As a filmmaker whose focus is poetic super 8 city films this would have devastating effects on my art. In fact, I recently shot several reels of historic and older neighborhoods in Hell’s Kitchen and the Fashion District. Filmmaking as an art can document and poetically interpret the feeling, mood, and history of the city. Film can capture people, buildings, movement, shapes, color, and the passage of time. We would not have many beautiful and thought-provoking works of art if filmmakers could not film with freedom. Many filmmakers work independently or with just a couple people. There isn’t a need to get a separate permit to creat art - that violates freedom of speech. Please throw those regulations out and schedule another public hearing.
