Thanks yorky!
Gotta feel sorry for the guy. Hey Turbo, how much extra footage would you have taken that wasn't shown?? and who effectively owns it now??

I put down around 22 minutes in total.

Interesting on who owns it. My understanding is that the stations own the broadcasting rights and we own the footage.

EDIT: Thanks yorky!

So would you uploading some of that footage to somewhere like youtube after it's been broadcast then be in breach of copyright or any of your agreements??

I would think if the Turbo crew own the footage (3rd party company) they can do whatever they want with it? They just on-sell it to the media? Do correct me if I'm wrong though I'm not sure on the arrangements.

And Turbo do you rely on phone calls a little more now that you can't listen in?

No we are contracted by the stations -we dont sell the footage, they already paid for it.

Dont think we can put any on youtube as I think that is still considered to be broadcasting it. Bit of a gray area. Will find out soon.

EDIT: Always appreciate phone calls yorky - I assume they are gonna be a lot more valuable now...

isnt that why Your called freelancer cameraman.

0%. We all wish.

We do. Trust me, someone broke off my passenger side wing mirror yesterday between 1.45pm and 5.30 pm while I was at work. No unfortunately crime is still around!

No we are not freelance.

A freelance is a person who films then tries to sell the footage - like I said, we are contracted.
