Here's what came down the pipe from Martin Whiteley, Trek World Racing Team Manager, regarding video coverage from 2010 World Championships at Mont Sainte Anne. I don't know how this affects editorial videos (like MTBcut and Dirt), but I would assume the 3 minute max applies...will keep you posted.
-------------
Here are the conditions for the filming / accreditation at the 2010 UCI MTB & Trials World Championships for video operators who film for the MTB Trade teams:
- Maximum of 3 min per discipline
- Filming only on last 100 meters of the courses before the finish lines, - podium, interviews in mixed zone (not in the finish bowl, winner interviews not before the Host Broadcaster Flash Interview)
- Availability world-wide
- Upload not earlier than 5 hrs after the end of the race
- Price 800 Euro per website respectively the operator (if one operator supplies different websites or teams he has to pay related to the number of websites he is supplying, e.g. one operator films for "team A" & "team B" = 2 Trade Teams = € 1’600)
-You can have images from the seeding run / qualifications (which are part of the competitions) but this as well not longer than 3 minutes per discipline. After the finals the 5 hours rule applies.

-Cameras must be shot left-eye style.
-Release waivers must be signed by every fan appearing in your backgrounds.
-No fun having.
-Parkin brothers must wear two-man horse costume. Ass end to be determined by rock/paper/scissors, best two out of three.
Gumbos!
don't it just make ya smiiiiile when greedy people make great rules because they can?
me too.
i'm sneakin in with an iphone & a helmetcam in my afro wig.
But I hope this doesn't apply to the guys making end of year films and other projects.

people always do the opposite of what you say.. so look out for bootlegs yeeehaww haha
@theo: let's get some sniper camouflage and hide in the mountain
Do they want our sport to go anywhere at all?
The more coverage the better I say.
The UCI have gone and negotiated these improved terms for the teams. As a team owner, I can live with this because all you fans will still get to see the footage from Freecaster, and various TV channels, and we can still make our behind the scenes videos, which rarely uses more than a few minutes of finals footage. (The talented Parkins may still be obligated to wear the horse outfit).
So don't hate on the UCI too much, they are tryting to do the right thing by everyone (and as usual confuse many and piss off most by accident).
