Summary

Jason Hamilton of Bed Bath and Beyond joins Daniel to discuss what the future of e-commerce content could look like. We discuss the early days of product rendering, its evolution, and how today's creative teams likely fit into to this new generation of content. 

Key Takeaways

• Computer Renderings have the potential to overtake traditional e-commerce  imagery  as the process gets cheaper and faster
• Retailers in home goods and other traditionally large items are using renderings already to save costs associated with photographing huge products
• The process for creating rendered product images can look a lot like a traditional photography process, except virtual
• Current photographers, stylists and other studio teams can provide invaluable input to help aid rendered imagery. We expect todays studio teams to play a big role in the future of rendered imagery
