Beau, The Aurora Regional Fire Museum has five video kiosks, with a half-dozen short interpretative videos on each. We've also uploaded them on our YouTube site if you want to take a peek. The ones most relevant to your question would be: Firefighting in the Hand Drawn Era - How a Hand Pumper Works http://youtu.be/z4CFaw_J38U Firefighting in the Horse-Drawn Era - Getting Water http://youtu.be/1mMlAlfjAXg Let me know if you have anymore questions - David - David Lewis, Curator Aurora Regional Fire Museum www.AuroraRegionalFireMuseum.org -----Original Message----- From: George Harris <[log in to unmask]> To: [log in to unmask] Sent: Fri, Jun 3, 2011 12:00 pm Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Interpretive Videos Hello, I'm trying to find museums that have some good videos/animation that interpret things that are on display. Specifically I'm interested in videos of things with moving parts that are hard to interpret (we have machine tools, most of which are relatively hard to interpret). I've seen a couple of the videos at the Musee des Arts et Metiers in France (which are great) and looked at the Waterworks Museum website. Any suggestions as to who to talk with would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
