Making Excuses? I literally worked Locations for big production, and getting permits is literally the bottom-tier, "no shit" to-do list. Some of these parks are $100 permits, and they're not even asking that you, the professional, on NOT public property, prove you have liability insurance. Photographers and artists, in general, always want to believe that their setup is un-intrusive, but it is. The Permits usually give you more freedom than if you were a random patron of the park.
Why is it OK for photographers/videographers to build in "wear and tear" into their pricing, but not for parks?
