I have seen Giuliani and Powell speak before. Neither one allows flash photography during their speeches. Why? |
I assume for "courteous" reasons or more importantly, securty measures. Part of it may be due to distraction. Also if the event is being televised, the flashes can cause problems for the television cameras, as the glare can obscure the person speaking. Probably for the same reason that other people do, When a lightbulb goes off, it flashblinds the speaker for a few minutes, and since many speakers don't memorize their speeches, they'd not be able to talk until they could see again. I could see how it would be distracting. Also if they are using a teleprompter the light from the flash would reflect off the glass, momentarily preventing them from seeing their speech. Security is a prime concern but if you have ever been on stage with flash photography going off it is very distracting and quite annoying. I don't know. I supect they are aliens from another planet and they have lizard eyes that show for a second when the flash goes off. Sorry my tin foil hat fell off just now. I don't really believe in aliens from other planets. Honest I don't. well the flash of the camera can do horribly for your skin. in pictures Have you ever tried to speak with people taking pictures of you? Its incredibly distracting and very annoying. The people with cameras can wait til the speaker is done. |
