Clarity.
We turn complex products into visuals people instantly understand. Engineering detail translated into an image you can read in two seconds.
About XO3D
We are XO3D.
A product CGI studio creating launch-ready assets since 2017. Making products feel premium, understandable, and ready to buy before they ship.
XO3D turns complex products into photoreal films, stills and interactives. Engineering detail becomes clear, intentional imagery for launches, campaigns and product teams.
We help our partners articulate their vision across every digital and physical touchpoint. UK-based team, global delivery, campaign-ready assets.
Interactive and web delivery is led by Lemuel Apa, Head of Web Development, connecting the CGI work to the product experiences it is built for.
Founded in 2017 by Thomas Howcroft, Founder and Creative Director, the studio was incorporated as XO3D Ltd in 2019 when Alex Mann joined as co-founder and Managing Director.

What we care about
Craft.
Every detail matters: materials, lighting, motion, finish. The frame either earns its place or it does not ship.
Conviction.
Every project has a Creative Director. Every frame has an intention. We never render without a reason.
Partnership.
We integrate with your team: external creative team, in-house, or founder-led. The relationship is the work as much as the output is.
“When a client trusts the studio, the brief gets better. When the brief gets better, the work gets better.”Alex Mann
