Overview
Project Title: ‘Megaloblastic Anaemia’ Animation
Project Sponsor: Dr. Sudhir Tauro, Senior Clinical
Lecturer in Undergraduate Medicine
TILT Medical Artist: Eve Laws
Megaloblastic anaemia is a difficult subject for students to understand. The complexity lies in why exactly the red blood cells are larger in size, but smaller in number. Dr Sudhir Tauro wished to expand upon a diagram of his and create an engaging piece of material that clarified to students exactly why the red blood cells in megaloblastic anaemia are larger than normal.
For animation work, a storyboard is essential in communicating ideas between the project sponsor and the medical artist. This allows for changes before the final animation is complete.
