I will create molecular dynamics animation for biologists from structural data


About this gig
I build molecular animations straight from your coordinate data PDB, mmCIF, AlphaFold models, or a full MD trajectory (.xtc/.dcd/.trr).
- Every atom you see on screen sits where your data puts it. (unless you ask for a fake VFX)
- Not AI-generated video!
That matters when the video goes into a paper, a grant figure, a conference talk, or a reviewer's inbox.
WHO THIS IS FOR
Structural biologists, PIs or anyone who need a mechanism explained to people who do not read RMSD plots.
WHAT I ACCEPT
- Structure: Such as .pdb, .cif/.mmcif, .mol2, .pse, or just a PDB ID.
- Trajectory: Such as .xtc, .trr, .dcd, .gro + topology (.top/.prmtop/.psf), or a series of PDB frames.
- Anything else: send it and I will tell you if I can read it.
WHAT YOU GET
1080p (4K optional) H.264 MP4/MKV at 24 fps.
BEFORE ORDERING
- Message me before ordering with your structure file (or PDB ID) and describe what the viewer should understand at the end. I will tell you which package fits and whether I need a custom offer.
- Animation is silent by default; I can add a track you supply or a royalty-free one if you ask, but audio is not my work.

FAQ
Is any of this AI-generated?
No. No text-to-video, no generative fill, no AI "interpretation" of your molecule. Every frame is rendered from your coordinate file or trajectory, unless you ask for an AI-generated BGM or fake VFX while some data is missing (membrane, solvent, folding).
What files do you need from me?
A structure file: .pdb, .cif, .mmcif, .sdf, .mol2, .mae, .pse, AlphaFold model, or cryo-EM map; a PDB ID is fine. For motion: .xtc/.trr/.dcd or .gro + topology. Large files: send a cloud link.
I only have a static structure and no simulation. Can you still show movement?
Yes, within honest limits. Options: camera-driven exploration of the real structure, a morph between two experimental states (apo/holo, open/closed), or — in the Premium package — procedural VFX for processes no single structure captures.
Is my data safe?
Yes. My Public Data & Confidentiality Statement (PDF) applies automatically. Files are never uploaded. Customer data: permanent confidentiality, kept 365 days, then deleted. Production files (.blend, private code) are never delivered, deleted at 365 days; $50/year extension if requested in time.
Can you show a lipid bilayer, endocytosis, or protein folding if I have no data for those?
Yes — that is exactly what the Premium package's atomic-level VFX is for. I build the membrane, solvent, and motion procedurally, and mark those shots as schematic in the handover document.
Do you write the script?
I write the director's script, the shot list, and the storyboard — the visual argument of the film. I do not provide voice-over recording.
Do you create music?
No — I am not a musician. Delivered animation is silent by default. On request I can add BGM you own and supply, a royalty-free track, or one from an open music model, but music is outside my scope and its quality is not a criterion for judging my work.
Can I use this in a publication, a grant, or a conference?
Yes, with no extra license fee and no watermark. You own the delivered renders. I only ask for credit where practical and permission before showing your structure — which the free 365-day portfolio hold covers.
Do you run molecular dynamics simulations?
Not in this gig — this is a visualization service, and I keep it honest: I animate the data you already have. If you need the simulation itself, message me and I will scope it as a separate custom offer.
What counts as a revision?
Changing a color, a label, a camera speed, a highlight, or a scientific detail inside an approved shot. Rebuilding a shot with a new mechanism, adding molecules, or extending runtime is a scope change and is quoted as an extra.

Shiki was an absolute joy to work with! Communication with her was very smooth and she worked extremely fast to get me the draft and revisions. She's also an exceptional artist that brought my terrible sketches to life. Thanks again Shiki! I'll definitely be back in the future to give you more work!
