Yes, family, friends and fans may take
still photos of DCI events for personal use only. The images may not
be sold or otherwise distributed on a Web site or in print, without
the written permission of Drum Corps International or the corps that
was photographed. Please be considerate of the performers as well as
the fans seated around you. |
|
Small, nonprofessional, single frame
"point & shoot" and digital cameras are allowed into the venue.
Please be considerate of the performers and the fans seated around
you. Professional cameras or cameras with lenses longer than six
inches are prohibited, and all forms of video and motion picture
cameras and sound recording devices are strictly prohibited. Tripods
or other similar equipment that may obstruct the view or path of
travel of others in the stands are also not allowed. |

Can
I share my DCI photos with family and friends? |
Return
to Top |
|
While we appreciate the desire to give
photos away or to post them to a Web site, DCI asks that action
photos not be distributed or publicly displayed without the written
permission of Drum Corps International or the corps being
photographed. Sharing a photograph of a family member or friend
singly who is participating is acceptable on family Web sites
without permission. |
|
Can I
take video or audio of an event or a corps rehearsing? |
Return
to Top |
|
While we know that fans like to relive
the events on videotape or to share them with friends, due to
copyright restrictions based on federal law, video and audio
recordings even for personal use are not permitted without
permission from DCI or the corps that is being recorded. |
|
Can I
use my flash? |
Return
to Top |
|
As the lighting in most DCI major event
venues now meets TV broadcast specs, the use of on camera flash is
ineffective at best, but the choice to use flash is up to the fan. |
|
I am a
professional or advanced amateur; can I get a pass to photograph a
DCI event? |

DCI media
credentials are restricted to recognized local and national print
media. If you fall into one of these categories and are on
assignment, you may request a single event credential in writing.
The request must come from the publication editor and/or publisher.
The request should also include a sample of the publication and an
explanation of how and when the photos will be used in the
publication. Media requests must be submitted in writing on
publication letterhead at least 14 days prior to the event. Direct
all inquiries to: DCI Media Relations, 470 S. Irmen Dr., Addison, IL
60101. Fax, phone and e-mail inquiries are not currently accepted. |

What do
you mean by publicly displayed? |
Return
to Top |
|
DCI defines public display as a Web
site, printed publication or physical location where the public at
large can gain access to one or more images of a DCI corps in
rehearsal or performance. |
