iGEM Video Examples (2009-2019)

On this page you will find examples on: Project Videos, Team Videos / Parodies , Introduction Videos and Educational Videos.

Year to year iGEM teams have been impressing us with their videos! This page is a collection of some of the videos made from 2009 to 2019. These are just a few past examples found on social media and can serve as an inspiration to future teams. If your video is missing from this page, please let us know at video AT igem DOT org. We will be working on updating this list with videos from other platforms as well as iGEM wikis. Enjoy!

Project Videos

Similar to the Project Promotion Video deliverable in 2021, these videos are pitches of various iGEM projects. They summarize the work the team is doing, the problem they want to solve, and its impact. They are often also an introduction to iGEM and Synthetic Biology, used for outreach in local communities and the team's crowdfunding.

Team Videos / Parodies

Every year, iGEM teams submit team videos. They are often parodies of music, tv, movies. If you are in iGEM - you have probably seen most of these videos at some point! We also show them at the Giant Jamboree Closing Ceremony.

Introduction Videos

Meet the team, their university, lab, and more.

Educational Videos

iGEM Teams have created tons of resources for future and current teams, as well as for public education purposes. Often they are in the form of videos and these are just some of the examples.
