The Devil Is In The Details, Miss A Deadline And Youre A
Dead Duck!
by: Marcus Moorehead
As a consultant for real estate development specializing in
launching new projects into the marketplace, I have determined
the development of architectural renderings and animations are
an essential component of ensuring a projects success. Over the
last 15 years I have worked on hundreds of projects,
fortunately all ending in success. Over this period, I have
come to understand that effective communications of the vision
of a project to the key decision makers is crucial to the
success of the project. Outside of the projects Performa I have
discovered that architectural rendering or animation is one if
not the most important component to a projects success.
No matter the target audience, be it municipalities,
bankers, buyers or investors, key decision makers are bombarded
with multiple options regarding where to place their money.
Realizing the circumstances and competition, proposed projects
only have one chance to provide that most important first
impression. For the decision makers, it is the architectural
rendering or animation that provides your project the hope for
an immediate success or the chance for a second look. The
architectural rendering or animation in one glance sums up the
project. It leaves a lasting impression for the decision makers
enticing them to dive deeper into the project.
To create an architectural rendering or an animation,
talent, skill and craftsmanship are involved. For most
architectural renderers and animators, creating an
architectural rendering or animation is more of an exercise in
photorealism. It is my experience that most architectural
renderers or animators spend most of their time in the
development of the scene, making it as accurate as possible.
Time is spent in the details. Creators of architectural
renderings and animations scrupulously follow the architectural
drawings and sketches as closely as possible to accurately
convey what they perceive are the most important aspects of the
project. Unfortunately, most architectural renderings and
animation creators do not realize that in a proposed project,
the specific details are of less importance in delivering the
WOW of the first impression of the project. Most architectural
rendering and animation creators fail to recognize that at the
initial offering the proposed project design is in flux. Rather
than faithfully capturing the details of an early design the
primary goal of the architectural rendering or animation is to
spark initial interest in the project as a whole.
As a licensed architect one of the most profound sayings we
were taught through architectural school was the devil is in
the details. Meaning that attention needs to be paid to how the
users experience the building, the buildings designed, and the
longevity of its construction. However, in the creation of an
architectural rendering or animation the tendency of
architectural rendering and animation creators is to spend an
exorbitant amount of time focused strictly on accuracy and
detail, often times at peril of the deadline. Rather, projects
in the proposal stage must be first developed in broad strokes,
then medium strokes and finally down to specifics or the
details.
Understanding this, architectural rendering and animation
creators in todays market, utilizing todays technology, must
place a priority on communicating the projects vision and
placing the vision in the marketplace. This is the first and
most important goal of the architectural rendering and
animation creators service. It is the duty of the architectural
rendering and animation creator to prioritize time and
understand that time is of the essence and the single most
important asset of a new project. Time must always be taken at
the onset of the project to formulate the goals of the
architecture rendering and animation activity. Time must also
be devoted to developing a strategy for achieving the
architecture rendering and animation activitys goals including
the most important goal of communicate the projects vision.
Once the architecture rendering and animation products are
produced, the architectural rendering and animation creator
must always be ready to present at a moments notice.
The business of architectural rendering and animation draws
parallels to ones performance in sports, its not what you have
done [in the past] rather
