<p>Well, at least I find the thread interesting. There are some posted videos that might interest people here, as well as some conversation around MT chances, in general.</p>
<p>Thanks for posting this....interesting...</p>
<p>Tar, thanks for posting this link, interesting discussion. It's good to see what non-MT people think.</p>
<p>By request, I uploaded "Empty Chairs and Empty Tables." If you're interested, here's the URL <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoKBkD-6BGc%5B/url%5D">http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NoKBkD-6BGc</a></p>
<p>Very nice....</p>
<p>Beautiful...</p>
<p>Such fun to see these clips. Just wanted to suggest that if this is your child's school, Tarhunt, be careful about posting them. Licensing agents will not be happy if they find them online, as filming productions is not usually permitted, and if they can identify the school, the director may have a problem securing rights in the future.</p>
<p>Actually, it's not my child's school, and YouTube is littered with this stuff. As a former Equity actor and a member of SAG and AFTRA, I would not post this if it were a professional show. There's no profit motive here, though.</p>
<p>As I said, YouTube is littered with this stuff with the name of the high school prominently displayed. I doubt licensing agents care a whole lot about going after high school plays, but your point is well taken.</p>
<p>I have a friend who works for MTI and, believe it or not, they pursue schools frequently for various 'offenses', including videotaping shows as well as performing shows without securing the rights.</p>
<p>always:</p>
<p>What's interesting about this particular production (and truly, I know what general area this is from, but not the name of the school) is that it appears to have been professionally shot with at least two, and I'm thinking three, cameras. Production companies like that generally insist on written permission to shoot.</p>
<p>Do you know if rights are sometimes granted?</p>
