Photography notes
Jodhpur RIFF offers excellent documentary opportunities around Rajasthan's folk musicians, traditional dance, instruments, costumes, backstage preparation and interactions between artists and audiences. The Mehrangarh Fort setting also allows strong environmental compositions. The festival schedule includes dawn performances at Jaswant Thada, folk performances at Mehrangarh, traditional dance forms and evening concerts. However, professional/semi-professional photography, videography, recording and flash photography are officially prohibited at RIFF events and venues. Therefore, photographers should treat this primarily as a cultural research/visitor experience unless they obtain specific permission from the festival.
