CAPS media crew on location

CAPS crews recorded informative messages for the public with the Ventura Police.

CAPS Media’s is continuing to expand production services with the City of Ventura to share information about what’s happening in the community and at City Hall. Working in collaboration with Ashley Bautista, Interim Communications Manager for the City, CAPS crews recorded informative messages for the public with Ventura Police and California State Parks Lifeguards relaying 4th of July regulations and beach safety. At another location CAPS crews interviewed Meredith Hart, the City’s Safe and Clean program manager, who explained the city’s various outreach and clean up programs.
