When planning marketing or council submissions for your next development, choosing the right visualisation approach can significantly impact how your project is perceived. The two most common options are **static 3D renders** and **3D animations (flythroughs or walkthroughs)**. But which is best for your objectives?
At Studio 5253, we specialise in both static renders and high-quality animations, helping you select the ideal solution to communicate your design intent, captivate stakeholders, and accelerate approvals.
Static Renders: Photorealistic Snapshots of Your Vision
Static renders are still images showcasing the design in its best light, from interior details to external perspectives. They are quick to produce, cost-effective, and perfect for brochures, websites, signage, and basic council submissions.
When to choose static renders:
- When your budget is limited- For still imagery in print and web
- When showcasing key angles or hero shots
- For faster project turnaround
3D Animation: Bringing Your Project to Life
Animations take static renders to the next level, creating a video walkthrough or flythrough that moves through the property seamlessly. This dynamic approach immerses viewers, allowing them to understand spatial relationships, scale, and ambience as if they were physically there.


When to choose 3D animation:
- For launch videos and marketing campaigns
- When targeting off-plan buyers to create emotional connection
- For council presentations to show full flow and accessibility
- To stand out in competitive property markets
Which is Right for You?
The choice depends on your **project stage, target audience, and budget**. Often, combining both yields the best outcome: static renders for quick approvals and collateral, complemented by an animation for marketing campaigns that demand maximum impact.
At Studio 5253, our team guides clients through these decisions, ensuring your visual assets align with your goals and leave a lasting impression on every stakeholder.
