Hi, I'm Geoff Bolen and this is my solo biomedical animation studio.

Animating things cameras can't reach, or rarely get to, is the job I never tire of. I'm freest and most imaginative at the molecular and cellular: proteins doing what comes natural, cells under stress, stuff that can only be artistic interpretation. Underneath it all is real data and mechanics, right down to the details a domain expert would notice. Other times I'm taken by the value of depicting the surgical anatomy and instruments we actually see and touch. And these of course set the scene for the micro, nano, pico worlds I get to imagine... it's a virtuous loop.

I got here through a series of loops. In high school I worked at a video store and a medical supply company. Later on it was DNA synthesis and yeast genomics labs, followed by a long corridor of media, film and animation production. Now biomedical animation. Back and forth. I suppose it's more of a convergence at this point. At the moment, I'm relearning the joy of swimming in the sea here in Southwest Florida. The warm bath where life began.

Check out the case studies, and the blog posts on how I make this stuff. More on the way.
