Mockup: Visualizing the Final Result
A Mockup is a realistic representation of how a design will look in its final environment, such as on a smartphone screen, a billboard, or a printed book cover.
Mockups are essential for client presentations. Most clients cannot visualize a flat 2D file as a physical product. By placing a logo on a high-quality photo of a storefront, you sell the 'vision' of the brand. For example, a UI designer might use a mockup of an iPhone to show how an app’s interface feels in a user’s hand.
