Breakthrough T1D
explainer animations that bring clarity to complex health topics
Client
Breakthrough T1D (formerly JDRF) is a global nonprofit accelerating research to cure, treat and prevent type 1 diabetes. Together with agency Patchbay Media, I created a series of explainer animations to clarify topics like clinical trials and screening — and why they matter.
Project
For topics like medical research, clarity is everything.
The challenge: making complex, technical information feel accessible, engaging and human — by explaining subjects like the importance of clinical trials and screening in a series of clear branded explainer animations.
Visual clarity with a human touch
For Breakthrough T1D, I created a clean and friendly visual language for a series of animated explainer videos, helping potential volunteers quickly understand topics like clinical trials and screening across languages, cultures and platforms.
By combining clear design with fluid motion, the animations make complex information easy to grasp while staying true to Breakthrough T1D’s brand.
Explaining with character
Animated characters are a powerful part of explainer animation, adding warmth and personality to complex topics like healthcare. They make abstract subjects easier to understand by turning information into relatable, human stories.
Without the need for on-location filming, animated characters offer a flexible and efficient way to create emotional connection while keeping explainer animation production clear and scalable.
