Photography / videography

There will be a photographer all day on Day 1, and for the first half of Day 2.

Additionally, all talks on Day 1 will be filmed for sharing on the Bennett Institute website. If you would prefer not to be photographed / filmed, please let us know.

The video team might ask a few people for very brief interviews on camera. These will probably happen during the breaks, and will only take a few minutes. You’ll be asked very simple questions.
