Registered exhibitor employees are permitted to photograph, film/video record from their own company’s booth during exhibitor personnel access hours; a request form is not required for this activity.
Exhibitors may request to use a third-party photographer or film/video crew during published exhibit hours. Companies wishing to hire a third-party contractor (outside of the official show vendor) must complete and return the SNA Booth Photography Request Form no later than 30-days prior to move-in of ANC. If permission is granted, a fee of $750 per booth will be collected by Monday, June 30, 2025. Due to space limitations and to ensure the safety and well-being of our attendees, permission will be given to a limited number of companies on a first come first served basis.
Media companies requesting access to the ANC Exhibit Hall to cover activities within the exhibition must be registered with the SNA Press Office. Media requests using this form will not be approved.
Third-party contractors must adhere to the following guidelines:
1. Photography and film/video recording may occur only within the assigned exhibit booth of the requesting exhibitor. If requesting to record outside of the assigned exhibit booth, SNA-appointed film escorts are available for a fee and paid for in advance by the individual exhibitor. The availability of official film escorts is limited. Requests after the deadline date are not guaranteed.
2. All photographing, film/video recording activities must not interfere with set-up, exhibition activities or teardown. Use of electrical lighting is prohibited during official exhibit hours.
3. Photography and video recording outside normal hours of operation are not permitted without prior approval of show management.
4. Third-party contractor must be registered as a SNA-Exhibitor-Appointed Contractor (EAC) and provide valid Certificates of Insurance (COIs). Upon SNA approval, exhibit hall access credentialing process will be shared with third-party contractor.
5. If recording takes place outside of the exhibiting company’s assigned exhibit space, a film escort will be required and provided by SNA. Exhibiting companies will be invoiced at the rate of $85/hour for the film escort. There is a 4- hour minimum.
