Dear Friends,

As some of you know, I've been working with Svetlana Mintcheva of the
National Coalition Against Censorship (NCAC) to craft a letter in
response to the regulations under consideration by the Mayor's Office.

I'm sure most of you are also aware that there are a number of
individuals and organizations, (the New York Civil Liberties Union
for one), who are also suggesting appropriate actions. The initial
regulations proposed by the Mayor's Office seem unrealistic, hard to
enforce, and potentially stifling to filmmakers and photographers in
New York, as well as to have serious, negative, first amendment
consequences.

I have attached the letter to this email. You can also download the letter
at:

http://ncac.org/NYCfilmphotorestrictions.pdf

If you agree and would like to sign it, please contact Svetlana
Mintcheva at NCAC.



Please include your name, professional affiliation and city of
residence to be added to the letter. We will send the letter out by
end of this week, July 27, 2007. The deadline for comments by the
Mayor's Office is August 3rd and we want to send the letter to them
before that.

We feel that the more options that the Mayor's office receives, the
better the likelihood they will make a decent decision.

Thanks for your time. & please feel free to circulate the letter.

Sincerely,
Marshall Reese

p.s. sorry about cross-postings.
