The Power of 3D Backgrounds and 3D Scenes
To kick off 2025, we launched our brand-new, industry-leading 3D Scenes and 3D Backgrounds. Optimized for a variety of DCCs—from Unreal Engine to Blender to VRED—our 3D scenes integrate color-calibrated RAY HDRi Maps, 360° visuals, ground planes/3D floors, and custom 3D elements for realistic parallax.
Our artistic community is already responding with overwhelmingly positive feedback on these new 3D scenes.
We’re also thrilled to share that many artists have begun incorporating our 3D scenes into their personal and production work.
For our February Artist of the Month, we’re thrilled to highlight David Baylis, a longtimevmember of the CGI.Backgrounds community who has proven pivotal to the launch of our new 3D Scenes and 3D Backgrounds, both as an advisor, an educator, and a world-class 3D artist.
As the founder of David Baylis Design , Baylis focuses on automotive rendering for clients including Porsche North America, Rivian, and more. Baylis also brings experience at Epic Games, where he created webinars and video tutorials around 3D rendering.
You may recognize Baylis’ gifts as an educator from the clear, comprehensive videos on our Getting Started page , where he walks our newest users through setting up an account and using the CGI.Backgrounds site.
Now, Baylis has turned his skills–both as an artist and a teacher–towards showcasing the power of our new 3D Scenes and 3D Backgrounds.
In a recent video, Baylis walks users through finding 3D Scenes on the CGI.Backgrounds site and adding them to Unreal Engine, shows the problems they solve, and demonstrates creating a stunning render–all in under 6 minutes!
