Reward Program
The "Take Action" reward program provides up to $500.00 in qualifying cases to theatre employees who identify patrons illegally recording a movie.To be eligible for a reward, five actions must be taken:
- Identify a person operating a video camera or other recording device to copy a movie in a theatre
- Immediately notify the police
- Stop the recording before the movie ends
- File a police report, and
- Contact the CMPDA within 24 hours of the incident ((800) 371-9884).
The theatre employee who identifies the person operating the recording device is the person eligible to receive a reward, even though that employee likely worked with theatre management, theatre security, and/or local police to complete the other four required actions. The grant of any reward or other incentive issued by the CMPDA, MPTAC and/or the joint Theatrical Camcorder Reward Program, including the amount or form of such reward or other incentive, is made at the sole discretion of the CMPDA and MPTAC.
