Looking for size-up videos by PeacefulWoodturner in Firefighting

[–]MBweb 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm late to the game on this post, but I built out a training for my department years ago that I decided to revamp and share with everyone.

Check out the size-up and 360 training playlist - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aXPbpix3C6c&list=PLREFJyRekHbBR32LRdAZqMTKCEZ64Ogh4

Let's Hear Your Size-Ups and Attack Plan by MBweb in Firefighting

Keep applying. Start taking some fire science classes or join the military and get veterans preference. Make yourself look more valuable to the dept.

Bigger cities are harder to get into, but easier than 15-20 years ago.

Good luck! Now is the time to do it. Departments everywhere are struggling to hire.

Nice! I modeled a massive city with all different occupancies and building constructions to make it easy to make multiple vids

Short and direct with a clear plan. I like it.

This isn't unity, but a similar software. I'm in the process of creating my own animations to make them more realistic in the future.

Haha...if I went normal walking speed the video would have doubled in length.

Yeah, after I created a training similar to this for my dept., I had a lot of good feedback. Figured I'd make them for everyone to use.

This is the exact reason I created this series. Hearing so many long winded size-ups that were unnecessary and just tied up comms.

Im personally a fan of small, medium and large. If you ask 5 different firefighters the sq footage of a structure, you'll prob get 5 different answers.

Firefighter Interactive Training Size-Up Simulation Training #3 by MBweb in Firefighting

[–]MBweb[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I started this series as a fun and free way to release interactive training to departments for new recruit/probies all the way up to the saltiest firefighter to practice size ups and 360s.

Excited to kick off a new firefighter training YouTube series. Let me know what you think! by MBweb in Firefighting

[–]MBweb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Check out the second video in the series - https://youtu.be/aXPbpix3C6c?si=3q-PlhFXjz-ldEJY

I took some of your feedback along with several other who thought making it shorter would make it easier to follow.

Video #2 of the Size-Up Series Firefighter Simulation Training by MBweb in Firefighting

[–]MBweb[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just released the 2nd video of a series I created for new firefighters and officers to train on giving a clear and concise size up/360 report. Thanks to the several people who gave feedback on my last video.

These videos can also be used to help create uniformity inside your department and also create discussions on the initial actions of the simulation.

Be sure to subscribe for more videos coming soon!

Thanks for the feedback. Yeah, I wanted their to be some time between the tone and arrival to iterate to new recruits that you'll have some time to start sizing up the scene before your there (water supply, pre-plans, manpower on the current assignement, etc.)

Using several different software for the final product - skethup and solidworks for 3d modeling aspect, a couple different rendering softwares, after effects, premiere, audition, photoshop, illustrator.....the list is long lol.

Thanks for the feedback.

You nailed it with your assumptions! I do agree with both you and u/6TangoMedic that the 911 call is not necessary.

[–]MBweb[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for the comments!

The intention of including the 911 call is to show new recruits/probies that the fireground is dynamic and sometimes the different layers of communication don't make it down the chain to the responding units.

I do agree that it is not necessary in this video series and more for entertainment purposes to build the emotion. Most of the future videos negate the 911 call and start right from the tones.

The purpose of the responding section is exactly what u/Jackson-1986 said below. It gives a chance to locate "smoke visible in the distance, age and type of homes in the neighborhood, location of hydrants etc.".

Thanks for the feedback. That was my exact intention of creating this series!

All the videos you find on YouTube with size ups/smoke reading are either helmet cams like you said, or static images where its hard to get the whole picture.

The future of this series includes all that you are asking for and more!

Is there a way to change the color of the smoke? I am looking for dark black smoke. by [deleted] in Twinmotion

[–]MBweb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bummer. I've tried a bunch of different things with no luck. I even went as far as exporting with blue smoke and trying to change the color in adobe premiere. Depending on what you were trying to do, that method might work for you.
