Through the Los Angeles Fire Department Photo Pool at Flickr and the LAFD YouTube Channel, we are honored to share still and moving images of your neighborhood firefighters at work.
Today, we're pleased to highlight a unique video that offers stark contrast to the explosive color and stirring audio to which we all have grown accustomed.
Please join us in the captivating silence of a black and white production by videographer A.L. Howard, entitled "Firefighters":
We encourage you to share your still and video images of the Los Angeles Fire Department in action by simply naming or tagging your Flickr images or YouTube video with 'LAFD'.

Was it real fire dept work or acting for the camera.
Anonymous 12:21,
Though our office had no formal contact with the videographers before shooting - and none was required for this video captured in public space - our initial assessment is that all action portrayed real Los Angeles Firefighters (not actors) and was naturally occurring (not scripted, directed or recreated) action at the scene of a real structure fire in Los Angeles.
I hope this information helps.
Respectfully Yours in Safety and Service,
Brian Humphrey
