Performer Video Access & Use Guidelines
All videos captured during VTBF events are owned by VTBF, in accordance with the signed performer media release. This structure allows us to protect the integrity of the work on our stages while supporting our artists in sharing and promoting their brilliance beyond the festival.
________________________________
The VTBF Promise
Out of respect for our performers:
-
VTBF will not intentionally publish a performer’s full act publicly in its entirety without additional direct consent.
-
VTBF will not intentionally publish images or video stills publicly that show pasties or exposed nipples without additional direct written consent.
VTBF works with staff, contractors, and volunteers. While we strive for careful oversight, inadvertent postings may occasionally occur.
If you believe content has been shared in a way that does not align with this policy, please notify us promptly. VTBF will review the matter and make reasonable efforts to remove or modify the content in a timely manner.
________________________________
Performer Publication Rights
Once you receive your media, you are welcome to publish your full performance video or any images — including content featuring pasties — at your own discretion.
Performers may also submit their VTBF performance video to other festivals, producers, booking agents, or venues and may authorize those parties to use the media to promote the performer’s participation or artistic work.
Media may not be resold, commercially licensed for unrelated third-party use, or submitted to stock platforms without written permission from VTBF.
