Overview
Cushion commissioned a 3D product launch centered around four SKUs: Tropical, Sweet Mint, Spearmint, and Citrus. I was initially provided with a single storyboard for one video. From that, I developed a modular visual system that translated into eight total deliverables:
Project Goal
Transform a single storyboard into a multi-SKU, multi-format system.
Distinguish each flavor through vibe, gradients, and subtle atmospheric cues.
Create a 3D environment that feels calming, ambient, and niche while staying cohesive across the product line.
Build a flexible workflow that accelerates production of additional variations.
Deliver polished vertical + horizontal versions that work seamlessly across platform.
Skills & Tools
3D & Motion
Blender (lighting, shading, animation, rendering)
Product rendering & material creation
Gradient-driven environmental design
Motion Graphics & VFX
Procedural transitions
Color-matched motion systems
Flavor-based atmospheric FX
Pipeline & Production
Multi-format (9:16 / 16:9) adaptive layout
Template system built from a single storyboard
SKU-based batch workflow
Brand-driven iterative design
What began as one storyboard became a scalable launch system:
4 SKU identities
8 total videos
Unified style across flavors
Distinct personality for each product
Rapid future expansion capability
The gradient-first design language successfully communicated each flavor’s “vibe” — calming, ambient, flavorful, and visually memorable — strengthening Cushion’s brand recognition in both short- and long-form content spaces.
