Motion Picture & Television Office Mission

U.S. Coast Guard Motion Picture & Television Office

Mission:

Enhance public awareness and understanding of the U.S Coast Guard, its people and missions through a cooperative effort with the entertainment industry.

We assist with technical research and story line development on Coast Guard related projects.

We provide stock footage of actual Coast Guard operations and B-roll of Coast Guard resources in action.

We arrange for filming and re-creations at Coast Guard facilities or on board our cutters, small boats and aircraft.

We coordinate interviews and travel requests for Coast Guard men and women.

We provide on-location technical advice, dialogue assistance and coordination of all Coast Guard resources and people.

We complete rapid turnaround review of scripts, treatments and rough-cuts to ensure accuracy, authenticity and conformity to revocable production agreements.

To obtain Coast Guard support for your entertainment project, contact the Motion Picture & Television Office. Once your proposal is approved and a production agreement established, you will be on your way to exciting action, adventure and drama.
