Grandma's desire to see it doesn't trump the people behind you.  If you must record it, get off to the side or video from eye level only. [/quote]

Different poster. Unfortunately, eye level videoing in your seat is still horrible--the glow of the screen is still visible and immensely distracting to everyone behind the person holding that phone. Even when screens are set to the darkest setting, they are still visible. I like the principal who said any videos had to be taken from the sides of the auditorium.

I'm the dance poster from above and because our studio clearly announces there must be no videos or photos during shows, it's MUCH easier to tell another parent, "please do't film; the camera away--the studio doesn't allow any videos". If a school bans it or limits it to side aisles, it will be easier for parents to police it when some parent fires up the blasted screen. It's so phenomenally rude.[/quote]
