About
Architect, animator, visualizer.
DreamRender is the visualization studio Cibi Chakravarthi led in Kerala, India, now working again from North Carolina.
DreamRender grew up in Kerala, led by Cibi Chakravarthi, an architect by qualification and a traditional animator by training. From 2007 the studio produced images and films for some of South India's largest projects.
- Technopark, Trivandrum: imagery and films for the Phase III campaign, from the first contract in 2007 until after the complex opened.
- Infopark Redux, Kochi: a marketing walkthrough of the CRN Architects design that mixed live video and animation, unveiled at the inauguration by the then Chief Minister of Kerala, V. S. Achuthanandan.
- Havelock Island resort, Andamans: visualization and design validation for Ecorythm Architects, rendered in the CryEngine game engine because the resort was modular.
- Atlantis Apartments, Mangalore: first previz three days after the work order, and the full film finished in 20 days, with 96 cores rendering for 14 days straight.
Clients include Kumar Group (Kent Apartments, Nandini Residence), SVA Architects (Mathur Apartments), SFS Builders (Silicone Meadows), KGISL, Olive Builders (Kalista), MARG Properties (Marg Brindavan) and the Mangalore Special Economic Zone.
Today DreamRender works from Cornelius, North Carolina, for architects, builders and developers in the US and India. See Cibi's personal portfolio at cibichakravarthi.com.
