22 We always receive a lot of complaints that videotaping, especially on smart phones and i-pads, is very distracting to others. We have hired a professional videographer who has a lot of experience in filming dance. They use two cameras: one for stage and another for close-ups. They make sure to feature each child. Your child will watch it over & over! Each DVD is only $25.00 each and includes tax. BUT in order to respect the videographers, & others around you, as well as the studio, we ask that you NOT videotape. If we find someone who is not respecting these wishes, we have the right to ask them to leave. Page 22
