about

Medical Visuals produces medical scientific visualizations mainly distinguished by a clear, concise style. The strength of Medical Visuals is to translate complex issues onto a communicative and accessible image, without doing violence to reality.

Additionally Medical Visuals is distinctive in customer focus, short term delivery, experience and several digital techniques. Depending on the contract and the nature of the information we work with various styles that result in Graphic Illustrations, Graphic Plastic images & 3D visuals and 3D animations.

The clients include the Dutch Journal of Medicine, the Dutch College of General Practitioners, Quest Magazine, many Universities and Hospitals, the Academic Centre of Dentistry, Veterinary Institutions, different Educational Publishers and brain researcher and neurologist Dick Swaab.

The driving force behind Medical Visuals is Medical & Scientific visualizer Maartje Kunen. She graduated Cum Laude from the Post Graduated Course in Scientific Illustration: part of the Academy of Fine Arts and the Faculty of Medicine of Maastricht University. Her fascination for biomedical subject matter results that she is always alert to new developments in this field.

In addition, she also worked as a freelance Medical & Scientific visualizer. From 2008 until now she works as a full time Medical & Scientific visualizer in her own company.

3D Animations | Medical and scientific 3D animations are a growing demand in digital communication. Motion attracts attention. Especially in biomedical subjects animation is complementary in the understanding of complex matter. The 3D visuals and 3D animations are made in Cinema4D. The editing and additional voice over are created in Adobe premiere. The animation job is always started by creating a storyboard following the text briefing. This is the most important phase because there are a million ways to animate a story. Modeling and animating are very time consuming. Sticking to the budget means that the accorded storyboard is leading when starting the animation phase.
