Hi,
I love to video record things at Disneyland as one of my hobbies. I do upload them on Youtube, but I'm not a vlogger or live streamer. And I don't do this for money. What concerns me is this. I've heard Tokyo Disneyland banned vloggers and live streamers. Here's the proof: https://chipandco.com/tokyo-disneyl...d-live-streaming-from-the-theme-parks-494495/ And now, I'm worried if this will happen here in Disneyland California and I can't video record Disneyland anymore. So, I'm wandering, am I still allowed to video record things at Disneyland? Again, I'm not a vlogger or a live streamer. I video record things for meeting characters, parades, and shows. And sometimes rides depending.
 
I'm not sure if this is rhetorical, but yea, you can still record stuff at Disneyland Anaheim. But, yes I'm sure Disney will eventually crack down on vloggers that make money off their image.

If that’s the case, thank you. You’re more reassuring then WDWMagic.

This is a story with wrong information that many English blogs keep running.

All the Disney parks have had verbiage on their website banning commercial photography for years but never enforced anything against vlogging. Recently, Tokyo Disneyland added a single line related to "commercial activities" that many Japanese people speculate was in anticipation of resellers buying up new Linabell merchandise for resale purposes. Some Japanese sites and Twitter users asked if this would affect Youtubers and OLC specifically clarified that nothing about their policy has changed. But for some reason, a bunch of English language blogs started reporting that Tokyo Disneyland banned vlogging and that the wording against commercial photography is new. It's not.

I see this as a sword that Disney likes to use to threaten influencers who say things they don't like. I've noticed at least one Youtube video expressing frustrations about the Magic Keys which had many views that was later taken down. If your Youtube channel doesn't say anything negative about Disney, you should be fine. But what Disney sees as negative is very broad so just saying that an area of the parks doesn't have enough shade can be enough to elicit a response from Disney.
 

I don't think they could effectively ban video recording, not with video cameras in everyone's pocket :) Nor would they if they could, promotes the park too much. Vloggers promote Disneyland, get invited to media events, and some get paid promotions from Disney. Not going anywhere anytime soon.
