Camping with Flavor

Taylor created this 3D product rendering for Wild Fire Spice Co., a fast growing startup redefining backcountry flavor. With 15 retail partners nationwide in just their first two months, the brand needed visuals that captured the energy and innovation behind their powdered hot sauce, designed specifically for backpacking with no risk of spills, shattered bottles, or excess weight. Starting from a simple photographic reference and the original label design, Taylor built the product model and developed a dynamic particle simulation to create a swirling pillar of fire sparks, evoking the wild, smoky tang of their "Summit Smolder" and “Cayenne Canyon” flavors. From there, the 3D product could be featured in any number of environments. If Wild Fire can dream it, he can make it.
