About Moving Science

Moving Science offers scientific and medical animations and illustrations – as well as explainers and data-visualizations and infographics. Moving Science is founded by me, Ann-Louise Bergström, a biologist with a passion for drawing.

I am educated as a biologist (with PhD in neuroscience) and have worked as a researcher for many years. The research fiels, I have worked in are neuroscience, cell biology and protein chemistry, circadian biology, prion diseases and Parkinson’s disease. I resigned my position as a researcher in 2017 to focus full-time on scientific & medical animation and illustration.

My background in research is a good pre-requisite for me to help with scientific visual communication, as I am used to understand complex subjects.

What I offer

Scientific animations, illustrations and data-visualizations for:

  • Biology and life science
  • Technical sciences
  • Pharmaceutical research and development
  • Medicine and medico
  • Other scientific areas
  • Engineering

I can help you with:

  • Idea-generation and story-board
  • Building of 3D models or incorporation of existing 3D data (e.g. from 3D scans, PDB database etc.)
  • Drawing of 2D elements or import of figures that you already have
  • Vector-graphics (for logos, icons, simple graphics)
  • Data-visualizations of real-world data, either in 2D or 3D
  • Texturing, ligthing, background scene building
  • Animation of elements
  • Animation on top of real film or images
  • Addition of explanatory text
  • Rendering
  • Video-editing
  • Sound effects and/or music
  • Building of web-pages

 

Software, that I use:

I use Blender for 3D-graphics and animation, Python for scripting, Inkscape  for vector-graphics and Krita (as well as old-fashioned paper and pen) for free-hand drawing and painting. I create music with Garageband and design webpages with WordPress.  Sometimes I use Jmol for molecule visualization. I also have some knowledge of GIMP (photo editing). If you need me to work in some other software, I am always willing to learn something new!

Please feel free to contact me on mail (alb@movingscience.dk) or phone (+45 51609532) if you have an animation or illustration job you would like to discuss. Or connect with me on LinkedIn. You are also very welcome to visit my YouTube-channel. Please also contact me if you want good advice on how to start to work with animations yourself.
