3seasons Posted July 16, 2008 Report Share Posted July 16, 2008 Just read this on mossback.com you should see the elk on the video. Here is my question. "A new law also prohibits the selling of any video footage from Forest Service, BLM and State Lands. Anyone who produces a video to sell or is compensated for selling one second or more of video footage without a permit is breaking the law. Permits are required for every different National forest or BLM area you will be filming in. They will be watching any videos produced and handing out some heavy fines. You must obtain a film permit from Forest Service and the BLM. A $1 Million dollar insurance policy is required (which runs about $2,000 a year). This policy is nationwide for TV & video." mossback.com site Do any of you know if this is true or not? I have never heard anything on this subject.

Rhino Posted July 17, 2008 Report Share Posted July 17, 2008 Doesn't surprise me that they would do it. Permits have been required in the past for making big screen movies and TV shows but it seems hunting related videoing has slipped through the cracks. Anyway, here's the only thing I have been able to find outside of the site you mentioned. http://www.nppa.org/news_and_events/news/2006/04/fees.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruttinbuc Posted July 18, 2008 Report Share Posted July 18, 2008 Comes down to the money...The days of using the parks and forests for free are pretty much over. Another one of those things where this country is slipping one piece at a time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
