For example:

Scout Comics and Entertainment, a major comic book company that develops and publishes creator-owned comics (and also a repeat client of ours), reached out to produce an eye-catching floor display to showcase their newly released volumes in-store. While they provided a few of their own brand assets, we were able to really shine in the ideation and 3D modeling phases as well as creating additional graphic assets. With Scout Comic’s vision in mind, our team created a unique design influenced by vintage vending machines to be used as a major focal point in their shop for patrons to admire while browsing. Our 3D team created models to give them a detailed and accurate depiction of what customers would be viewing upon entrance.

Bay Cities’ customer-first approach combined with their years of experience helped Scout Comics and Entertainment bring their vision to reality to continue to cultivate a long-lasting relationship for past, present and future projects.

From creating the visual aspect of your product display to getting it manufactured and shipped using sustainable practices, you can trust that we have both you and the environment’s best interest at hand.

We’ll bring you along for the ride, providing a comprehensive scope of work from concept to completion so you can experience the full picture of what it means to bring a product to life on retail shelves.
