"Such fun! Academic studies and science can sometimes come across as very dry and tedious given the rigor we have to apply. But these guys make us look good! Really enjoyed taking our work and simplifying it, so that anyone could engage. Needed effort, but worth it - and their process also makes that easy. If you're in science, and you want to communicate your ideas in a fun and effective way, then you should definitely check these guys out."

“I had the pleasure to work with the team for a scientific animation video and it was a wonderful experience. The process was seamless and I had a lot of fun working on this project. The final animation created by the team enhanced my idea and I had a lot of good comments on the final product. I would absolutely recommend working with Animate your science and I look forward to another project with them.”
