TFAS.
The theatrical firearms safety & training workshop designed to provide actors and creatives alike with the knowledge and confidence required in order to handle firearms efficiently both on and off set.
How it works
The workshop is split into two modules, a theory, classroom-style session covering generic firearm safety and on set protocols, and a practical handling session where you'll get to grips with handling replica/imitation firearms.
BE INFORMED, BE SAFE.
MODULE 1: THEORY
The theory module is designed with one thing in mind, safety.
Throughout the session we cover a range of topics, from general firearm safety and essential weapon knowledge, to risk prevention, crew responsibilities, on set protocol, and set etiquette.
GET SCREEN READY.
MODULE 2: PRACTICAL
This is where you will get to handle, understand, and learn how to operate popular weapons platforms such as the GLOCK 17 and the M4/AR15. The first half of this session will consist of basics such as grip, stance, operation, and movement, with the second half focusing on room entry & close quarter tactics.
