The Questions: Explain why these are of interest to you. What specific concepts and terms were involved – in other words, what are the legal issues?

I am interested in these question because all of filming I do around this city of Las Vegas. Usually the filming is for short, noncommercial video skits that are used in church. I now understand the usefulness of permission of use and understand why a property would want to protect their trademark and reputation from deceptive, misleading, or just plain false information.

3. Shooting video and film in public for a story such as”Obesity in America,”
what are the legal issues filming obese people?

Shooting in any city, county, or state about any subject whether it is true or not that might infringe on their private lives must be blurred out or only a portion of their parts if permission was not granted. ...Todd Uglow

4. Shooting video and film of a public figure or a known person, what are the
limits for the use?

Public figures are treated different than the average citizen like the "news" they don't need permission first before to run a story as long the story is true. There are limits for the news and other publications that may not be true, deceptive, misleading, a parody, or just plain false. News and other sources of information have been sued before and have lost before. ...Todd Uglow
