Abstract:
1. A method for electronically generating a single image comprising: receiving a selection of a first variation of a first consumer product layer with a first depth attribute from a plurality of variations of the first consumer product layer, each variation comprising at least one surface; receiving a selection of a second variation of a second consumer product layer with a second depth attribute from a plurality of variations of the second consumer product layer, each variation comprising at least one surface; layering the first variation of the first consumer product layer in the single image based at least on the first depth attribute; layering the second variation of the second consumer product layer in the single image based at least on the second depth attributes wherein each surface includes a texture map including a sync point, the sync point selected so that transitions between the at least one surface of the first consumer product layer and the at least one surface of the second consumer product layer in the single image accurately depict how a consumer product produced by the manufacturer appears; and applying a photography negative of an image of light interaction with at least one of the surfaces to the at least one of the surfaces to amplify the light interaction with the at least one of the surfaces.
