SPECIAL SKILLS and EQUIPMENT:

 ** Composite Art – Using the F.B.I.. Facial Feature Catalog and the input of a victim or witness to a crime, a pencil rendering of a suspect can be generated from the witness’ memory.

** Three Dimensional Reconstruction – With a skull, the pathology and anthropological information regarding the skull, tissue depth markers can be installed. After the installation of the tissue depth markers, clay can be installed to the indicated depths, thus a three dimensional sculpture of the unidentified individual can be created.

** Two Dimensional Reconstruction – With the pathology and anthropological information regarding the skull, a scale photo image of the skull can be made with the tissue depth markers in place. A pencil rendering can be made in both a frontal and profile view. The image would then be distributed for identification.

 ** Post Mortem Drawing – With morgue or scene photos of a decedent, a pencil rendering can be done so that a more effective image of the unknown decedent can be distributed for identification.

** Image Enhancement – From a blurred video or photo image, a pencil rendering can be made to clarify images, and features not easily seen in their original form.

** Age Progression – 1. Fugitives avoiding apprehension for many years can be age progressed so that an image, that shows the changes that may have occurred over the years of aging, can be distributed and the subject brought to justice.

2. Missing juveniles can be age progressed to show approximately what they would look like as they grow and mature. The image would then be broadcast with the hope that the individual can be recovered.
