"Behind the Badge" with the Fargo Police Department

This past summer and fall we had the opportunity work with Fargo's Finest to produce their new community services program "Behind the Badge," hosted by Officer Joel Vettel. Produced by Troy Parkinson with original set design by Phil Kerr, the programs are designed to inform the Fargo community about various aspects of the Fargo Police Department and provide the opportunity to look at life "Behind the Badge." Tom Tollefson shot both in the studio and on location for the shows, with Autumn Steenerson as editor.

In the first episode, Officer Vettel interviewed Fargo Police Chief Chris Magnus and the K-9 unit. The second episode took a look at Fargo's bicycle and Harley Davidson patrol. The programs air on Fargo's public access station and will be used by the Fargo Police Department at various service group presentations. Look for new episodes in the coming year.
