General Contractors Gain Competitive Edge in Winning Projects Through 3D
Animation
3D Architectural Renderer Offers Remarkable Timeline-Based Animation of
Project Progress






DALLAS, Nov. 2 /PRNewswire/ -- There are many firms that provide computer
generated renderings of yet-to-be-constructed buildings and other projects. 
These are helpful in showing clients what a completed building will look like.
Jeffrey Windler LLC, Architectural Media Solutions, is skilled in creating
photo-realistic renderings, but has now taken this idea to an entirely new
level.

Windler's group models the project in the same manner as if it was actually
being constructed.  They show the site being cleared and excavated, the
foundation being placed, and the steel being erected.  Ultimately, the
building skin is placed, one floor at a time, until the project is shown in a
completed state.  The entire process is then animated and tied to the
projected construction timeline.  A prospect can watch the project being
constructed from start to finish, and can see at any point on the timeline
precisely where the progress of construction is expected to be.  The animation
can even be rotated to look at the building from different viewpoints as
construction progresses.

The firm's most frequent users of this timeline-based animated 3D rendering
service are general contractors who are competing for large, complicated
projects.  They believe that being able to demonstrate their detailed
understanding of the complexities of constructing a major project on a tight
site give them a distinct competitive advantage.  On a recent assignment to
help a contractor win a very large building project, Windler hired the
services of a helicopter and photographer to capture aerial footage of a
downtown site.  He then digitally merged the virtual building into the real
video footage to create a photo-realistic 3D visualization of the building in
its urban location.
