The short answer is yes, but not necessarily intentionally. Because of the nature of the show, hundreds of people will be taking photos and short videos to post to their various social media accounts and to share with family and friends. Likewise, our staff will be taking photos and shooting videos for promotional use. YouTubers, celebrity guests, and others will also be recording with various methods as well. Chances are you might end up photographed or videoed.
