Explain a Paper for researchers

A short film for researchers: a narrated, captioned film of your own paper, ready to share on YouTube, LinkedIn and your lab site; you read, edit and approve the script, and nothing is rendered until you do; evidence of public engagement for REF impact case studies, funder reports and promotion cases; every frame built, not generated; and the price of a single film or a pack of three.

Just published? Show people what you found. A short film of your paper reaches the public, funders, policymakers and colleagues in another discipline. Explain a Paper makes a short, narrated, captioned film of your own paper, ready to share on YouTube, LinkedIn and your lab site.

Upload the PDF and say who it is for. Your first draft is written in minutes. You read the script, edit it and approve it, and nothing is rendered until you do. A film is easy to share and easy to count: evidence of public engagement for REF impact case studies, funder reports, promotion cases and your own profile.

Every word in it is typeset, and every chart is plotted from your paper's own numbers, rather than painted by an image model, so nothing in it is made up. And it comes at a price a grant can cover: a single film is thirty-nine pounds, plus VAT, or ninety-nine for a pack of three, for a series of papers.
