Hey everyone.
So I'm an intermediate photographer who's been photographing for a year and a half now. I enjoy landscape, cityscape, nature and portrait photography. I'm planning on buying a Macro lens soon because I really fell in love with Macro photography. Anyways I've always wanted to try photography at events whether if they're sports, music or any entertainment events like comic con and monster jam. I was wondering in order to go and photograph these events, do I need a specific certification or qualification card to enter them as a photographer only or do I just enter and start taking pictures?
For example if I want to photograph an ACDC concert and would like to take pictures of the band backstage, what kind of permission do I need? Do I need to work for a specific magazine or the band itself? Another example is if I want to photograph a soccer/football matches worldwide how do I do it? Again do I need to work for a specific newspaper or just have a permission card? If so, are there any photography permission cards that serve me worldwide at any event?
