Most major cities require permits to film in public. I just did a promotional film for a
publishing company in NYC, something that will end up on DVD and passed out to
prospective clients. We needed about ten seconds of Mr. Everyman coming to work on the
subway. We did it in Queens without any problems but later I told a professional
cameraman working in NYC that we had done it and he said we were lucky. They've always
required permits for filming, even if it's a student film and not professional. After 911 they
are looking even more closely at this sort of thing.
