Technical Lookdevelopment,

In August 2021, I was asked to help the LEGO CG team pilot a transition from their Box Art photography workflow to a full CG workflow. The initialy framework already existed through efforts of Nicolai Slothuus, Jens Kafitz and some others. At the time they were processing around 150 sets of which half would reach the target quality. Within 18 months we were producing a little over 1200 sets a year. With each set's Box Art render collection requiring between 8 and 12 renders for print we we're totalling around 12.000 renders a year.
As of writing this update (02-sep-24) those shaders still produce Box Art prints on physical boxes in stores though I'm fairly confident they'll soon be phased out.
