Benjamin Colvin

Biomedical Illustrator and Animator

Hi, I’m Ben

I’ll let you in on a little secret: science is complicated. As a medical illustrator and animator I transform complexity into a clear visual narrative.

With 2,000+ hours of biomedical research experience, I can engage with and understand science and medicine at an intricate level. As a professional member of the Association of Medical Illustrators with a master’s degree in biomedical visualization, I am well versed in multimedia learning theory, and as a professional artist I possess an array of technical and creative competencies for 2D and 3D visualization and design.

“Ben was a pleasure to work with. He came up with his own creative ideas to condense our complex scientific concept into a 1:30 min short animation. The result was of professional studio quality and can best be described in one word: stunning.”

-Marcus E. Peter, Tomas D. Spies Professor of Cancer Metabolism, Northwestern University

“You guys created a great teaching tool that I look forward to using in my class and posting in my web site! The teaching material perfectly captured the information I was trying to convey, and on the first draft!”
