Is it illegal to publish?

[Mr.CookieMonster]

Hi guys,

I recorded a video (really bad quality) of the tour guy at robben island showing and talking to us some things.

I been hearing things like you need to get permission to upload things of people, but I hear if its your own work then its not a problem.

So, would it be illegal if i published the video on my site, or will I have to get permission first before uploading it?

Thanks

you will need his permission imo, written permission.

A production company was shooting "Laugh out loud" for mnet at a building I was at. Anybody caught on camera was asked to sign a release form. No I did not look at the release form

If a picture or video is taken in a public place - no.
If you are in a private place or presumably paid for it then probably yes.

I paid money to go to the place, does this mean I cant even publish the photo's I took of the place even though there is no people in them?

Interesting subject. Trying to work out what it has to do with Software and Web DEVELOPMENT

Try asking in the General Discussion - Photography forum. They may know more about the legality of publishing videos
