Here are a few raw 3D renders for anyone in the Peoria area that are interested, of the very first 3D model I decided to make. And why not make my first model of my alma mater.
I'll call it Kaboom 1.0 (2.0 can include some improvements, but not bad for the first attempt)
After modelling & rigging it up for animations, I placed Kaboom in a 3D rendered scene that I made based off the Peora, IL downtown area and also according to gps locations to get a good scale/proportions of the buildings.
Hope you all like!

VIDEO MARKETING - CENTRAL ILLINOIS
Updating our new promo video, hope you enjoy!
(it was fun making this even while never picking up a video camera)

Greetings Everyone!
Couple things I’d like to share:
(1) One of our media works produced for a client last year
(2) To Introduce my team roster here at Vivid Envisions video
production
(1)The goal of the video in this post was to come up with a unique way in how we’re going to convey the clients message and to maintain engagement in the entire 5 minute video.
Creativity was a requirement, so I quickly got in touch with my Production Manager and we discussed that a project like this would need to lean a bit in the graphics department, possibly even 3d work as well. So we briefed our graphics team on what was to come their way.
That just left our camera crew to get started on the documenting so we have some decent b-roll. The journey was exciting and always worth it when we get to create stories.
Creation can be challenging at times when all the other departments in your business are trying to work in sync.
As a solo entrepreneur in my 6th year, I’ve always been in awe of other businesses that consist of so many departments. So many layers the list goes on….
HR, billing, accounting, managers, etc.
For instance in the industry I'm in, producing video/media content for business solutions relies on more than just video & camera (graphics team, video crew, grips, lighting, audio, editors, etc)
(2)So I thought I’d share a roster of what my business team currently looks like.
We are growing btw!

Hannah LSW title
Outside of selling ourselves during the golden opportunity of job interviews, I’m curious why many of us discontinue our self-marketing until the next job interview occurs?
As people seem to always be searching for that better opportunity in their careers, there also seems to be a marketing hiatus after we acquire a job while we live in a time where videos work 24/7 on their own, for free.
So why would a current employee anywhere need a video, they’re already on a payroll right?
It turns out that there are valid reasons to do just this, and I wanted to focus on just one of those reasons that hopefully if anything, this post can jog someone's mind in how video can benefit anyone outside of entrepreneurship.
I wanted to highlight the perseverance of a licensed social worker (LSW) Hannah Biggs in the beginning of her career (3rd year in the workforce) but also how video marketing helped justify her actions to advertise as a young employee fresh out of college.
Most social workers do not have a video produced of themselves while at the same time as social workers employed by businesses can be expected to grow their own clientele, a circumstance that isn’t new in careers like this.
But I’m curious if they would make a video of themselves if they knew it could acquire more work for themselves if/when they are not currently meeting this quota as it did/does for Hannah.
As a video media producer myself, to be honest, some of these needs to advertise (as an employee) were completely brand new to me until producing a video for Hannah and her social work career and more importantly able to hear about her results form the video (which ultimately prompted this post about how videos can benefit virtually anyone).
Hannah’s self-marketing determination is what ultimately led her to acquiring more clients, to the point that her schedule is now maxed out whereas her schedule was previously never maxed out until she had a professional looking video made for her (atta
Fulton St flying
A little virtual flying on Fulton St downtown Peoria.
Lots of kinks to work out still and lots more details to add.
(Next time I start a 3d project, I'll make sure to work on one building vs a whole city 😂.)

So much more building...
Peoria Downtown 3D
A sneak peak into some 3D modelling work of the Peoria downtown area in its early stages (along with some dizzing camera work I'm playing around with).
All of the buildings are to scale as well as the terrain levels. Except the Illinois river, I currently have the water level way overflowing as you can see on the 74 bridge 😁
I have the rest of the downtown buildings to scale also, but only wanted to display buildings that have some sort of completed texture on them.
So with a lot of detail to fill in yet, I wanted to share some of this Peoria model so far.
Stay tuned for the updates.
Took the drone up at this farm in Dunlap, IL called GnarlyOak Farm to get just a little peak about 60ft high. (some unique things here to check out sometime, just not on this particular frigid morning)

Here is the very first video shoot my son Jack Davis helped me with at a wedding.
Thankful for the weather!
30 Second Animation Commercial-Trust Jakes
Not a full time animator, but here is our very first animation commercial, for a plumbing & HVAC company in Indiana.
The Jake/Kelli cartoon logo was the only graphic given to us that was then chopped up and prepared for the animating.
And the 6 second Jakes audio jingle was given to us to use, but everything else was created by Vivid Envisions!
Foot & Ankle Specialists of Indiana
Another remote project for a local commercial Foot & Ankle Specialists of IN (local, if you're in Greenfield, IN)
As no camera was used, media supplied by client, along with voice/commercial sounds, and 0 miles driving, we then have the beginnings of a stripped down basic commercial, don't under estimate basic!
Not too bad for 'basic' production, (advanced edits with 3d motion graphics are also available per request:)
Give us a call if you have i3 media as your broadcast choice (Illinois, Indiana, Ohio, Michigan areas)
Christmas Parade 2021
Some raw snippets from the Christmas parade in Chillicothe. All drone footage, no ground camera for this one.
Need a commercial produced but you are hundreds or thousands of miles away?
Here are a couple commercials we produced for a bank in Blissfield, MI.
If you take a look, you'll see only about 5 seconds in each commercial actually had media provided by the client.
We did the rest.
We even made a 3d replica of their brick & mortar bank so that we can create whatever kind of camera shot we wanted to. And we never even picked up a camera or even drove a single mile to produce these.
