Another great example of Blender art! A very interesting animation used for scientific purposes, created for a company called Sigma Aldrich. The animation is about a process called Molecular Self-assembly.
Blender was used to create almost everything for the animation, along with Blender some stock photos and a tool called Ball View was used, to create the rotating proteins. If you want to check out this animation, visit this link. And click on the button that says “View the full presentation Molecular Self-Assemblyâ€.

Cool video. :)
Looks nice :)
Just 1 small question: Is that the Toon Shader? (Noob question: Untill now I only used the standard one)
I'll have to do some presentations for physics and chemistry in the near future, and blender might be very usefull there ;)
I used a standard material shader for the animation. Most of the lighting was done using an area light parented to a dupliverted icosphere. This give a kind of simulated global illumination with soft lighting.
I have been using blender for scientific graphics for around 7years or more.
Very interesting! As I recall from grad school, Sigma Aldrich is one of the largest chemical supply companies in the US. At least when we needed to buy reagents it was usually from Sigma.
Hmm, wish I could see it. plugin appears to be unsupported in firefox on a mac.
Very nice.
C60, mabey one of your video players could play the downloaded file. http://www.chemblogs.com/sial_video/selfassembly.wmv
The only terrible thing is the video being played on a proprietary format, ( WMV ). It's not acessible for some of the Linuxers that does not mix their systems with proprietary stuff.
I am working to get a copy of this and another video that I made for my own company (Asemblon) up on either the company website or on my personal website. Sigma required me to use WMV which I was not happy about. I'll try to get it posted as a quicktime and or DivX file.
@C60: download Flip4Mac to play Windows WMV files: http://www.flip4mac.com/ Works great for me!
From the image, I was expecting more cells and less atomic balls :)
It's nice though.
Very cool. I'm currently studying nanotechnology, and I knew Blender could do scientific animations but this one is better than I expected. I'll have to recommend using Blender for class.
Cool vid. What is the better format to allowing playing of web movies on a Linux box on a website? Or a Mac for that matter.
Hey guys, be honest and dont say you are looking such clip for the first time!
The video is very poor!!!
I was studying chemistry and biology a couple of years ago.
Almost every student at the last in the 4th semester does make a clip much much better than this!!
I could show you a dozend simulations that look much much better!
elite2864. Please do show your work and the work of all those students who have produced such nice videos.
I think this is the wrong place!
All were made with MAYA !!
;-)
VLC worked fine once I grabbed the download file. Just didn't see a direct link to the file. Thanks Bart
Well, elite2864, don't just feed us bullshit, show your work, give a link to those marvelous animations.
The animation was cool.It really interest me a lot more especially the animation that is all about a process called Molecular Self-assembly.
