Direct Dimensions provides professional texture photography services for film, television and commercial VFX production, giving artists and supervisors the reference material they need to build photorealistic assets and environments. From on-set surface photography and tileable texture capture to HDR panoramas for image-based lighting and lighting reference photography, we cover the full range of what a production’s look development and rendering pipeline requires. Our texture work integrates directly with PBR workflows, providing diffuse, specular and roughness reference that speeds up material creation for both offline rendering and real-time engines. With years of on-set experience working alongside data wranglers, VFX coordinators and supervisors, we understand production pace and deliver organized, clearly labeled datasets that are ready to use. When combined with our 3D scanning services, texture photography becomes part of a complete digital asset capture solution for any production need.
