Digital Arts

MHAworks offers state-of-the-art design and digital arts services to our clients. Our staff of digital designers provides the following services:

High Resolution Architectural Photography

MHAworks provides clients with High Resolution "digital negatives" in a 16 bit TIFF format for long-term digital archiving, along with high-resolution image files for print and online use. These images have enough resolution to be printed at 36"x48" with no perceptible loss in image quality.

Photogrammetry

Known in the context of architecture as Image Modeling, photogrammetry is the science of re-constructing real environments from coordinates derived from a series of photographs. A complex computer algorithm is utilized to accurately recreate in 3D the elements which appear in the photos. Image Modeling is useful for visual effects and complex visualizations that require digitizing real locations or buildings. Once the objects are image modeled, any 3D manipulation is possible, adding or removing parts of a scene, adding atmospheric effects, or camera moves.

3D Concept Design

MHAworks uses the latest technology and software tools to provide everything from basic concept studies to very complex 3D models and simulations. These 3D models and simulations allow the client to better access the project's look and space, thus allowing changes to be made prior to construction.

Computer Based Lighting Simulations

Using digital simulation technology, designers have the ability to accurately simulate indoor and outdoor lighting. Utilizing the same rendering algorithms and software environments used in the visual effects industry, we can show a project realistically lit with respect to its geographic location, time of year, time of day and more.

Additional services include: Animation, Walkthroughs, Flyarounds, Motion Graphics, Video production, and Graphic Design.
