They have posted a "No Video or Audio recording" rule at the front desk. I have asked for permission to shoot it for non-commercial release. I had a few "notable figures" vouch for me so we'll see what happens. I don't think they will let me do the BBB fireside chat though. I have been hanging all day with Shaggy and the jury is still out wherther they will let me do that. Sucks folks. I'll let you know what I find out.

I'm not allowed to shoot anything but the Norm and Shaggy show. If someone else here wants to take the chance... I'm not going to do it though, they will be watching me.

Since no one is allowed to audio/video record, is there going to be an "official" recording made at all by the Epso organizers? If not, it's kinda lame they wouldn't allow recordings unless the speakers requested it.

There were people taping at expo so I'm certain something will be available. I guess they figure they should make some $ off it.

It was the same as I was there last year, they didn't say anything though as I taped the fireside chat then (about MM).

Actually as a sidenote, they did tape themselves also (the organizers) with a static camera not following the action happening but just pointed directly at where they where sitting. As their tape ran out they missed a lots of great things and I do question the quality of their recording (Hi8). Myself, I got 90 minutes of recording on 3CCD DV-camera and didn't miss a thing (changed tape one time but quick and at the right moment) + recorded actively where the action took place and got pretty unique stuff actually which they missed. *

Do think that if they should continue with their policy of not allowing recordings to be made so that they can sell their own, then they should really do it much better and more professional. ....else raise the cost for Expo and allow people to record for themselves.

*) Due to their restrictions I'm not so happy about sharing my recording, at least not before someone with legal knowledge has given their opinion about it (since US is pretty crazy about sueing for the smallest things...).

We're looking into possibilities for the MM fireside chat from last year. I can't promise anything yet. Sadly though I didn't go there this year, so no, I don't have anything on the BBB fireside chat... I do too, hope that someone has it on tape.

BigBangJoe, there's more reasons then just the legal reasons why I'm careful with sharing it, but let's leave that outside of online-forums.
