We are looking for an experienced animator or motion graphics designer to create three short scientific explainer videos (60–90 seconds each) about microbiome research, DNA sequencing and soil biology.
Our company works with microbiome sequencing, bioinformatics and statistical analysis for research institutions, agricultural projects and biotech companies.
About us
We are a growing biotech startup based in Denmark working with microbiome sequencing, bioinformatics and data analysis.
Our goal is to make complex microbiome science accessible to researchers, agricultural projects and biotech companies.
We plan to produce more scientific communication material in the future, so this project may lead to additional collaboration.
Explainer videos
The purpose of the videos is to explain complex scientific topics in a clear, professional and visually engaging way.
The videos will be used on our website, presentations and marketing material.
Videos to produce
Video 1 – From Sample to Insight
Explains the full microbiome analysis workflow:
• study design support
• sampling and logistics
• DNA/RNA extraction
• sequencing technologies
• bioinformatics processing
• statistical analysis
• scientific reporting and interpretation
Audience: research teams and project partners.
Video 2 – Why Monitor the Soil Microbiome
Explains how microbiome analysis helps understand:
• soil biodiversity
• microbial functions
• beneficial microbes and pathogens
• soil health and resilience
• agricultural performance
Audience: agriculture researchers, advisors and ag-biotech companies.
Video 3 – Validating Biofertilizers and Seed Coatings with Genomics
Explains how genomic technologies can be used to analyze:
• microbial strains used in products
• functional genetic potential
• microbial interactions in soil
• product validation and field trials
Audience: biostimulant companies, biofertilizer developers and ag-biotech.
Style requirements
Animation style should be:
• clean scientific motion graphics
• minimalistic and professional
• modern biotech visual style
We prefer visuals similar to scientific explainers used in biotech or research communication.
Please avoid:
• whiteboard animation
• stock footage
• generic farm stock visuals
• cartoon-style microbes.
Visual elements may include:
• DNA / sequencing animations
• microbial ecosystems
• soil microbiome visuals
• data visualisation and scientific plots.
Deliverables
Three animated videos.
Each video should include:
• 60–90 seconds duration
• professional animation
• transitions and motion graphics
• background music
• professional voice-over (British or American accent)
Resolution:
• 1080p
Final files should be delivered in a format suitable for website and presentation use.
What we provide
We will provide:
• script for each video
• storyboard describing scenes and visuals.
The three videos share several visual elements (DNA, microbes, sequencing and data analysis), so animation components can be reused across videos.
Requirements
Applicants should ideally have experience with:
• scientific or biotech animations
• explainer videos
• motion graphics for technical topics.
Please include in your application:
• examples of similar work (preferably scientific or biotech animations)
• estimated timeline
• fixed price quote for the full project.
Timeline
Preferred timeline:
Production completed within 2–4 weeks after project start.
Budget: $2,000 – $3,000 depending on portfolio.
