I made an animated video for the Biotechnology Center and DNA Sequencing Facility at UW Madison. They run some great educational programs, and had found that many people thought the idea of there being DNA in their food was disturbing. In order to explain how there is DNA in essentially everything derived from plants or animals (or any life), we made this video together. I wrote the script under the direction of Cheryl Redman and Joshua Hyman, who were a pleasure to work with. I drew all the images in Adobe Illustrator and then animated it Adobe After Effects.
