I don't like to be on film video or stills without being asked first. I had my film camera and asked if I could take a few pictures ... it's just something out of respect for the persons around you. Hell I have an audition for a movie on sunday that I know i will get the part so it's not that I don't like being on film. But take this as you wish... if you do go on with this please inform me so I will NOT be there. I enjoyed meeting all of you but if someone does not respect my wish I will not come back.
Would you ?

This is not an upset post just a bit of what I think about the whole idea...

I told them earlier that I didn't want to be on camera - of any sort. Most people respect that.

I'd even be willing to wear a badge or something indicating "NO Pictures" if the other people with cameras would respect that...
I'd try really hard to respect it.

Having people NOT attend Sanctus, because their every move is being recorded...
That's not a good option. I have also stated to one of the DJs that if it comes down to a policy of "If you're attending Sanctus, expect/allow photographs at any point by anyone whether you're willing or not", then I simply won't attend, either. And I *do* take photos...
But not so much anymore.

Janell, I am with you on this... the only reason I take pictures is because it's like my prozac LOL also it gives me something to remeber the event from. I still have yet to scan the ones I have. I would hate to see that it come to this point. Because of someones lack of respect for others. But you know it takes one bad apple to sicken the lot.

Take Care and be safe.

i would like to take this opportunity to reiterate for everyone's benefit that if you think i've taken your picture, and want it erased or would like to review it (yay for preview screens), feel free to ask. this also goes for if you think i've taken your picture.

the only exception i make to this, is if you're hamming it up while i'm pointing the goddamn thing at you, and then decide later that it would be kind of embarrassing. don't do that. i'll keep copies.

luckily for you camera shy people, i won't be there this month. :mrgreen:
