Schools, swimming pools and leisure centres have strict rules about filming sporting activities on their premises, To be honest, the rules are often ridiculous. </p> <p>This year, I filmed the Wales senior indoor track &amp; field championships but didn't record the junior champs because the age-groups involved were Under15s, Under17s and Under20s and if one parent had objected to having his or her son or daughter filmed, I would not have been able to film that particular race or event. I do put a clause in my contract that the client is responsible for obtaining permissions and the more enlightened clubs are realising that the type of publicity and exposure their club or sport can get is worth the effort of adding a disclaimer on their membership forms to be signed by the child's parent or guardian.</p> <p>I would be interested in any opinions or case histories that anyone might want to add to this thread.</p> <p>Bob</p> http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/topic/help-with-nonlinear-video-equipment#post-47060 Thu, 21 May 2009 15:42:19 +0000 marco 47060@http://www.videomaker.com/community/forums/ <p> i last year i started filming weddings and events i recently purchased a Sony HVR-HD1000u camera and a new top notch XPS pc.
