Role

Background

At Bio-Works Technologies, we set to make the best explainer video animation to introduce our great product portfolio— next generation chromatography resins called WorkBeads. This is how we went about it.

Goals

1

Making technical information digestable for everyone

The explainer animation has to speak not only to the biotech experts, but to anyone interested in understanding what WorkBeads are.

2

Ensuring facts remain concise and relevant

The challenge is to keep the duration of the video under 1 minute. This required us to collaborate internally with every department to understand and address every stakeholders's potential concerns without them having to articulate it.

3

Creating a feel-good animation

A pattern we observed early on in the research stage was that most pharma-related content seems to create a sense of urgency and danger in the viewer. We decided to take a different approach and implement tactical details to ensure that our audience leaves their first viewing feeling good about our product.

Solutions

1

Talking to least technical person

In understanding that the video needs to effectively communicate to every viewer, we quickly realized that we can not get too technical. Once our ICP research stage was completed, we rewrote the script in a way to be easily digestable by the most junior, non-technical person that might be interested in watching it.

2

Optimizing for retention

Our approach to keeping the content relavant was to steer clear of mentioning facts that we can not fully address in 1 minute. We decided that it was okay if our audience was left with unanswered questions. It was, however, not okay to be left with doubts about facts presented in the video. As a result, we optimized every constituting element to ensure that content complexity will not hurt comprehension.

3

Avoiding provocative scenes and negative imagery

This video is the origin story of a product. Our aim was never to make a sales pitch video.We designed the scenes to be dynamic with rich saturated colors and colder tones. Camera movements are playful and not robotic. This not only helps retention, but also creates an uplifting field of energy that leaves the viewer feeling unalarmed after watching it.

Conclusion

The end result was a visual journey that delved deep into the wonders of red algae and its pivotal role in our product. With clear visuals and a focused target audience, we made a complex topic understandable, highlighting our innovative approach and dedication to clear communication.
