SMEG Toaster 3D Animation & Visualization | Autodesk 3ds Max & Chaos Vantage

This project features a detailed 3D animation and visualization of the iconic SMEG toaster, modeled in Autodesk 3ds Max and rendered in real-time using Chaos Vantage. The focus was on capturing the retro-modern aesthetic of the SMEG brand while highlighting the toaster's sleek form, vibrant textures, and reflective surfaces. The video showcases the toaster from various angles, emphasizing key design elements with dynamic lighting and smooth camera movements. Alongside the animation, I’ve included a series of high-resolution still images that detail the craftsmanship and materials used in the visualization.

Process:
- Modeling: Autodesk 3ds Max was used to create the precise geometry, capturing the clean lines and subtle curves of the toaster.  
- Rendering: Chaos Vantage allowed for real-time rendering with realistic reflections, soft shadows, and detailed textures. The lighting was carefully adjusted to enhance the product’s glossy finish and retro design.
Feel free to explore the video below and the accompanying still images to get a closer look at this vibrant product visualization!
