Products in Motion – Vertical Product Footage

Blending Vertical framing with Virtual Backgrounds

Evolved High-End Motion Control Solutions

I am offering a specialized vertical production service that delivers high-end studio precision without the overhead of a full commercial production. This “run-and-gun” motion control workflow, is designed to provide professional footage that’s affordable.

Virtual Background Tiers (Upwork/Fiverr Offers)

I offer three distinct levels for integrating virtual environments into your product shots:

1. Found Backgrounds: Rapid setup using simple, existing virtual solutions for a clean, low-cost look good for mock-ups and small personal projects.

2. Stock Footage Backgrounds: Integration of purchased professional stock footage to create a polished commercially safe atmosphere.

3. Custom Backgrounds: Bespoke environments built specifically for the shoot in After Effects matching the lighting and motion of the physical product.

Optional Multi-Format Services

For an additional fee, I provide solutions for brands needing both social and traditional framing:
Dual Setups: Simultaneous capture for dedicated vertical and horizontal (16:9) framing.
Wide Capture: Shooting wider frames and using After Effects to output matching vertical and horizontal clips in post [Query].

The Deliverable

You receive prepared footage clips processed in After Effects for output and EFX. I am providing high-quality, motion-controlled raw material for your editor to use, saving you significant production costs. Typically 5-20 sec

The Setup: Hybrid Product in Motion Tabletop Studio

Shots are produced in a dedicated 4’x4′ tabletop environment optimized for ‘product in motion’ cinematography.
Precision Motion: I use 4 pre-programmed camera positions to execute creative moves to show off product or setup specific post production goals.

Lighting Fundamentals: My focus is on shaping light to enhance textures and manage difficult surfaces, such as glass or reflective black bottles like shown.

Custom Rigging: The studio includes turntables and custom-fabricated rigs can be setup to achieve unique object motion.

After Effects: Post production offers the final steps for text and efx sky is the limits, with many options.
