Photo credentials will be issued only to accredited photographers on assignment. Video and still photographers may shoot from designated areas located throughout the facility. Special accommodations can be made for photographers interested in shooting outside of these areas, but the Thunder reserves the right to deny any special requests. The Thunder also reserves all commercial and non-commercial rights to the use of film, video and still photographs of its athletes, events and facilities.
