Creation of an educational animated video explaining the mechanisms of cell transfection, from the design of the diagrams to the final edit, with over 70,000 views on YouTube.
The company Polyplus tasked me with designing and producing an educational animated video to explain the principle of cell transfection—a complex scientific topic intended for an audience of researchers and professionals in the biomedical sector.
The project began with a phase of scientific analysis and understanding. Using diagrams I had previously created for the client, I studied the various types of transfection as well as the specific technology developed by Polyplus-transfection. This phase of discussion and validation with the client was essential to ensure the scientific accuracy of the content before any production phase began.
I then created the storyboard, which helped structure the narrative, refine the flow of the animation, and set the pace of the various sequences. This step served as the basis for finalizing the message and narrative before moving on to the animation phase.
The various scenes were animated in After Effects, with particular attention paid to visual clarity, the readability of the diagrams, and smooth transitions. The final edit was done in Adobe Premiere Pro, incorporating all the scenes, the narration, and the overall pacing of the video.
The video explains what transfection is, its applications in scientific research, and highlights Polyplus-transfection’s expertise in chemical transfection reagents. Posted on YouTube, it has surpassed 70,000 views, demonstrating the effectiveness of the format and the relevance of the science outreach work carried out.
This project demonstrates my ability to translate complex scientific content into clear educational animations by combining technical understanding, visual storytelling, and proficiency in motion design tools.
