FIREFIGHTERS from Gembrook and Pakenham Upper brigades may see their names up in lights.
Crews helped out during recent filming of the upcoming Hollywood movie Where the Wild Things Are, parts of which were shot in the local district.

Members are hoping the brigade names will appear in the credits of the movie.
