We feel strongly that animations are a great tool for the science filmmaker and something that everyone should learn. You don’t have to be a master; there are several simple techniques/programs that you can use to start. We’ll highlight the ones we have had the most success with and that seem to be the most commonly used. Science and natural history films are designed to explain natural phenomena on Earth. Recently these documentaries have started to include more animations to tell a story quickly and graphically, in ways that standard footage can’t. Scientific Animations is a full-service medical animation and integrated e-learning solutions company. Our stunning 3D medical animations and deep domain expertise make us sought after thought partners for top pharma, biotech and medical device companies.

Aur work process

Most of the animations are done by traditional 2D animation techniques, where each plate is painstakingly drawn by the animators. Today, computers allow animators to speed up the process with digital format. The computer can create the in-between motion when we want a graphic to move across the frame. Flash and After Effects are the main programs that achieve this.
