The Corso Files is an immersive, mystery-themed digital experience that invites viewers to explore the story of Philip J. Corso: an infamous U.S. Army officer and member of President Eisenhower’s National Security Council who claimed to have firsthand knowledge of extraterrestrial technology. Paradigm Shift was tasked with creating an interactive website that captures the intrigue, atmosphere, and speculative history surrounding Corso’s legacy.
Our concept centered on building a 3D, noir-inspired environment that sets the tone for discovery. Visitors begin their journey with a cinematic animated intro, drawn into a digital recreation of a dimly lit investigator’s office. From there, the experience transitions into an interactive file cabinet interface, serving as both a navigational menu and a metaphor for uncovering hidden knowledge.
Each “file” within the cabinet reveals curated documents, images, and historical materials tied to Corso’s claims, blending storytelling with digital exploration. The site also features an integrated e-commerce page, allowing visitors to purchase related merchandise and Corso’s well-known book The Day After Roswell.
