Video of the Day: The MOFTB Suggests Shooting Without Sidewalk Space
With the original set of rules tossed aside, the Mayor's Office of Film, Theatre, and Broadcasting (MOFTB) has focused in on levels of sidewalk obstruction when it comes to shooting photographs and film in the city. Juliana Luecking points out the ridiculousness of the new rules, which don't allow much space for shooting.
There will be a public hearing about the new regulations on December 13th (details here), and you can address your comments prior to that to: message (a) film.nyc.gov. Read the entire press release from the MOFTB here.

At least she has the guts to show hers on the net and not sit around making trollish comments on news blog sites.

MFers can rent out public sidewalks to cafes and newspaper vendors, but citizens can't stop and take a picture because it clogs the sidewalks? It's nice to be king.

Has anyone pointed out to her the ridiculousness of filming on busy city streets and sidewalks?
