A full exterior, interior, and sea-trial visualization package for the launch of Halcyon Yachts' flagship vessel — the largest hybrid-drive yacht in their fleet to date.
We worked in tight collaboration with Halcyon's in-house naval architects, using their hull-form geometry as the foundation for every render. The challenge was twofold: capture the elegance of traditional superyacht silhouette while honoring the technical achievement of the hybrid-drive propulsion system.
Our team built the entire vessel in Houdini, with custom marine material shaders developed specifically for the project. Lighting was calibrated against a reference week of golden-hour photography from the Riviera. Atmospherics — water, sky, spray — were simulated using our proprietary marine toolkit, refined over fifteen years of naval work.
The launch reel was cut in stereo for the Monaco premiere and broadcast in 8K for the press kit. Every frame was reviewed at 1:1 against the brief before final delivery.
