Our process

The animation process

We Handle the Work,
You Provide Input

We know your time is limited. That’s why we handle the heavy lifting of video creation – complex science, storytelling, and production. All we need from you is occasional feedback.

Our streamlined process keeps you involved without overwhelming you. Whether reviewing a script or storyboard, your input ensures we’re on the right track.

We’ll handle the research, ask the right questions, and keep production moving, so you can focus on your priorities.

1. Research

Before we get on a call, our team – including a PhD science writer with extensive experience in life sciences and biology – dives deep into your science. We spend hours researching your topic – your scientific and marketing material, as well as all the relevant research papers and articles online. This extensive research prepares us to have a meaningful discussion from the very first meeting.

2. Kick-off Call

After our thorough research, we meet with your key team members, like the CEO and CSO, to align on your vision and goals. With our deep background knowledge, we can ask the right questions and fully understand what you want to achieve.

3. Script

Using all the information from our research and kick-off call, our PhD science communicator crafts a compelling 2-minute story. The script is the backbone of the video, so we put a lot of effort into getting it just right. A strong script ensures everything else falls into place.

4. Storyboard

This is where the script turns into sketches and images. Our storyboarders have scientific background, so we can guarantee scientific accuracy. But we’ve also mastered the art of storytelling over 12 years, so we plan each frame carefully to make sure the story is clear and engaging.

5. Design

Our talented designers turn the storyboard into beautiful illustrations, using a distinct style for each project. They know how to represent your science in a way that's both precise and visually appealing.

6. Voice-over

We offer a selection of professional voice artists to choose from, steering clear of AI voices because only real humans can convey genuine emotions. The right voice-over adds life to your story and connects with your audience.

7. Animation & sound

Finally, our motion designers bring everything together, making sure the animation not only explains your science well, but is also is engaging and easy to follow. The result is a cohesive and captivating video.

8. Result

You’ll get a video that tells your story clearly and accurately, helping you communicate your groundbreaking work in a way that's easy to understand and exciting for your audience.

FAQ

Questions and answers

Here are the most common questions and concerns regarding explainer videos and the animation creation process.

If you have any other questions that are not listed, feel free to contact us directly!

Contact us

What is the price of an animation?

We adapt to our clients’ budgets, offering flexible options to suit your needs. For startups, sometimes all you need are 1-2 illustrations that capture the bigger picture or explain your mode of action. As your company grows, your animation needs may become more advanced. Prices depend on style (2D or 3D), length (30 seconds, 60 seconds, or 2 minutes are typical), and the complexity of the topic.

For example:

  • 2-minute 3D animations: €10,000–18,000 ($10,000–18,000)
  • High-end 2D animations: €10,000 ($10,000)
  • Start-up-friendly options: Starting at €5,000 ($5,000)

We can also create simple illustrations at lower rates. No matter your budget, we’ll find a solution that works for you.

How long does it take to produce an animation?

We can produce animations in as little as 4-6 weeks. However, we often rely on timely feedback from our clients. Delays in feedback can extend timelines to 10-15 weeks or more. We always prioritize your deadlines and aim to deliver on time, adapting to your schedule whenever possible.

When is the right time to invest in a science animation?

The best time is as early as possible. Don’t wait until you’re preparing for a funding round or meeting—it could be too late to maximize impact. Animations are powerful tools for raising funds, sparking interest, and building trust. Use them in email signatures, on social media, in email campaigns, and on your website to captivate your audience and clearly communicate your science.

Can you help with medical illustrations, pitch decks, and websites too?

Yes, we can! Our core strength is simplifying complex science and making it accessible to any audience. This skill extends beyond animations to pitch decks, websites, and other materials. We collaborate with trusted partners and freelancers to ensure quality. As we operate out of Poland, we can offer highly competitive pricing.

What makes your company unique?

<p>We are a family-run business where you work directly with the managing directors. Explaining science is not just our job—it’s our passion. We dive deep into your research to ensure we fully understand it before crafting animations that resonate with both experts and laypeople. Our team combines scientific expertise with clear, engaging storytelling. With over 12 years of experience and 400+ animations delivered, we work with some of Europe’s best motion designers, offering exceptional quality at affordable prices.</p>

How do you ensure the animation accurately reflects our science?

<p>Accuracy is at the heart of what we do. We start by thoroughly understanding your science through collaborative discussions and research. Our process includes multiple review stages—script, storyboard, and animation—where you provide feedback and approval. This ensures your animation is both scientifically accurate and engaging.</p>

What styles of animation do you offer?

<p>We specialize in both 2D and 3D animations.</p>
<ul>
<li><em>2D animations:</em> Ideal for clear and engaging storytelling, often used to explain processes or concepts.</li>
<li><em>3D animations:</em> Perfect for showcasing intricate details, such as molecular or cellular mechanisms.</li>
</ul>
<p>We also offer hybrid approaches, blending the best of both worlds.</p>

Can animations be used beyond investor presentations?

<p>Absolutely. Animations are versatile tools that can enhance social media campaigns, website content, trade show displays, email marketing, and training materials. A single animation can serve multiple purposes, maximizing its value and impact.</p>

Do we need to have a script ready before contacting you?

<p>No. You don’t need a script to get started. Our team specializes in crafting scripts that simplify complex science while keeping your audience engaged. We’ll guide you through the process, asking the right questions to create a narrative that fits your goals.</p>

What if we’re not sure what we want?

<p>No problem. Many clients come to us with just an idea or a challenge they want to address. We’ll help you explore your goals, brainstorm ideas, and recommend the best style and approach for your needs. Together, we’ll create an animation that delivers results.</p>

“Frank and the team at Life Science Animation created an animated video for CroBio demonstrating our innovative technology – including the background, process, and benefits of our water-retentive microbes. I felt confident that the LSA team not only understood our technology, but appreciated our vision, and knew precisely the artistic direction that I wanted the video to take.

There was also plenty of opportunity along the development process to offer my own input and make any changes that I wanted to make.”
