I've got a new outline I typed out. I'm all for suggestions.
Outline
Intro, perhaps with footage and music spliced into it, perhaps with a blank colored screen and words going across it like credits on TV.
Intro of those on camera, first with a brief explanation of the purpose of the video, and second where each individual introduces themselves, and quickly and without further comment says what they carry.
When the main body of the film starts, a large assortment of handguns and holsters will be on the table laid out neatly. The handguns will be placed right by their holsters for neatness and convenience. The handguns must be unloaded and locked open, or have their cylinders swung out.
Starting with the holsters, each holster will be gone over for how it is used. If possible, this will include a holster being in hand as it’s being discussed, as well as someone wearing another one to demonstrate how it’s used with an ASP red gun, or perhaps a pistol with the barrel removed. The following characteristics will be gone over for each.
- Cost
- Safety
- Comfort
- Speed
- Durability
- Concealability and/or retention where applicable
- How to use properly and what role it’s best suited for
Live fire demos and staged violent encounters can easily be spliced into this by having a blank screen that says “demo” and cutting to demo drawing and shooting using that rig.
After that, pistols themselves and how appropriate and safe they are for use in specific holsters will be assessed by the group with the checklist.
- Drop safety
- Cost
- Safe and proper carry condition
- Proper ways to load and unload
Gun belts and mag pouches can also be gone over at this point, if desired.
The staged violent encounter footage to be spliced in later will be filmed at this point. This could also be used as stand alone youtube movie material with written or audio commentary. Whatever seems to work well.
Conclusion with some silly line like “Stay armed, stay safe, and thanks for watching”.
