THE ROLE OF THE MOTION PICTURE AND EVENTS ARMOURER

The question most asked is:

What is the function of the Armourer on the film or event's set?

Most of us would answer in simple terms, "We supply the weapons." In fact the role

of a Professional Armourer is far more complex than that.

The Armourers Role -

Our role is to supply the correct types of firearms to suit the genre of the film, provide the most suitable Blank Cartridges for the required action with regard to the potential dangers involved. Set up a safe "on set" code of practice and coach the actors so that they will be able to handle the weapons with the proficiency required to match their character & to do it safely on the film set.

We provide the director with the correct advice with regard to the type of firearms required the correct use of the firearms and help to choreograph the gun fire sequences so that the edited footage will be both realistic and believable.

We have worked on TV & Films such as:

Band of Brothers

Charlotte Gray
