Motion Designer & Video Editor - intern / apprentice

Neoplants is a biotech start-up founded by Lionel (Ex Google) and Patrick (PhD Genetic Editing, ENS), working on the first generation of bio-engineered plants to fight air pollution.

We create plants capable of effectively remediate these compounds in your home (up to 30 times more effective than traditional plants).
