A lot of people have asked about the work involved in gathering video material for firefighting videos. In addition to the ongoing research and study related to the creation of the LAFD education series of videos, there is time spent in the field capturing crews at work. While this often involves traffic accidents and EMS (emergency medical services) calls, fire remains the primary objective.

Our team is equipped with protective gear and radios and we have been given instruction on how to interact with department members while on scene at an incident. And, as exciting as it may sound to ride out with a fire company, it is serious work. And, as a part of that work, we get seriously dirty - and on occasion, very wet!

The first title in the Los Angeles Fire Department Museum & Memorial education series is now complete. Kids Love Fire Engines is being mastered and will be available before the end of the month.

A lot of small details have been changed during the past month, and as this is the initial product, some additional time was taken to ensure a quality product.

Formal release will follow pre-release copies to reviewers and LAFD officers. As soon as the title is available, the purchase links in products will allow you to execute an online order. Shipping typically takes one week.
