(Impressive, but their hard-sell language sorta has the feel of  
lawyers with "ambulance" painted backwards on the hood of their car...)

View our Flight 1549 Hudson River plane crash reconstruction that is on
display at the LegalTech New York 2009 tradeshow - and find out how we  
did
it.

Our accurate reconstruction of the Hudson River plane crash which took  
place
on January 15, 2009 was on display at the LegalTech tradeshow from the  
2nd
to 4th February. Proving immensely popular, over 100 people asked us for
details of how we made it. The video is now available on YouTube,  
Vimeo -
and below.

The animation took 3 days to put together, and was quite complex due  
to the
limited amount of detailed official information about what happened  
and the
large number of buildings. Our animators took data about the flight path
from the New York Times, and further details related to timings,
environment, etc., from various other news sources and eyewitness  
reports.
The reconstruction contains digitized accurate models of the exact plane
involved in the crash, and the whole Manhattan skyline.
