Application:

Lenticular Windows Layout

The Burberry marketing team considered that the lenticular 3D medium was more likely to catch the passerby’s attention, and keep the viewers captive for a much longer period of time in their window displays.

They transformed their window display in an interactive space to draw customers in store. A static 2D image, albeit beautifully printed, will never have the impact and stopping power of lenticular projected animated kisses to the viewers outside the stores. Another good example where the power of Softmotion 3D lenticular prints was exploited successfully.

Technique: Lenticular Animation

A series of images coming together to create seamless motion, with video-like sequence that will bring visuals to life.

The illusion of motion actually comes from either a selection of digital betacam frames or sequential still images. This lenticular animation effect is great for emphasizing body movement or mechanical action.
