Photoreal 3D Medical Animation Explainers

Over 2 decades of medical CGI animation work delivered for WebMD, Pixeldust Studios, the Cystic Fibrosis Foundation, Discovery, Curiosity Stream, PBS and National Geographic — including a long run of photoreal 3D explainers for WebMD, more than 150 of them at about a minute each.
Served as CG/VFX Supervisor and Lead Artist across these projects, working the pipeline end-to-end — from look development, lighting, and animation through final compositing and delivery.
Specialized in photoreal 3D animations that explain complex diseases, anatomical systems, surgical procedures, and pharmaceutical mechanisms in a way that's both medically accurate and visually clear for clinical, educational, and broadcast audiences.
The look I go for is a tiny camera moving inside the human body: lighting that keeps tissue fleshy and real, cinematic camera work through the cuts, and fluid, soft-body and particle simulation for procedures and reactions. 2D graphics, labels and titles sit over the 3D renders, timed to the voice narration.
Built on Unreal Engine 5 with RTX-accelerated real-time rendering & Cinema 4D — pipelines that compress traditional offline render timelines from weeks into days, without sacrificing the broadcast-grade visual quality that scientific and medical subjects demand.
With the traditional render farm out of the picture and shading, lighting and compositing handled in one place, 4K animations land at a high degree of photoreal complexity in record time.
Increasingly this runs as a hybrid AI integration pipeline, with generative tools folded into the CGI workflow for concept, reference, and base asset generation, while the anatomy, the mechanism, and the underlying data stay hand-built and verified.
Trusted by major networks and patient-facing health platforms to make the invisible visible.
