More Details
Your research is presented as a 2–3 minute high-definition animated video, developed by a PhD subject-matter expert, an animator, a voice artist and a video editor. The team writes the script, builds a storyboard, adds voice-over, music and captions, and animates your graphs and figures. You review the script and the storyboard before the video is produced. AI voice-over is included; human voice-over is available at an additional cost. The video can also be promoted on Enago Academy, YouTube, LinkedIn, SlideShare and Vimeo.
Video Abstract (3D) New
Key Features
- Fully 3D-modelled and animated scenes
- Choice of three visual directions: isometric, character-led or low-poly 3D
- Mood board, colour palette and full narration script approved before animation
- Shot-by-shot storyboard with AI voice-over (human voice-over at additional cost)
- Final captioned cut with background music
- Two rounds of consolidated feedback at every stage
More Details
Your research is turned into a 3D animated video in four stages. First, a subject-matter expert writes a synopsis that sets the narrative structure for your sign-off. Next, you receive a mood board with three visual directions (isometric, character-led or low-poly 3D) and a colour palette, together with the full narration script; both are approved before animation begins. The team then produces a shot-by-shot storyboard and generates the AI voice-over to the approved script (human voice-over is available at an additional cost). Finally, 3D artists model, light and animate every scene through to a final captioned cut. 3D is ideal for showing molecules, cells, devices, materials, anatomy and mechanisms in depth and motion.
Pricing: US$1,999 for the first minute and US$750 for each additional minute.
Graphical Abstract (2D)
Key Features
- Created by subject-matter experts and scientific illustrators
- Built from your concept sketch or directly from your manuscript
- Designed to your target journal’s guidelines
- High-resolution file and graphical abstract report
More Details
Publishers such as Elsevier, Springer, Nature, IOPscience and ACS ask for graphical abstracts. A subject-matter expert reads your manuscript and writes a synopsis of the key findings; illustrators sketch a prototype; designers finalise it in professional software; and the design is fine-tuned to your feedback and checked for font, text size, resolution, file type and colour. Revisions are offered until you are happy with the final design.
Graphical Abstract (3D) New
Key Features
- Key elements modelled and rendered in 3D
- Scientific accuracy checked by a subject-matter expert
- Rendered to your target journal’s size, resolution and format
- High-resolution renders plus report
More Details
A subject-matter expert reads your manuscript and writes a synopsis of the key findings. A 3D artist then models the central elements – such as molecules, cells, materials, devices or anatomical structures – and sets the lighting, materials and camera angle to tell the story clearly. The final scene is rendered and composed with minimal labels to meet your target journal’s guidelines. Two rounds of consolidated feedback are included.
- Scientific illustrations that combine beauty and scientific accuracy
- A streamlined process for subject-expert and author collaboration
- Figure legend or caption
More Details
We help you plan and create a scientific illustration that is both visually appealing and scientifically accurate, drawing on two experts: one in your scientific field and one in art and design. We also provide a 50–75-word legend, or a length you specify, describing the scientific illustration. Our subject-matter expert prepares an initial sketch based on the aim of your research. You can choose the illustration style you prefer, such as Line Art, 2D, or 3D. Our illustrator then uses advanced tools and harmonious, innovative colors to turn the sketch into an engaging scientific illustration. We also share a report outlining the work completed, along with the image resolution and format details.
- A professional, eye-catching illustration
- A 30–35-word impact statement summary, where required
More Details
We help you prepare cover art that complies with the journal’s guidelines. You can provide an initial sketch, which a subject-matter expert in your research area develops to suit your research topic. The artwork is created with advanced tools and attractive color combinations. You can also choose our X (Twitter)-shareable summaries service, which lets you share summaries of your research across social media platforms, or our submission assistance service, where an expert helps you submit the cover art to the journal. These services are available as paid add-ons to the core service.

Frequently Asked Questions
Although many researchers prefer to promote their manuscripts only after journal acceptance, we recommend starting Research Impact Services as soon as you receive initial acceptance and your manuscript enters production. This makes sure your promotional materials are ready in time for online publication.
We ask for the full text of your manuscript, along with any figures or tables, to help our experts understand your research. If you have already decided where your promotional materials will be published or where you will present your research, please share those details. If you have specific visual requirements (such as reference styles, design layouts, color combinations, or 2D or 3D graphics), please include them when you inquire about the service.
A graphical abstract usually depicts the overall outline of your research and its key points, with the aim of giving a concise summary of the study. Journal cover art, on the other hand, is designed as a stylistic artistic composition inspired by a single element of your research; its aim is an eye-catching image with a general connection to the research, not a comprehensive visual summary of it.
Certainly. We can provide translation support for an additional fee. Please send your requirements through the inquiry form to receive more details about fees and turnaround time, or email us at publish@enago.com.
Yes. All copyrights for the visual materials delivered to you are transferred to you upon delivery. If we use any purchased copyrighted elements, we will include the information needed to cite them correctly in the report. You may use these materials as you wish in the future, but please make sure the copyright stays with you and is not transferred to any other promotional sites.
We provide two rounds of minor revisions within 30 days of delivering your presentation/poster. If major revisions are required, additional fees may apply depending on the amount of work needed.
