What we do
Combining creativity and technical understanding with the eye for detail, Optical 3D offer the complete range of solutions to your visual communication needs, with the level of quality and innovation to keep you ahead of the competition.
By taking time to understand your product or project requirements, our team of illustrators and designers are able to suggest and guide clients to the best solution for their needs. The same team then works with the client throughout the process to ensure that the agreed image or animation is delivered on time and on budget.
Unlike using an illustration agency where you don’t get to meet or talk to the artist who is creating your work, we understand the need for this relationship with the client and have found it necessary for continued success and follow on projects with the companies we work for.
