Los Angeles Air Raid of 1942
by Mike on Mar.09, 2009, under Current Productions
The film crew was invited down to Fort MacArthur in San Pedro, CA for an awesome reenactment of the historic (and controversial) Air Raid that took place over LA on February 24, 1942. Was it a Japanese plane, a weather balloon, or even an UFO? The truth will probably never be known, but it was great nostalgic fun to be able to participate in this annual event. As you can see, there were a lot of folks dressed in character and the military gear was as authentic as you can get.
(Special thanks to Joe Janesic, Board of Directors of the Fort MacArthur Museum, for allowing our crew to film that day).
Behind the Scenes - S.S. Lane Victory

Here are a couple of behind the scenes shots aboard the USS Lane Victory in San Pedro, CA while we were shooting a number of scenes for a project we are working on for the Rotary Club. Many thanks for Marty Dodell who was kind enough to allow us to shoot aboard that amazing ship. If you are ever in San Pedro, I would highly recommend visiting this great attraction. Oh and by the way, if the ship looks familiar its because its been used in many motion picture and television productions.
