It has been over half a century, with thousands of hours of research. Skeptics of the 35th presidents’ death surrounding the location of the shooter, number of shots taken, and number of ‘conspirators have caused much ‘debate’. John F Kennedy’s assassination led to various recreations as technology has changed since that fateful day of November 22nd, 1963.
On the anniversary of JFKs’ death in 2013, Joseph Stromberg wrote an article that included a 3D model created by Fyens Stiftstidende on the visual sharing website Sketchfab. The 3D scene plays out in the downtown Dallas landscape. Architecture, cars and timing having been recreated, for our assessment and understanding.
The 3D model allows us to gain a better perspective of the environment. It does this by highlighting Lee Harvey Oswald’s position in the School Book Depository, with a green line representing his line of site, jutting from the 6th floor of the building. The interactive experience labels the critical aspects of the event, marking the motorcade, the Grassy Noll, witnesses and JFK is represented in yellow.
The immersion from the story is enabled by the dedication of many people. The article, and map or layout included in the story by Smithsonian, gives us the information needed to accurately depict the area and aspects of that day. Otherwise, we might not fully comprehend the labeling and descriptions inside the 3D model.
Free moving, architecture and human models immerse the audience through meticulous measurement and research.
