A VFX experiment blending brand, beach, and simulation

Bottle of Sun Bum SPF 70 sunscreen on a rocky beach with blue sky and colorful beach balls floating around.

The Idea

I turned a Sun Bum bottle into a giant beach landmark. The scale gave it playful energy while keeping the brand instantly recognizable.

The Creation

I scanned the beach rock with LiDAR to anchor the bottle in a real environment. This provided natural lighting and shadows that made the scene feel authentic.

The Tools

Blender was used for the simulation, lighting, and rendering. Compositing brought the scan and CG together into a single shot.

The Final Product

The finished video shows a towering bottle rising from the shoreline, blending real footage with digital craft so the effect feels grounded.
