Trial Presentations
Lake Area Legal has done many trial presentations over the years and know exactly what you need to win the case.
To put together a good trial presentation, a combination of many disciplines is required. That takes a highly dedicated and experienced multimedia designer. From animation to web design, everything is put together in an organized and informative manner that is easy to understand by all. Presentations are truly the best way to present your case.
Any presentation can be customized to your needs. Whether you need it live, interactive, online or a combination of the three, we have you covered. With a number of presentation software packages available, we choose the best one to present your specific case.
Our firm can provide a professional to help you present the presentation in court. These professionals are highly skilled with all equipment, hardware and software needed for any project. If assistance is not needed, Lake Area Legal can provide all necessary equipment and training for any trial presentation.
Animations
Lake Area Legal can create compelling and comprehensive animations to incorporate into any trial presentation. With over 10 years of extensive 2d & 3d animation experience, we have seen just about everything that can happen and assure you that almost anything is possible.
Recreating accident and crime scenes is a great example of how animations can be vital. Showing how something works, from inside and out, in real time, proves your point in a simple and informative manner. Medical animations of surgeries and injuries help the jury understand the procedures without showing a bunch of x-rays that are often very difficult to comprehend by the average person. With the ability to composite graphics and 3d models over video or images really helps put the jury at the scene. These are just a few ways a quality animation can be vital to your case when legal exhibits simply will not suffice.
Our experts utilize many animation software packages. Many are the same ones used in big budget movies and television series. We have an abundance of aftermarket graphics, textures, sounds and 3d models on hand, with the ability to custom model from images, drawings or blueprints, if needed. With multiple servers and workstation quality computers, render times are cut drastically, saving valuable time to get your project out the door.
Multimedia
Our graphic professionals utilize all facets of multimedia design. From graphic & web design to audio & video editing, we can produce custom multimedia to include in any project, no matter the size.
Everything starts with the creation or alteration of a graphic, video, sound or image that the designer has to manipulate to create and combine into some kind of digital art. Understanding exactly what the client wants is key to creating something that is realistic, informative, and intelligent.
Certified programmers are on hand and work closely with the graphic designers when needed. This helps for projects that require alot of coding, like websites and scientifically accurate technical projects.
