Problem
Near Earth Autonomy needed polished video, motion graphics, cleanup, or visual effects that made source footage feel clear, finished, and campaign-ready.
MayoFlux case study
Near Earth Autonomy Capabilities
Client / industry
Near Earth Autonomy works in robotics, autonomy, and aerospace technology. MayoFlux framed the work for the audience, use case, and product context behind the assignment.
Input assets
Agency direction from PMI, plus live-action footage, edit notes, brand direction, agency materials, voiceover, music, and review feedback.
Production process
MayoFlux handled post-production, cleanup, motion graphics, color, compositing, sound or conform work, then moved through practical review passes to final delivery.
Deliverables
Final video masters, cleaned or composited shots, motion graphics, color-finished exports, and platform-ready cutdowns as needed.
Outcome
A finished video asset that gave the campaign a cleaner, clearer, and more production-ready final presentation.
Project notes
Near Earth Autonomy�s next-gen flight-control demo needed visuals as advanced as its lidar navigation. Guided by PMI creative director Damien D’Amico, Mayoflux rebuilt the prototype drone from engineering meshes, optimizing geometry for close-up renders and adding rigged rotors, gimbals, and antenna arrays.
Working from the supplied 3D model, the team handled modeling tweaks, full animation, and lidar like particle effects. Cinema 4D helped visualize obstacle-avoidance maneuvers with some new spline techniques; Redshift rendered carbon-fiber weave and running lights in photoreal detail. The main challenge was depicting invisible sensor data without cluttering the frame, so custom particle trails and translucent point-cloud grids faded in only when they clarified a maneuver, then dissolved before the next beat.
The finished sequence premiered at an aerospace tech summit and has since headlined Near Earth Autonomy’s investor deck. The collaboration showcased how cinematic polish can make cutting-edge research instantly understandable. Mayoflux turns complex visuals into clear stories - let us simplify yours next.
