EarthCam Commemorates September 11 Anniversary with 9/11 Memorial Museum Time-Lapse Movie
WHAT: Tomorrow is the 13th anniversary of the September 11, 2001 attacks on the World Trade Center in New York City. EarthCam is pausing to remember and reflect, and is sharing its commemorative time-lapse movie for construction of the 9/11 Memorial Museum. The movie highlights construction progress for the memorial pools and museum from groundbreaking to completion.
WHY: EarthCam’s megapixel construction cameras captured progress of the 110,000-square-foot exhibit and the HD images are being used for time-lapse photography and historic record. From October 2004 to May 2014, millions of photos of the jobsite were archived and EarthCam’s on-site producers edited the footage into a commemorative two and a half minute time-lapse movie. Also visible in the time-lapse is the “Survivor Tree,” which was discovered and nurtured after the September 11 attacks and is a living reminder of strength and resilience.
EarthCam CEO & Founder, Brian Cury, personally installed the first camera just days after the attacks on September 11 to webcast the rescue and recovery for families, and the world, to see the brave determination of first responders. The time-lapse honors the victims of 9/11 and is dedicated to their families and friends, with special gratitude to the first responders and the steadfast construction teams. All of the images and the original camera have been donated to the 9/11 Memorial Museum.
HOW: Witness ten years of construction in two and a half minutes with EarthCam’s time-lapse of the 9/11 Memorial Museum at www.youtube.com/earthcam.
