This project studied four unique and intriguing armors from the Higgins Armory Museum collection and presented three of the suits in an educational, fourteen-minute video-documentary. These armors are all characteristic pieces of their respective points in history—Europe and Japan from the 15th to 18th centuries—painting the history of their eras. The project team researched and documented the armors, generated a script, filmed footage, and created a video-documentary to be shown to museum visitors.
