The 7-Step Bellonie Studio Workflow

1
Initial Consultation

Every Bellonie Studio project begins with a comprehensive consultation where we understand your vision, requirements, and project goals. This foundation ensures alignment before any modeling work begins.

What Happens:
  • Discussion of project objectives and intended use of renderings
  • Review of architectural style preferences and design intent
  • Clarification of required views, angles, and perspectives
  • Identification of key features to emphasize
  • Discussion of timeline, budget, and deliverables
Client Inputs Required:
  • Project brief or design intent document
  • Reference images showing desired atmosphere or style
  • Information about target audience and marketing goals
  • Specific requirements for materials, lighting, or entourage
Bellonie Studio Outputs:
  • Detailed project proposal outlining scope and deliverables
  • Timeline with key milestones
  • Transparent pricing breakdown
  • Agreement on revision process
2
Document Review & Analysis

Bellonie Studio thoroughly analyzes all architectural documentation to ensure accuracy before 3D modeling begins. This prevents errors and reduces revision rounds later in the process.

What Happens:
  • Detailed review of 2D plans, elevations, and sections
  • Cross-checking dimensions and architectural details
  • Identification of areas requiring clarification
  • Study of site context and surrounding environment
  • Analysis of material specifications and finishes
Client Inputs Required:
  • AutoCAD files (DWG, DXF), Revit models, or SketchUp files
  • PDF plans, elevations, and sections if CAD files unavailable
  • Material specifications and finish schedules
  • Site plans showing context and landscaping
  • Product datasheets for specific furniture or fixtures
Bellonie Studio Outputs:
  • Confirmation of document completeness
  • List of clarification questions if needed
  • Camera angle proposals for client approval
3
3D Modeling

Bellonie Studio builds accurate three-dimensional models from your architectural drawings using industry-leading software. This digital foundation ensures geometric accuracy and proper spatial relationships.

What Happens:
  • Creation of base 3D geometry from plans and elevations
  • Modeling of architectural details, moldings, and features
  • Addition of furniture, fixtures, and interior elements
  • Modeling of landscape elements and site context
  • Camera positioning based on approved viewpoints
Client Inputs Required:
  • Approval of proposed camera angles
  • Clarification on design details if drawings are unclear
  • Preferences for furniture style and placement
Bellonie Studio Outputs:
  • Clay renders showing geometry and composition
  • Preview images for composition approval
  • Opportunity for camera angle adjustments before proceeding
4
Material & Lighting Setup

This critical phase transforms basic geometry into photorealistic scenes. Bellonie Studio applies accurate materials, textures, and lighting that replicate real-world conditions.

What Happens:
  • Application of photorealistic materials and textures
  • Setup of physically accurate lighting scenarios
  • Configuration of natural daylight and artificial lighting
  • Addition of atmospheric effects like depth of field
  • Integration of entourage (people, vehicles, plants)
Client Inputs Required:
  • Material preferences and finish selections
  • Desired time of day for lighting
  • Weather and seasonal preferences
  • Approval of entourage style and density
Bellonie Studio Outputs:
  • Test renders showing materials and lighting
  • Material samples for client review
  • Confirmation before final rendering phase
5
High-Resolution Rendering

Bellonie Studio uses advanced rendering engines like V-Ray, Corona Renderer, and Unreal Engine to produce photorealistic images at the highest resolution and quality levels.

What Happens:
  • Optimization of render settings for maximum quality
  • Multiple render passes for flexibility in post-production
  • Quality control checks during rendering process
  • Generation of high-resolution output files
  • Creation of alternative lighting scenarios if requested
Client Inputs Required:
  • Confirmation that previous milestones are approved
  • No inputs typically needed during rendering phase
Bellonie Studio Outputs:
  • Raw high-resolution rendered images
  • Multiple render passes for post-production flexibility
  • Progress updates on rendering completion
6
Post-Production

Professional post-production elevates renders from good to exceptional. Bellonie Studio fine-tunes every aspect to achieve the perfect balance of realism and visual impact.

What Happens:
  • Color correction and grading for optimal mood
  • Contrast and exposure adjustments
  • Enhancement of atmospheric effects
  • Subtle retouching and refinement
  • Addition of final details and polish
Client Inputs Required:
  • Feedback on initial post-produced version
  • Preferences for color tone and atmosphere
  • Any specific adjustments desired
Bellonie Studio Outputs:
  • Post-produced preview images for review
  • Comparison with raw renders to show enhancements
  • Opportunity for post-production adjustments
