01 / Location
An American context.
Architecture and daylight were developed around the look of modern U.S. schools and colleges, with Minnesota as a reference.
Nilfisk needed its robotic floor scrubbers to feel at home in bright, modern American schools and colleges.
Scenes combined product renderings and photography with AI-created environments to build that world, without organising a location production in the United States.
The brief
The environment needed to feel calm and natural. People would bring life to the background, while the flooring, open space and cleaning machine remained clear in the composition.
01 / Location
Architecture and daylight were developed around the look of modern U.S. schools and colleges, with Minnesota as a reference.
02 / Composition
The scene needed to feel active without distracting from the machines. Casting, placement and depth kept that balance under control.
03 / Logistics
Working from the product assets removed the need to ship robots overseas, coordinate a large cast or book educational locations.
How it comes together
Nilfisk supplied the product rendering. Scenes created the setting and brought the two together through careful integration and post-production.

The supplied 3D rendering establishes the machine’s form and detail.

An open education setting creates the light, perspective and space the brief needs.

Scale, shadows, reflections and perspective bring the product into the scene.
“By combining our own 3D renderings with AI-generated scenes, we captured the exact look we wanted without compromising or dealing with costly logistics.”
Photography + AI
The collaboration also explored the approach with physical product photography. Scenes photographer Jeppe Sørensen photographed the SC25 at Nilfisk’s showroom in Brøndby.
The resulting image could then be placed in a carefully developed environment, combining a photographed machine with an AI-created setting.

AI-modifiedThe finished imagery places Nilfisk’s technology in a believable setting, with control over the light, the people and the space around the product.
