Yes. Most of the movie performances state pretty clearly "no video recording". Paul Lalli

They used to. They've relaxed a lot of the rules now, since video can even be taken with some phones... I just listen for the magic words, "No video camera lighting". That usually gives me the go ahead. (As opposed to Ellen's Energy Adventure, where they'll sever the hand that's holding the camcorder, or something like that...) I've found most CM's don't care if you're very discreet about it. During dark rides/shows, go as far as to block the viewfinder, so guests behind you can't see it. (Be a good videographer. Turn off your LED recording indicator, never use an IR (i.e. nightvision) source, and use the viewfinder (not the preview screen) on dark rides. If you need to use external video lighting, then don't, and get a better videocam.) 3D movies like Philharmagic require a polarized filter to filter out one of the images. (A broken pair of 3D glasses will work just fine, you may have to rotate a pair of polarized sunglasses a certain way to achieve the same effect, though sunglasses will also darken the image. That's why real polarized photo filters rotate, so you can film 3D movies... :-)) Keane -- When stars are born, They possess a gift or two, One of them is this, They have the power to make a wish come true... -- Wishes Visit my site: http://keanespics.com

Pretty much everything Keane said - about being a concientious videographer and such - right up to the "because".

I have found that videotaping dark ride attractions such as Indiana JonesT Adventure is acceptable with night vision infrared emitters, when you get on or when you're preparing for boarding, make your request of the loading cast member to please inform the tower that your infrared lamps are on, and then I point to the barely visible red glow and this is not interfering with other guests. This keeps them from saying "please turn off your camera light" at every opportunity, spoiling everyone's ride. > > 3D movies like Philharmagic require a polarized filter to filter > out one of the images.

The machine assembles the lenses into the frame doesn't care if it's a left lens are or right lens, it just blows air across many lenses until two fall correctly in place. The shape of the lens is one way. The lens could have been its opposite in a previous viewing. I was informed by my father, a cinematographer, that polarization filters could rotate to adjust the value and contrast of blue sky and clouds. -- All ladders in the Temple of the Forbidden Eye have thirteen steps.
