Trial Graphics Create a Story-Line

A professional in courtroom and trial graphics can take still images, 3D animations, sound recordings and video footage to create a full multimedia presentation. A phone call can play while the image of the speaker appears on the screen along with a transcript of the call. A photo montage of a victim's life can appear as loved ones speak.

Trial Graphics Create a Story-Line

In many cases, an understanding of the chronological sequence of actions is critical to reaching a true interpretation of what happened. A series of 3D images can be put together creating a story-line that portrays the series of events leading up to and following a possible crime. Animated images can also assist in demonstrating causation.

Many technical advancements in the use of trial graphics over the past two decades have moved the preparation of graphics out of the attorney's office and into specialized firms maintained by graphic professionals or specialists in trial graphics. Litigation graphics have come to play a powerful role in the modern courtroom.

Integrating Trial Graphics

There is the option of integrating audio and/or video into a set of trial graphics. Phone calls and security camera videos are often at the top of the list, but lawyers might also create media from medical information. For example, instead of showing medical records individually, they could showcase everything through a quick video. For juries, such a presentation is easier to digest, especially considering how much additional information they are expected to process.

Trial Graphics Often Include 3D Animations

Trial graphics may also contain animations, especially if a lawyer is trying to depict their theories on how a crime played out. By using animations, they re-tell the story of what happened. Juries no longer have to imagine what happened, which eliminates the chance that they may misunderstand an attorney’s arguments.

Most successful lawyers use trial graphics at some point in their careers. Through these images, juries gain a better understanding of the facts being presented to them. For this reason, courtroom graphics must be simple yet professional in appearance. If a lawyer cannot create these images themselves, they outsource the task to graphic design artists. From there, the images are compiled into a professional presentation. When the presentation is finished, lawyers can showcase a variety of media, ranging from crime photos to medical records. Video can also be included if necessary.

Trial Graphics- Demonstrative Trial Graphics

The ultimate success of a trial lawyer depends somewhat upon their ability to define what is truly important about a case, especially an accurate assessment of what prospective jurors will consider important. With so much at stake, meticulous research is essential. Outside consultants may be called in to help determine the "theme" of a case and assist in the development of appropriate courtroom exhibits to present a compelling version of the facts. These consultants claim an understanding of how jurors learn, think and deliberate and recommend ways of presenting demonstrative visual evidence that will meet that criteria. Services offered by trial graphics companies include but, are not limited to technical and medical illustrations, photography and video, physical models, charts and graphs and 2D and 3D computer animation otherwise known as computer generated imagery (CGI).

Trial Graphics- Courtroom Trial Graphics

Any courtroom trial involves a steep learning curve for most jurors, especially those new to the subject matter under discussion. This requires learning and memorization skills. There is evidence to suggest that people retain more information when is is presented with some kind of visual support. In fact, Studies have shown that between 61 and 65 percent of the general public are visual learners, which would indicate that at least half of every jury would show improved learning with visual support. It is also said that jurors retain only 10-15% of what the hear in the courtroom. Visual support is also thought to increase juror's retention of information.

Of the available resources, 3D animation is the most technology driven. Especially in accident and criminal cases, where events that are described verbally can be difficult for a juror to visualize accurately, 3D animation can be a useful tool for recreating an event, highlighting complex technical facts surrounding a case, or demonstration of forensic facts in a re-creation of an alleged crime. The choice of 3D animation as a visual tool depends on factors such as the purpose of the graphic, the amount of time needed to produce it, the existing budget, the need for future revisions, and the compatibility of 3D with other courtroom graphics included in the strategy.

Trial Graphics- Jury Information Retention
