The Kennedy Space Cener Visitor’s complex wanted to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission.

The Kennedy Space Center Visitor’s Complex is a truly once-in-a-lifetime destination for anyone and everyone with a passion for space exploration. With exhibits that immerse audiences in the history and wonder of space flight, they know the value of a good experience. Working with SPRY, I was challenged with recreating the feeling of being in right here, at the climax of the space race, when NASA launched the Apollo 11 rocket that would allow man to walk on the moon for the very first time in human history.

The concept was to host a live event to celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Apollo 11 mission with a real-time recreation of the launch iteself syncrhonized down to the second. Using CBS archival news footage we created a multi-hour countdown video that played during the live event.
