3D Medical Device Informational Video

St. Jude Medical

With the development of new lead-less implantable pacemaker technology, St. Jude Medical needed a way to help doctors talk to their patients about the features and benefits of their new leadless pacemaker. The style was intentionally textbook to help make the information easier to understand. This video was developed for the European launch of the product (hence the size comparison to a 1 Euro coin).

To facilitate production, I developed project scope, and estimate and developed a scope of work document for approval. I hired a producer and editor, and I created all the animations and motion graphics in the video, consulting with the medical illustrators at St. Jude to ensure accuracy.

Brands Reel

Hyatt

As part of Hyatt’s marketing strategy to elevate awareness of its daughter brands, I worked with the Events Marketing and Branding teams at Hyatt to develop this video loop.

It was designed to play within their tradesohw exhibit on a specially designed ‘Brand Beacon” tower, 16 ft tall, using 3 stacked 16x9 displays on each of its 3 sides.

Because dwell time is very short in a trade show environment, the daughter brands are displayed in quick succession, enabling viewers to appreciate the wide array of hotel brands available.

NOTE: scroll down and click the ‘full screen’ button to see the full video display.
