Create Super Sweet Product Virtuals with CoverAction Pro
You guys. I need to tell you about a Photoshop tool that I have used for about 10 years to create incredible virtuals and product mockups for my clients.
CoverAction Pro (CAP from here on out) is a tool that you use with Photoshop. With it you can create sharp, client impressing, 3D mockups of books, magazines, DVD discs and packaging and bunches more.
I have used this tool for almost 10 years and it has absolutely paid for itself. There are three use cases where I have found CAP to be an absolute time saver and even sales tool.
Sell Your Client on a Design The First Time
If you do much creative client work, you've no-doubt worked with a client who would "know it when he sees it." Individuals like this need your help to catch the vision for a book cover design, brochure or postcard. Show them the flat files, but wow them with a mockup that helps them envision what the final product is going to look like.
Providing a mockup like this can reduce the amount of time spent on revisions and can help you get to project sign-off faster.
Digital Product Photos
There have been times when I've worked with a client on a digital product. Most of the time in the form of an e-book but I've also done digital downloads for videos. These products have a unique challenge when it comes to selling. How do you convince a customer that they are getting something of value?
A product photo that conveys a digital product in the traditional, physical sense can go a long way towards making a sale. Just make sure that you clearly communicate the digital nature of the product.
Physical Product Photos and Virtuals
Sometimes you cannot commit the time or expense involved in shooting a photo of a book, CD, or other product. If you've got the artwork used to print the book cover or face of a compact disc, you can use CAP to generate a product photo that will rival any photograph you snap.
There have been times that I've been asked to put a product up for pre-sale. In those cases, it's ideal to have a product photo. CAP has saved my butt in these cases as I've been able to quickly produce a virtual image of the product to come.
