I have a photo of a blank exhibition stand and I wanted to add some content to it to show how it might look. The stand is curved and the photograph is taken at an angle. I hoped I might be able to:
- Draw around the outline of the exhibition stand
- Convert the outline to a mesh
- Add text and bitmaps that automatically warp to fit the mesh, so they look like they're actually on the exhibition stand.
I’ve played about with all the warp/perspective/gradient mesh/3D tools in Illustrator and Photoshop but can’t find anything suitable. Illustrator’s perspective tool works for straightforward perspectives, but doesn’t appear to work with irregular shapes such as mine.
I can‘t find anyone else wanting to do this – perhaps I’m approaching it the wrong way? How do I go about it?
