Drone Product Marketing Animation

I need a short, high-impact 3D animation that sells our new drone by showing it battling the elements above a rough ocean at night. The final piece will be used as the hero clip in a broader marketing video, so it has to feel cinematic, realistic, and polished enough to drop straight into our editor’s timeline.

Here’s the vision: the drone launches from a ship deck, skims low over dark, churning water, then climbs to reveal a moon-lit horizon. Waves crash, spray hits the lens, and the drone’s lights cut through sea mist before the logo lock-up ends the shot. I can supply you with the drone’s CAD files and branding assets; you’ll handle everything else—storyboard refinement, texturing, lighting, fluid simulation for the ocean, animation, rendering, and a basic sound bed for reference.

Deliverables
• 15–30 sec finished clip in 4K MP4 (H.264)
• Clean version plus version with simple SFX bed
• Project files (Blender, Maya, or Cinema 4D) and any external textures/cache

Acceptance
The animation must match the rough-ocean-at-night setting, render without artefacts, and be colour-graded for a dramatic, premium look. Two rounds of revisions are included so we can fine-tune timing and lighting.

If you’re comfortable with fluid sims, dynamic lighting, and photoreal rendering, I’d love to see a reel or sample that proves it.
