The brief

Protocols is an in-house venture at EVG / Arilo: a supplement range that needed e-commerce product imagery, shelf and lifestyle visuals, and print-ready label artwork — before physical product photography was practical.

Instead of shooting bottles, I built them. Each SKU is modelled in Blender against the manufacturer’s spec sheet, so the geometry matches what will actually come off the line — and the label artwork wraps the same body that prints.

How we did it.

4 steps, from brief to launch.

  1. 01

    Model to manufacturing spec

    Build digital twins that match the real bottles.

    Bottle and tub geometry modelled from the manufacturer’s dimensions — not from reference photos — with a scripted, repeatable Blender studio setup for consistent camera and lighting across every SKU.

  2. 02

    One source, three surfaces

    Drive PDP, shelf, and print from the same files.

    Label artwork is designed flat, wrapped onto the twin for renders, and exported print-ready — so the product page, the shelf render, and the physical label can never disagree.

  3. 03

    Render the range

    Give every flavour its own world.

    Ingredient-led backdrops per SKU — moringa among botanicals, resveratrol against grapes, turmeric with the root itself — re-lit and re-shot in hours, not studio days.

  4. 04

    Hand off to manufacturing

    Close the loop back to the physical product.

    Sizing documents and label dielines handed to the manufacturer from the same source files that made the marketing imagery.

The full sets.

2 sets, every piece sized for where it lives.

The result

A single 3D source of truth feeding e-commerce, retail, and print.

  • The whole range can be re-lit, re-shot, and re-flavoured without a studio day — new SKUs inherit the pipeline.
  • Label artwork and product renders stay in lockstep, because they come from the same file.
  • Manufacturing sizing handoff produced from the same source as the marketing imagery.
