Prop Firearm Safety Class

The TET Fund, in conjunction with the Local One Sisters’ Committee, is proud to present a new course on prop firearm safety. Firearms safety is crucial in TV and live theater to protect cast, crew, and audiences from serious injury. Even when labeled as a “prop”, firearms can still discharge harmful projectiles and cause accidents. Strict safety protocols—such as using qualified armorers, verifying that weapons are unloaded, and rehearsing within clear safety zones—helps prevent tragedies. Prioritizing safety not only ensures a secure working environment but also demonstrates professionalism and respect for everyone involved in a production.
What to expect:
A review of basic gun safety on a set; eye, and ear protection will be provided, or you can bring your own. Participants will handle a prop weapon in a controlled environment, and resource materials will also be provided.
