Explaining Biotech Isn’t Easy—Until You Try This

Imagine you’re explaining your groundbreaking biotech innovation to an investor. You’ve spent years on the science, run all the experiments, and crafted the perfect pitch.

But when the moment comes… they stare back, confused. No funding. No follow-up. Just silence.

That’s where a science communication video comes in.

To show how much clarity matters, we created a video starring my 6-year-old son—as the investor.

A Science Communication Video Featuring a 6-Year-Old

We wanted to make the lesson simple and fun. So we staged a scene many biotech founders can relate to:

  • I played the founder pitching a complex idea

  • My son sat behind a desk as the investor

  • I explained the science—with passion, slides, and jargon

  • He stared blankly, shook his head, and shut his imaginary “investor drawer”

Four weeks later, I returned—with a short explainer video.

He watched, smiled and understood.
And then… he opened the drawer and handed me a pretend check for $20 million.

Why Science Videos Help Investors Understand

This playful experiment was fun—but it reflects a serious truth. Most biotech companies only get one shot to make their science clear. And if it doesn’t click, opportunities vanish.

That’s where a science communication video makes all the difference. A good one:

  • Simplifies complex ideas so anyone can grasp the potential

  • Saves time and energy—no more long, repetitive explanations

  • Sparks excitement—it makes people lean in, not tune out

Want to see what this looks like in practice? Here’s a video we made for Myomar that helps explain muscle regeneration in just 60 seconds.

The Power of Science Storytelling in Biotech

People don’t remember raw data—they remember stories.
And our video worked because it followed a story arc:

  • Struggle: The founder tries to explain, but fails

  • Agitation: The investor doesn’t understand and walks away

  • Solution: A video makes it clear and wins the deal

This is exactly how we build every science communication video at Life Science Animation: with clarity, empathy, and narrative flow.

Let’s Make Your Science Communication Video Stand Out

When we shared the video on LinkedIn, it struck a chord. People laughed. They related. And most importantly, they got the message:

➡️ A great science video doesn’t just explain—it connects.
