Mitosis & the Midboy

Project Summary

This animation highlights the presence and role of the midbody within mitotic cell division. This animation also highlights the molecular impacts of UV radiation on the skin barrier when not properly protected with sunscreen. It does so by transitioning from a macro-view of a person having fun at the beach, to the damaged dermal cells within their skin barrier and then finally to mitotic division before returning back to the macro-view.

Goal

To create an engaging educational video showcasing the research of Dr. Ahna Skop as clearer visual introduction to the midbody’s structure during mitosis.

Intended Audience

General Public

Medium/Software Used

Adobe Illustrator, Cinema 4D Redshift, Adobe After Effects, Artlist.io, and Wondershare Filmora.
