We’re excited to kick off the second season of our partnership with NBC Sports this fall! As part of this partnership, custom versions of our OrthoIllustrated patient-education animations will be shown during Thursday Night and Sunday Night Football game broadcasts throughout the season. Tune into the Thursday, September 7 Kansas City Chiefs vs. New England Patriots game to catch the first animation planned to air to help educate viewers about an Achilles tear, a common injury.
Last year, our talented Medical Visualization team tackled creating 10 custom animations and this year, we’re upping the game to provide even more animations for NBC Sports to have ready to air as needed on various sports injuries.
Medical 3D Animator Codell Walker shared about working on the project, “It has been amazing to be a part of this team and very rewarding to see our hard work being broadcasted on national TV. I am a big football fan, so it’s very exciting to take what I do every day as an artist and be able to create animations that help educate regular armchair quarterbacks on common injuries in the NFL."
