Hello! My name is Yuriy, I'm a medical animator from Ukraine and with your help I want to create the most detailed animation of cancer genesis and development ever made.

Small tumor - frame from animation

Why cancer animation?

Why cancer animation? I think this is the most sophisticated and dangerous disease in the whole of human history and everyone should know what can cause cancer and how its further development occurs.

Cancer cell mitosis - a frame from animation

Unfortunately there is no detailed animation of the whole process of cancer development - from DNA mutation to metastasis. That’s why I am going to start at the molecular level and we will see how the first cancer cell occurs, how the tumour grows and becomes malignant and why metastasis can affect healthy organs.

Melanoma genesis - a frame from animation

I have already started working on this project and have around 2 minutes of animation, but with your help I can complete the video a lot faster and make it a lot more detailed.

The video will be in two languages: English and Russian full voiceovers. 

Обязательно будет версия с русскоязычной озвучкой и внутренними комментариями!

DNA mutation caused by UV radiation - a frame from the animation

My animation studio Nanobotmodels (http://www.nanobotmodels.com) was established in 2007. We are generates imaginative and engaging state-of-the-art medicine and molecular biology illustrations and animations. 

Nanobotmodels have already got the first brick in the wall of educational animations - we have just finished full-CG story about prion disease. We used the most sophisticated and modern software to model the actual shape of the prion inner structure. We used RCSB Protein Data Bank to make it scientifically correct.

What We Need & What You Get

I plan to make this educational animation within a 5-months timeframe and with your help this summer we will have more than 10 minutes of full CG animation explaining the nature of cancer.  

As I have said, we have already completed a successful project - prion education animation. I wish to develop this start-up by covering the most interesting and complex molecular diseases.

                                                Animation timeline roadmap

18000 USD - is it a big deal for 10 minutes or not? Folks, involved in creating scientific CG will say - nope! 

All funds will go to:

  • research background and storyline (10%), 
  • buying render farm time (40%), 
  • animator and designer payments (30%), 
  • composition, post-effect development and voiceover (15%).
  • IndieGoGo fee (hope it will be 4%!)

Human papillomavirus can damage health DNA and cause sarcoma - frame from animation 

And after all that I’ll share this educational video totally free in a full HD quality. All baсkers and any student or any other person can download it for free and use it for educational purposes.

Even if I don’t reach the entire goal, the cancer animation will happen anyway, but it will be shorter and production time will be longer.

Molecular biology and medicine education series

Cancer cell pathology development- frame from animation

I hope that educational impact of this project will be great due to the free access to this animation. Any person will be able to access this animation in full HD and use it in a hospital, at a university, at home - anywhere!

Another plan I have is to create an educational interactive textbook which will contain 3D models with video and illustrations from this project.

Ways You Can Help

Back my campaign!

By backing our campaign you’re telling us that you’re interesting about this project and you’ll help us get closer to see cancer animation and bring it for free to another people. 

Share my campaign!

It may seem like a small thing, but sharing our campaign on Facebook, Twitter, g+, LinkedIn etc, will allow us to see the response of our intended audience and hopefully get us closer to getting the project funded.

The more people know about it, the more feedback we get and the better cancer education animation will be.

Sincerely, Yuriy Svidinenko (tinraaa@gmail.com).
