Filming projects
Are you planning an advertising campaign, film or social media production involving the use of firearms? If you are, either with live firing or using guns as props, the marketplace is sensitive to visual images of unsafe handling, improper use, or mistakes. As a result advertisements or video clips often attract more derision than support when the makers fail to get it right.
WMS Firearms Training has a remarkable breadth of knowledge in the safe handling and use of firearms and associated equipment such as optics and sticks and in all social and professional applications.
As such we can help in the concept, planning and production stages of your film campaign by providing the right advice in the right context to ensure your work is accurate and professional.
Examples of our work in this area include:
Providing consultancy, a professional shooter and location services to Unilad who came to us to film a promo for Call of Duty. The resulting film had 2.7m hits.
Working with Mauser to promote its M12 rifle; filmed on location here at WMS and featuring Andrew Venables, WMS Lead Instructor, the film has had 95,500 views to date.
Working with Zeiss and Fieldsports Channel TV to make a film about testing the Zeiss V6 scope at long range for broadcast on Fieldsports Britain.
