For patients with heart conditions that can cause their heart rate to slow down, a pacemaker can deliver a pulse of energy to trigger the heart to beat normally. A pacemaker is a small implanted electrical device that monitors heart rate and sends an electrical impulse when the heart rate falls below a certain pace. This animation covers the parts of a pacemaker and their function, as well as what to expect before, during, and after surgery.
The animation was developed with fellow medical animator Man-San Ma, who provided the script, storyboard, audio, and 3D body and animated heart model. I modeled and textured the 3D pacemaker model, and animated and composited all of the shots the include the pacemaker model.
