About us

What we do

Shooter-Media-TV documents exercises and operations of every kind: emergency runs, presentations of vehicles and equipment, image films, reports, parades and other documentaries around the blue-light and amber-light services. Since 2008 the YouTube channel has grown to more than 4,300 videos with over 85 million views.

The focus is the work of the emergency, relief and recovery services and the equipment they use. Every report on this site carries the original press release of the responsible authority, where one exists, and the forces deployed.

Who is behind it

Shooter-Media-TV is run by Alexander Hald from Stuttgart, a freelance photo and video journalist for online, print and TV. Information about incidents comes from the police press distribution lists, the integrated control centres, fellow journalists and our own sources. Sources are never named.

Partner agencies: 7aktuell and TV7NEWS.

Using the videos

The copyright of every documentary is ours. Videos may be shared, linked and embedded on other sites unchanged, that is via the existing link. For commercial use, for example by TV production companies, please send a written request through the contact form.

Fire brigades, youth fire brigades and relief organisations can have their main, deployment or alarm exercise filmed and presented; reports and image films are possible too. Please announce larger exercises about six to eight weeks in advance.

Thanks
