Pixar-Style 3D AI Animation for Lateral Knee Pain Education
Created a cinematic Pixar-style 3D AI animation explaining lateral knee pain, including its common causes, symptoms, diagnosis, treatment options, and rehabilitation. The video simplifies complex knee anatomy into engaging visual storytelling, helping healthcare brands, physiotherapy clinics, and educational platforms communicate medical concepts through high-quality AI-generated animations.
Challenge
The client wanted to educate viewers about the causes of pain on the outer side of the knee, such as iliotibial (IT) band syndrome and overuse injuries, in a way that was both medically accurate and visually engaging. The objective was to improve audience understanding while maintaining high engagement across social media and educational platforms.
Solution
Developed a Pixar-style AI animation featuring detailed 3D anatomical visuals, cinematic motion graphics, and educational storytelling to explain the biomechanics of lateral knee pain, contributing factors, rehabilitation exercises, and preventive strategies. Combined AI-powered animation with professional editing to create an engaging healthcare education video that simplifies complex orthopedic concepts.

I built a simple workflow for creating consistent AI characters while saving time, money, and generations.
Watch the finished video:

I start by creating a character in Midjourney, then refine it in Nano Banana and create a character sheet with different poses and angles.
The key step is using that character sheet together with the visual style and environment from my original Midjourney image. Instead of generating each shot individually, I ask Nano Banana to build a 3x3 grid containing nine different shots of the same character within the same environment. With a detailed prompt, I can define the framing, composition, and action for all nine shots in a single generation.
I can then extract the individual frames from the grid simply by asking Nano Banana to separate them. Finally, I use the most suitable frames as starting frames in tools like Kling or Veo to animate the shots and build the final sequence.
The idea is simple: instead of generating 150 images and throwing most of them away, I create a visual system first and generate multiple usable shots at once. It saves generations, reduces costs, and gives me much more consistency and control over the final video.
Title: FOLLOWER OF
FOLLOWER OF wakes a painting nobody signed. "Christ's Descent into Hell" (The Met, 26.244) is by an anonymous follower of Hieronymus Bosch, sold as a Bosch in Prague in 1926 and still unattributed. I chose it because I love Bosch, and because a painting by a follower asks the question the whole panel is about: who follows whom.
For a hundred seconds the painting comes to life without ever leaving the surface of the paint. A lantern wakes it. Light breaks the gate of hell. Adam and Eve beg with empty hands, the saved climb the stairs, Saint Christopher slips away from the devil's army with the child on his shoulders, Judas will not let go of the bag, Sisyphus keeps climbing, and the ones who stay behind keep living by the giant head. The ending comes from the Met's own technical notes: the blue corner of the sky was painted over fire. The painter changed his mind.
Every shot starts from a crop of the Met's open access image: no new figures, no new colors, only what the painter left. Each crop was upscaled with Magnific Precision Upscaler, animated with Kling 3.0 Pro, with prompts refined by Claude Opus 5 inside FLORA. The narration is Gemini TTS, the score is ElevenLabs Music: a sixteenth century Franco-Flemish consort reimagined for a painting of hell. The whole pipeline ran from Claude Code on the desktop through FLORA's MCP: the agent built the graph, ran the models and kept the production ledger, and every creative decision stayed with me. Structure, shot list and sound design follow a kishotenketsu: the turn is not a fight, it is a painter changing his mind.
Christ's Descent into Hell, Follower of Hieronymus Bosch (Netherlandish, second quarter of the 16th century). Oil on two oak planks, 53.3 x 116.8 cm. The Met, Harris Brisbane Dick Fund, 1926 (26.244), on view in Gallery 613. A panoramic hell where Christ breaks the gate to free the just: Adam and Eve, Noah, Abraham, David and the patriarchs climb a ruined tower, Sisyphus heaves his stone up the rock on the right, and Judas is dragged back. Paint analysis shows the orange of the burning sky continuing under the blue in the upper left corner: more of the sky was originally on fire. Public Domain, Open Access.

🎬 Korean War — Documentary Editing Test
I created this short documentary-style edit as a creative test, using the provided narration and script as the foundation.
I wanted to go beyond simply placing images over a voiceover, so I built the sequence around motion graphics, animated maps, archival-style visuals, 2.5D parallax, camera movements, transitions, typography, and sound design.
The goal was to make the visuals constantly support the narration and keep the story moving without making the edit feel overloaded.
I created the visuals, animated the maps and images, added the transitions and effects, and designed the sound layers to give the piece more depth and tension.
This was a great exercise in combining AI-assisted visuals with documentary editing and motion design.
More experiments like this coming soon.
