very pleased with the public received an email from my friend and colleague Andrea Staccioli.
I think there are interesting proposals.
With a polemical, though, and with a bit of disappointment, I say that cause I regret that on this web log there are no comments yet well established and colleagues often do not miss a chance to boast of their work. I think that their comments are necessary to the ultimate end of the matter, which is a common goal: to work better.
Here's the email Andrea Staccioli
I will try 'to go with order as the topics to be addressed are many and varied.
The new rules of the Football League, which will come 'into force on 9 November, introduces some new features while leaving uncovered a few points that we professionals are very much at heart.
The most interesting and striking is the kick up the list of photographers, an opportunity to exploit.
requirements.
According to the current regulation to newspapers and news agencies just a declaration that the applicant engaged in the business as a professional photographer on their behalf. This means you can, in fact, also let photographers who do not have the requirements but to everyone else? (Note that at the end of the fifth paragraph is written alternately)
Same thing for the football club for the photographers of the club.
Alternatively we are required
- Original certificate of registration of newspapers or, alternatively, a certified copy of registration to the Chamber of Commerce. * 1 * Apart from that I think the certificate of registration of journalists is nothing more than the card of the Order (at least I am not in possession of any certificate) and then send the original seems to me impossible ** the alternative condition can not 'be only the Chamber of Commerce. The photojournalist does not require registration with the Chamber of Commerce to exercise its activities but, on the edge of the certificate of VAT that andreabbe supported the alternative requirements to pass the order (of course with appropriate activity code).
- Copy of insurance policy etc.. for any damage caused by us. I think this is an appropriate request, but we should ask to make public the rules (certainly existing) between the Football League and stadium owners which regulates liability for damage caused to us.
Rules
4) "accredited photographers will occupy within the grounds of games, strictly, to their assigned duty station" located behind the goals. not less than 3.5 m from the goal line with a connection. "etc etc. All right, we must be on the short side, but the short side is ours.
- No company shall prohibit any position ourselves on the short sides because they are otherwise not visible advertising
- The short sides must be clear of nonessential personnel at that location, or beside us or behind us (in the big stages we must be able to turn back to photograph the celebrations under the curve without the players are surrounded by different humanity)
- The short sides have to be viable and clear of debris, potholes, rotor or whatever.
If there can be no guarantee in full the short sides of the societies will have crossed the use of other photographic equivalent positions (long side up to 11 meters, etc.) as well as in European competitions
"It 's absolutely photographers may not enter the field of play at any moment. " Sacrosanct. We demand that this prohibition is extended to everyone. We photographers from the sidelines but we should not have the visual covered by anyone who is not a player, coach or referee, however, a figure that is essential to stay in the camp before, during and after the game.
"Photographs and the teams lined up in groups before the start of the races, should be taken outside the sideline of the field of play behind the boundaries specially prepared by the company. "
This statement should be amended to include, in addition to the teams lined up and in the group, even heating of the teams before the game and specifically stating that the boundaries provided by the company should be placed at the midfield (I forbid you ever go to midfield before the game?)
7 ) "The LNP also reserves the right to make the listing the payment of a deposit "
What good 'as we are insured?
11)" .. Companies are obliged to immediately inform the LNP of the detected violations of order, pass on the relevant documentation.
We must have the communication tools to report violations to the league that are made against us or which we realize.
The People
In recent years many times you tried, unsuccessfully, to create associations of photographers football. The reasons why you have not succeeded are different and I'm not the best person shown to exhibit them.
However there are other associations with different forms and modalities, and all or most of them, try to represent the needs of their members or category.
do not need another association, the association is the same list.
The Football League, creating a list of photographers in it, makes an important recognition for us. De facto recognition of our professional and governing access to stadiums. It will be up to us to try to amend any inaccuracies in the regulation of autogarantirci and ensure compliance with the rules (and from us) and our professionalism.
elect representatives in the list. These representatives will be the interface of photographers to the LNP. They are the applications for amendment of the regulation, compliance, reporting abuse. Each football field of the LNP could then have "local representative", always on the list, which could meet the demands and specific problems (we all know that working in Milan, Rome and Reggio Calabria is not the same thing, for better or worse).
credit problems, problems of availability, security etc.., The general and specific will be able to find their cash resonance and go directly to the rightful recipients, by us, by our representatives without further mediation. What better photographers association that protects the football?
course other problems remain open.
* 1 * Just a clarification, not to be confused with what is written above: There is a certificate of registration, which in some cases but not in others you pay at the discretion of the Regional Council which is targeted .**
