Template Strategy

Matryoshka, also known as Babushka Dolls or Stacking Dolls, are the set of wooden dolls of decreasing size placed one inside another. Each unique Template used in our dynamic image blending process is similar to individual stacking dolls in Matryoshka. Our Matryoshka strategy for blended images incorporates dynamic objects or elements to create digital cityscape location output for Template A which is then used as the background element for Template B. The Template B, in its turn, is used as the foundation element for Template C which contains the additional props. By using a “collection” of related Dynamic Templates, large numbers of unique location content can be generated. The Matryoshka strategy can be utilized for many different categories of digital media content creation.

Template A - Cityscape

Our Matryoshka Template A Overview Video illustrates the power of dynamic templating. We use location specific Points of Interest files (i.e. landmarks, famous buildings, etc.) and clusters of buildings to create unique cityscapes for use in local advertising. Through the application of various styles, colors, gradients and effects, we are able to produce tens of thousands (if not hundreds of thousands for the largest cities) of unique cityscapes for localities throughout the world. The cityscape output created by Template A is used in Template B, which incorporates a Building Background to create depth; a Sky Background and a Foreground (i.e. road, river, grass, etc.) to create a Location Scene.

Template B - Cityscape Scene

The Stylistic Illustration below reflects our location image blending process for Location Cityscape Template A. We blend specific location images that include the following components: Cityscape, Background Cityscape, Sky and Foreground. All these elements are dynamically inserted from our database to produce large numbers of unique image blended content.

Template D - Text placeholder

Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.
