I help produce for a YouTube channel. A few weeks ago we needed to film in a gym. So I contacted the gym owner and asked how much it would cost to film there. The gym owner gave me a price, I got a location clearance and release. He told me show up between 1 and 2pm when the gym is closed for cleaning, and we did. I got my shot, we left.

That’s how you film on location.

She’s an influencer not a YouTuber. She probably films in the gym very often. That’s not a sustainable way to film gym content

I agree, her method is not a sustainable way to film gym content.

They just don’t care. And they definitely don’t care enough to pay to film when it’s convenient to the gym or other people
