The Battle of Pointe du Hoc is an interactive combat narrative about a heroic and crucial part of the Normandy invasion. This website was produced in partnership with filmmaker Dog Green Productions.
This website was created for the American Battle Monuments Commission (ABMC) and acts as a companion to a visitor center at the Pointe du Hoc battlefield location in France.
Interstitial videos, an interactive map, animations, and zoomable stills come together to make this an immersive experience, allowing users complete control over their pathway through this battle story.
ABMC projects strive to tell accurate accounts of America at war through interactive battle maps, oral histories, soldier databases, and interpretive exhibits at U.S. military visitor centers around the world.
