Explain a Paper turns research papers, white papers and reports into short, narrated films, so the ideas reach people outside the field. It is for universities, companies, think tanks, charities and public bodies: anyone with work that deserves a wider audience. Every frame is built, not generated. In our film of Hubble's nineteen twenty-nine paper, every word is typeset, every diagram is drawn in code, and all twenty-four nebulae are plotted from his own table.
You approve every script, and nothing is rendered until you do. An agency explainer asks for five or six sign-offs. Here there are two: the script, and the film. Every film comes with captions and a transcript, so it works with the sound off.
The voice is synthetic, the script is drafted with AI assistance, and each one says so. We open for orders soon. Register interest at explainapaper.com, and we will tell you first. Or email us about a paper you would like explained.
