreal 3D product renders for every variant, lifestyle scenes, CGI and AI-assisted social ads, and edited video ads with hook variants for testing. It suits Shopify, Amazon and DTC brands that need consistent visuals and a steady flow of new creative.
- [Ad & creative agencies](https://escapereality.lk/industries/ad-agencies): Escape Reality works as a white-label production partner for advertising, branding and performance agencies. We take on CGI ads, 3D product renders, animation, video editing and AI content under NDA, matching your creative direction and timelines and staying invisible to your client. It gives agencies senior 3D and motion capacity without hiring.
- [Game studios](https://escapereality.lk/industries/game-studios): Escape Reality is a game art outsourcing studio for indie and mid-size developers. We make engine-ready 3D props, weapons, vehicles, characters and environment kits with LODs and PBR textures for Unreal Engine and Unity, plus cinematic trailers, key art and gameplay prototypes. We match your art style, budgets and pipeline, starting with a small paid art test.
- [Furniture & home goods](https://escapereality.lk/industries/furniture-home): Escape Reality produces photoreal 3D renders for furniture, lighting and home-goods brands. That covers white-background silo shots, every fabric, wood and finish combination, and fully styled room scenes for websites and ads. Configurable products with many variants are much cheaper to render than to photograph, and the 3D models can also power AR and 3D viewers.

## Case studies

It shows how we keep a brand character consistent and on-brand in AI-generated scenes.

## Comparisons

- [3D rendering vs product photography](https://escapereality.lk/compare/3d-rendering-vs-product-photography): 3D product rendering beats photography when you need many angles, colourways or SKUs, visuals before the product exists, or shots a camera can't get, such as exploded views. Photography still wins for real people, food and authentic lifestyle moments. Many brands use both, with CGI for the catalogue and hero visuals and photography for people-led content.
- [3D studio vs freelancer vs in-house](https://escapereality.lk/compare/studio-vs-freelancer-vs-in-house): Hire a freelancer for small, one-off tasks with a tight budget. Build an in-house team when you have constant, full-time volume. Choose a small specialist studio when you need reliable quality across modelling, animation, editing and delivery without full-time salaries. That's the gap most growing brands, agencies and game studios fall into.
- [CGI ads vs live-action shoots](https://escapereality.lk/compare/cgi-vs-live-action-ads): CGI ads are better for products, tech, cars and ideas that need impossible camera moves, perfect control or reuse across many formats and campaigns. Live-action is better when real people, emotion and real locations carry the story. A hybrid, with live footage plus CGI product shots, often gives the best of both.
- [AI video vs 3D animation](https://escapereality.lk/compare/ai-video-vs-3d-animation): AI video is fastest for mood films, concepts, backgrounds and high-volume social content, but it still struggles with exact products, logos, text and consistency between shots. 3D animation gives precise control and accurate products. The strongest results in 2026 come from hybrid workflows, with 3D for the product and AI for environments, variety and speed.
- [Outsourcing 3D & video to Sri Lanka](https://escapereality.lk/compare/outsourcing-to-sri-lanka): Outsourcing 3D, CGI and video work to an experienced Sri Lankan studio typically gives you comparable quality to Western studios at a noticeably lower cost, with English communication and working hours that overlap with Europe, the Middle East, Asia and Australia. The main thing to check is the studio's portfolio and process, not its location.

## Guides

- [How long does a 3D product animation take?](https://escapereality.lk/guides/how-long-does-3d-product-animation-take): A simple 3D product turntable usually takes 3–7 working days. A 15–30 second cinematic product animation typically takes 2–4 weeks from approved concept to delivery, and a 60-second launch film with complex simulation can take 4–8 weeks. Having CAD files and fast feedback are the two biggest speed-ups.
- [What files do you need for 3D product rendering?](https://escapereality.lk/guides/what-files-for-3d-product-rendering): The best starting point for 3D product rendering is a CAD file (STEP, IGES, OBJ or FBX) plus photos of the real finishes and your logo artwork in vector format (AI, SVG or PDF). If you don't have CAD, clear photos from front, side, back and top with key dimensions are enough for an accurate model.
- [How to brief a 3D or video studio](https://escapereality.lk/guides/how-to-brief-a-3d-studio): A good creative brief answers six things in one page. What is it, who is it for, where will it run, what should it feel like (with references), what assets you already have, and your deadline and budget range. With those, a studio can give you an accurate fixed quote within a day.
- [10 CGI ad ideas for e-commerce brands](https://escapereality.lk/guides/cgi-ad-ideas-for-ecommerce-brands): The CGI ad formats that work best for e-commerce brands are faux-OOH (giant products in real cities), exploded and x-ray views, ingredient or material stories, transformation reveals, satisfying loops, colourway carousels, unboxing in CGI, scale-play, impossible physics, and 3D product-in-lifestyle scenes. Each can be cut into 6–15 second social ads.
