Fixip’s Perfect Blend : mastering CGI & retouch for breathtaking Cadillac Evergreen XT4 visuals – courtesy of Fixip & MP Curtet for Leo Burnett
Here on GoSee, FIXIP presents visuals crafted for the Cadillac Evergreen XT4. Despite adverse weather conditions, FIXIP transformed rainy, overcast scenes into vibrant, sunlit visuals. Creating entire atmospheres from scratch, the team added blue skies and bright hues to match the visual identity of Cadillac. Technically demanding, the project involved altering the environment significantly as well as integrating CGI cars – demonstrating the retouch skills of FIXIP. The result: visuals that pack a punch while aligning perfectly with Cadillac’s visual identity – to underscore the vibrant elegance of the Cadillac Evergreen XT4.
“This project, realized by Fixip Studio in collaboration with photographer and director team MP Curtet, was particularly interesting because it gave us the chance to work on the distinctive look & feel of the Cadillac brand. At the time, that meant very warm, vibrant, and colorful hues, which allowed us to create a unique and dynamic aesthetic.
However, the project presented certain challenges due to the weather conditions. It was often cloudy and gray, with a little rain in certain shots. Diffuse light and the color of the car posed further challenges as red can be tricky – particularly without direct sunlight.
We had to replace almost all skies and, in several images, also the car with CGI renders. Which enabled us to keep the car body a natural and vibrant red, even though the conditions for shooting were less than ideal. CGI is not only used to introduce new car models but also to replace the same car with better lighting in order to make the most of the image and compensate for climatic uncertainties.
Retouch work and CGI enabled us to master the challenges and produce visuals that are extremely impactful when it comes to color and dynamic energy. The client is extremely satisfied with the end result, and we’re proud of what we’ve accomplished for this project.”
