Project Overview
Civil War Battle Maps
Two large, motion graphics presentations outline the major battles of the Civil War before and after the Battle of Gettysburg.
Installed in two strategic locations inside the Gettysburg National Military Park Museum, these cinematic presentations provide context to the conflicts that preceded and followed the three days of battle at Gettysburg. The two five-minute movies map each army’s movements, victories, and losses from 1861 to 1865. Archival images of battles, landscapes, and notable persons are woven together with animated military infographics and voiceover narration to vividly depict the battle strategies and troop movements along a timeline of the war.
