Renewable oil and bioproducts company, Solazyme, sourced Neumatic to create an animated visualization of their ground breaking sugar to oil technology platform.

Emphasizing the hard science behind their tailored oil production process, we took a macro view inside the science of their biotechnology process, graphically depicting from the cellular level, the variety of applications that Solazyme’s technology is capable of reaching.

It was essential to show the way the oil inside the algae cell behaves. The organic process of oil droplets dividing and portraying the surface tension of oil to a realistic standard was our goal. The viewer sees the oil developing and multiplying inside the cell then the video zooms out to show the molecular structures of various products begin developed by Solazyme.
