I was lucky enough to work with James on a graphic for my book. He did a fabulous job of turning the ideas into a set of visuals that explained the argument in straightforward terms. James was incredibly responsive and helpful, and he produced a fantastic graphic that matched the visual theme of the book. I couldn't be happier!

Michelle Jackson

Stanford University

Did an amazing job for our first poster and James was very accommodating as the poster "evolved" from concept to the a final design and flexible to handle some late breaking cosmetic changes in the final stages. Would recommend and use again!

Daljit Cheema

I had the pleasure of working with James and Tullio as I prepared for a poster presentation at an international conference. The experience was outstanding. They listened carefully to my subject, grasped the main ideas perfectly, and produced an eye catching and accurate display of my research. James was primarily responsible for the design of the poster. He was committed to creating a design that I loved - and he did. From the lay out, artistry, text, and color choices I could not have been more pleased. He captured my intent perfectly. The cost was very reasonable for the quality of work that was performed. James had fantastic recommendations for text, even though he is not part of my profession. I was extremely impressed. The poster was created swiftly and with no delays. I highly recommend this company if you want your poster to stand out from all the rest at your next science conference. They saved me so much time and stress. I definitely would use this company again.

Animate Your Science consistently delivers high-quality, engaging content that actually makes a difference for researchers. I have done the courses on Adobe Illustrator, designing award winning scientific posters, and using AI in research. All these courses introduced me to a range of tools I’d never even heard of - all of which helped me excel at my PhD. I highly recommend seeing what they can do for you!

Jaelen Myers

The team helped me figure out how to present the key highlights of a technical report that is otherwise a brick. I highly recommend them, as it's not only about nice graphics, but about conveying technical or scientific information (which tends to be a skill very few scientists have). They were also very accommodating to specific timelines and administrative requirements.

Carolina Garcia

I am happy to recommend this course to researchers and physicians who conduct research.

The “How to Design an Award-Winning Scientific Poster” course by Animate Your Science is an excellent way to prepare for creating a a scientific poster. Learn about design elements that will help you communicate your science in more engaging ways. And it does what it says on the tin since I followed the guidance of the course and won Best Student Poster Presentation at the 2025 Australasian Epidemiologic Association Annual Scientific Meeting. No more boring posters!

Kelly Hall

The University of South Australia

I followed the course 'How to Design an Award-winning Scientific Poster' given by Tullio. I highly recommend this course by Animate Your Science! :)
The content was very well explained, going from how to begin designing your poster and what elements it should contain, to using the right color palette. After designing our own poster using this background, we also had a very useful feedback session afterwards, which helped improve our first design even more!
If you are looking for a way to improve your poster for your next conference, this is the place to be!

Miguel has such a gentle and clearly spoken way of teaching. He makes great use of prompts and popups to visually help you navigate Adobe Illustrator, and gives great demonstrations for real-world applications to make artwork for posters, presentations and graphical abstracts.

 

Miguel's workshop is a great springboard for beginners to discover the potential of Adobe Illustrator.

Adrian Abdo

The University of Adelaide

This course was easy to follow and perfect for beginners and intermediate Adobe users. The initial tutorials help beginners to quickly gain the skillset necessary for intermediate activities. Tutorials are relevant for the types of schematics people in science will create for presentations, posters, and publications.

Serena Barnes

The University of South Australia

This course was very comprehensive and massively improved my Illustrator skills. I loved that there were exercises that I could follow alongside myself and I created figures that I didn't think I could ever be able to create.

 

I now feel set up to go on and make some real nice figures for my future publications and posters.

Ashlyn Austin

The University of South Australia

The work of scientists gets less recognition as it is often not understood. Most of the time because people are more easily convinced by images, pictures and graphics than words. To bring changes and solutions, it is important for the general public to understand the importance of our work and this can only happen if we are successful in communicating our research. Animate Your Science’s course is very useful as it helps scientists bridge this gap.

Bhavnah Komul Kalidin

I have always wanted to learn to draw in Adobe Illustrator, I learnt more than I expected in the completion of this course and would highly recommend to anyone wishing to learn invaluable skills. 5 Star Rating in my eyes!

Kathleen Vowles

James Cook University

I enjoyed the course so much, and it really opened my eyes to the kinds of figures I could make to make my science "pop"! I've made some examples of figures I've made in Illustrator, that I will be including on some upcoming posters, and I even made my first graphical abstract. I am excited to keep getting creative and seeing what I can make, and I would recommend the poster and Illustrator courses to anyone trying to make a mark in academia!

Myat Myat Thein

The University of Adelaide

We as a researcher's are shy and probably think that we are not skilled enough to make a video and spread a message as we think our knowledge is not enough to prove the concept of the message we want to deliver. However, the world is changing and with people with less knowledge spreading wrong message by using digital media has started to make chaos and confused audience for a while. I hope most researcher understand the urgency and make effort to learn visual storytelling for greater mutual benefit.

Sumeena Karki

The University of Adelaide

The course is very useful and easy to go through in your free time yet it can create a great impact if you care about your research should reach to common people in easy and effectfull manner.
