Freedes Studio

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

Dryden Architecture and Design is a full-service architecture and interior design company. I'm an architect.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Freedes Studio, and what were your goals?

We hired Freedes Studio to produce photo-realistic renderings of our Tabernacle commercial development project. We wanted fast, affordable service with good collaborators.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We chose Freedes Studio based on their online portfolio.

Describe the engagement and overall scope of work in detail, including the stages of the partnership.

They took our 3D model and worked with us to refine the material palette, view angle, entourage, and some design details, to produce photo-realistic renderings for the client.

What were the terms and the value of the lease, and what percentage did Freedes Studio take in commission?

Freedes Studio charged a flat rate per rendering.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We worked with two people at Freedes Studio, one initially to solicit a proposal and another throughout the project.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the engagement or general feedback about the services?

Nothing measurable, but Freedes Studio's renderings were fantastic and their turnaround was quick.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

They communicated mainly via email and completed the project in less than 12 days.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

I found their speed very impressive. Whenever we submitted rounds of revisions, not only did we get everything back exactly according to our comments, but they turned it around very fast, sometimes in less than 24 hours.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

No, they're excellent.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I'm the Creative Director for a residential real estate development company.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Freedes Studio, and what were your goals?

I needed high qulity renderings of projects we are working on.

SOLUTION

How did you select Freedes Studio and what were the deciding factors?

They have a history of delivering high quality products, they take good feedback and they do it all on time.

Describe the scope of work in detail, including the project steps, key deliverables, and technologies used.

Typically I will do rough sketches of what Im looking for and put together a set of directions including angles I'd like represented, design selections to use, # of images, etc. They respond with a quote and any questions they have.

I approve the quote. Depending on the size of the project, they turn around a first draft in 3-5 business days. From there I get 2 rounds of revisions, which typically takes 2-3 days (depending on how fast/diligent I am at turning the redlines around).

How many people from the Freedes Studio team worked with you, and what were their positions?

I believe they have a large team, though I've only talked to two project managers. They do a great job of relaying anything needed between me and their creative team.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any measurable outcomes of the project or general feedback about the deliverables?

The very best part about Freedes Studio is that they are reliably high quality. I've worked with a lot of other rendering artists, and the work can vary widely. Freedes regularly creates images we can rely on to boost our marketing content to the next level.

Describe their project management style, including communication tools and timeliness.

We do everything directly through email, which I prefer. I've got a direct line to the project manager, and they typically respond within 24 hours. One thing I actually like is that they DON'T have a 'proprietary project management app.'

Other teams I've worked with require me to work entirely in their app. It screws up my workflow, and I never know if I'm talking to a chatbot or a human. Freedes takes the materials I create in the format I prefer and they go from there. Its great.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

Their consistency in providing top-tier services is impressive in the workflow.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

No. Compared to other offerings in the rendering space, they are the best I've ever worked with.

BACKGROUND

Please describe your company and your position there.

I am the junior designer at an interior design and real estate marketing firm in Vancouver, Canada.

OPPORTUNITY / CHALLENGE

For what projects/services did your company hire Freedes Studio?

We hired Freedes Studio to create digital 3D renderings for us for real estate marketing purposes. They created indoor and outdoor renderings for us.

SOLUTION

How did you select this vendor and what were the deciding factors?

We connected with the vendor many years ago and have loved working with them. They are quick, good at communicating, and understanding of our wants and needs.

Describe the project in detail and walk through the stages of the project.

We sent over our instructions, which included floor plans, elevations, materials, and furniture selections. Freedes studio then showed us clay 3D render views so we can select the angle of the rendering, and then they proceeded with the coloured 3d renders. We were able to make 2 rounds of revisions to make sure the product was exactly how we envisioned, and Freedes studio was able to make that possible.

How many resources from the vendor's team worked with you, and what were their positions?

We mostly connected with one project manager, Anastasia, but we also met two of her colleagues during zoom calls.

RESULTS & FEEDBACK

Can you share any outcomes from the project that demonstrate progress or success?

The renders accurately represent the homes and have been very helpful in the sales of the real estate project.

How effective was the workflow between your team and theirs?

Workflow was very effective, Anastasia always responded very quickly and they delivered the products on time.

What did you find most impressive or unique about this company?

The fast paced work ethic and good communication skills.

Are there any areas for improvement or something they could have done differently?

The library that they have access to does not have all the exact models I would like, but the team is very good at finding good alternates.
