OVERVIEW

The presentation of evidence through the use of video recordings is extremely valuable in supporting a legal argument and providing clarity to the triers of fact (whether that be a magistrate or jury) in a clear and succinct manner.

The creation of a video presentation by a forensic video expert can ensure the video evidence is communicated in an accessible way through various methods, such as motion tracking graphics to show the movement of people, synchronisation of multiple cameras and narration of events.
