CGI advertising that earns attention instead of buying it.

FOOH campaigns, CGI ads and city-scale brand work for teams who need the idea to travel further than the media budget.

From giant products interacting with city landscapes to impossible visual moments, FOOH campaigns are designed to stop the scroll and spark conversation online.

Why brands build with CGI, not just shoot

A shoot alone has limits

A real location gets you attention. But a shoot can only capture what is already there. What exists, what the weather allows, what is safe to build.

CGI removes the limit, not the camera

We still shoot the real location. Then we add the thing a camera could never catch. Your product at the size of a building. A city that reacts to it. A launch film made before the first unit exists.

One build, every format

Once it is built, it is not locked to one shot. Ten versions, ten markets, ten formats, all from the same production. Nobody goes back to reshoot.

Questions about CGI advertising and FOOH

If you have more questions, feel free to send us an email. We’ll make our best to answer you as soon as we can.
What is CGI advertising?
Advertising where the product, the scene or both are built in 3D rather than filmed. It covers everything from a clean product film to a skyscraper wrapped in your packaging. Because nothing is physically built, the only real limit is the idea, and the same build can be cut for every channel the campaign runs on.
What is FOOH advertising?
FOOH stands for fake out of home. It is CGI placed into real footage of a real location, so a product appears to interact with a building, a street or a landmark that was never touched. Nothing is installed and nothing is filmed twice. It reads as out of home advertising and lives on social, which is where the audience actually is.
How much does a CGI ad cost?
It comes down to how complex the build is, how long the finished piece runs and how much is happening in the scene. A single product in a clean environment sits at one end. A city block reacting to it sits at the other. We quote per project once we have seen the brief.
How long does a CGI ad take to make?
Two to three weeks from brief to final files, with a rush timeline of five to seven days when a campaign date will not move. A concept comes back within 48 hours of the brief being agreed. We have turned work around in under 24 hours when it mattered.
What do you need from us to start?
For a campaign piece the location matters as much as the product, so start with where it should happen and what the product needs to do there. Then whatever you have of the product itself: a CAD file, a physical sample or good photography. Plus brand guidelines and the channels it runs on.
Can you put our product in a real city location without filming there?
Yes. That is the core of FOOH. Your product is built into footage of the real location, so nothing is installed and nothing is closed off, and there is no limit on what the product is allowed to do once it is there.
Can the same work run on a real DOOH billboard?
Yes. Anamorphic content for corner screens is a different master and a different set of constraints, but it comes from the same build. Brands usually run the billboard version and the social version from one project rather than commissioning twice. We have written about how 3D billboard advertising works if that is the route you are considering.
What formats do we get, and can we use them for paid social?
Vertical for Reels and TikTok, square and landscape for paid, high resolution for retail and out of home, and stills pulled from the animation. Name the channels at the start and they are covered at delivery.
How do you make sure it looks real and not like CGI?
That is the whole craft, and most of it sits in details nobody consciously notices. Matching the grain and lens character of the plate footage. Getting the light on the product to agree with the light already in the shot. Adding the reflections and contact shadows that tell your eye something is physically there. A FOOH piece fails when the product looks pasted on, so a good share of the work happens after the animation is finished rather than during it.
When would you tell us to film it instead?
When the product is in your hands, the scene is achievable, and you need one clean shot rather than a campaign. A shoot is often the cheaper answer there and we will say so. CGI earns its cost at impossible scale, on products that do not exist yet, or when a campaign needs twenty variants from one build. We have compared CGI and live action properly if it is a real decision for you. And if what you want is a single product animated beautifully rather than a campaign, that is our 3D product animation work.
Do you work with agencies as well as brands?
Yes. We work with brands and agencies worldwide, across time zones, with people in Warsaw, London and Lisbon.
