In Episode 020 of the D&D Fitness Radio Podcast we speak with Hollywood Tactical and Technical Consultant, Chic Daniel, about the transition from his career with the Los Angeles Police Department to his role in advising producers, directors, cinematographers, stunt coordinators and actors on everything tactical and law-enforcement related. Chic worked for over 25 years for the LAPD, including a number of years for the department’s SWAT unit. For some of those years, he took on acting roles for television and film productions, including movies with action star, Steven Seagal. When Chic retired from policing, he transitioned into a full-time tactical and technical consultant for Hollywood productions. His handiwork can be seen in films such as Traffic, Swordfish, The Fast and the Furious, Oceans Eleven, Collateral, Miami Vice, 21 Jump Street, Straight Outta Compton and Sicario 2.

Chic is exceptionally adept at instructing actors on the safe and effective use of firearms. He is meticulous with all aspects of the tactical and technical training of actors who are expected to make deadly force encounters in film and television look as realistic as possible. His professional approach and dedication to providing both safe and authentic portrayals of law enforcement scenarios make him one of the most sought after consultants in the film industry. We discuss all aspects of his training and preparation, including his own physical fitness regime, in this episode.
