Yaoi-Con 2008 | A Celebration of Male Beauty & Passion in Anime & Manga

I was just wondering, why is it that you can't videotape the bishounen auction? Is it privacy issues, or something, because there's already plenty of pictures of the bishies stripping circling around the internet anyway.
My friend proposed that the con just hire a small filming crew to film the auction and then they could just sell it officially to people to make money for future cons. . my friend said she'd definitely pay for a copy if such a thing were to happen, and I know I sure as hell would.
So. . .is it a good idea, or is that totally illegal? :?

i think privacy issues would be a major concern...as it is, i ended up being a bit more shy on my candy gummy worm tentacle monster silliness because i didn't necessarily want that floating all around the web.

its the sort of thing that could come back to "bite" someone. sure pictures can float around outside the yaoi-con circles, but with things like youtube a video would get way out of hand really quickly.

Hmm .. that's true. Can't believe I forgot about youtube. . and I use it almost every day.
