Well I once upon a time in a glaxie far far away worked in a police crime lab and a short time as a cop. Most of what we did like that was intimidation.
"I would like that pizza you are carrying into that deserted house," kind of thing.
Now if they were on a piece of property with a posted no trespassing sign you first ask, "You did see the no tresspassing sign right?"
"Duh no officer, I am parked right in front of it but I didn't see it."
"Well tell you what, let me have the film you just shot of the power plant, and you can go."
"Hey you can't take my damn film...I know my rights."
"Good cause...You have the right to remain silent."
Now that's intimidation. It's also criminal trespass. So if you are in violation of an ordinance give them the film. You might not have to, but it beats hell of a night in the slammer while they do a background check on you,"
You can put up a fuss in a public area about your film, you most likely will get to go back stage but it won't be to meet the star, it will be for causing a disturbance. Minor thing but enough inconvenience that you will gladly give them the film next time.
If you are legally in a place and not in violation of any law or ordinance just ask. "Why do you want my film, there are no nikkid people on it. You will be bored silly."
Most likely they have a reason, but sometimes just a rent a cop with an attitude problem trying to enforce a rule that makes no sense. But he is also mostly like doing his job. You might want to remember that the client of the rent a cop's company made the rules. The rent a cop is most likely doing his job. The company who owns the property most likely has a battery of lawyers. They could still be on legally shakey ground but my bet is you are on worse.
A concert ticket purchase also is an agreement to follow the rules they set up. If the rule was no camera your choice was simple give them the film or leave. I can't see walking away from an Elton JOhn concert as much loss but you probably would.
Probably not legal advice but common sense.
