"Type 2 Diabetes" is the fourth and longest episode of the e-learning film series created for São José do Rio Preto's Science and Technology Academy. This episode shows the inner molecular mechanics of this common disease.
Initiated in 2009, the series counts with over 250 thousand views on youtube (up until October 2011), collects hundreds of positive feedbacks and inspires dozens of similar efforts throughout the internet.
The amazing reception these films achieve among health students and professionals alike proves our hypothesis that to understand complex and highly abstract processes, no other animation technique offers the range of meaningful metaphors that cartoon animation does. |
