Telling History Through Powerful Storytelling & Historical Video Production
The National Museum of Military Vehicles is dedicated to preserving and sharing the stories behind the equipment, technology, and pivotal moments that shaped military history. As part of our ongoing partnership, Gliffen provides full-scope historical video production, helping the museum bring complex and emotional subjects to life through compelling visual narratives.
For each video in this series, our team handles storyboarding, research, media sourcing, script refinement, thumbnail graphic design, and final videography/editing. The goal: create educational, emotionally resonant videos that fit seamlessly into the museum’s gallery experience.
“Little Boy: The Atomic Bomb That Changed History”
The story of Little Boy marks one of the most significant and sobering moments in global history. Our approach focused on balancing technical accuracy with emotional weight, ensuring the video conveys both the scientific breakthrough and the devastating human cost.
Video Synopsis:
This video traces the development of Little Boy, the first atomic bomb used in warfare, from the pressures of the Manhattan Project to the final mission over Hiroshima. It breaks down the engineering behind the weapon, the strategic decisions that led to its deployment, and the immediate and long-term impact that reshaped international relations and warfare forever. By blending archival footage, historic imagery, and intentional pacing, the video supports NMMV’s mission to educate visitors with clarity, respect, and historical depth.
