SPERM VISUALIZER
Animation created by filming the actual sperm

“SPERM VISUALIZER” is a film and website created for Space Shower TV’s “Music Saves Tomorrow” campaign. We visualized the concept by having real sperm cells (“the seeds of tomorrow”) dance to the music.

 We actually filmed the sperm belonging to all of the male staff members using a biological microscope, then extracted their shapes and motion data to create the animation. On the website, users may choose their favorite tracks from VIMEO and the sperm will dance along to them.
