I really like it when architects put people into their 3d renderings of buildings, like some prophetic vision of what the future will be like, virtual people just hanging out in the planned building. I especially like it when they post these images in front of the actual construction sites. For the most part the people are just photographic 2d clipart plopped onto less-than-photo-real 3d renderings, which is why they look so awesome. (I’ll throw a couple more I’ve found into the secret stash…)

Is there a place where a company can buy images a people with transperant backgrounds? Like a getty images of figures just waiting to be placed in a space?

i sorta found one website that does that, where you can buy people, haha. i think you can buy the actual 3d models, too? these are pretty good, people in specific job poses. i love the guy in the haz mat suit doing poses. also:
