I'm not sure how drones taking pictures and video of movie sets has anything to do with piracy, but the headline on this article was just too god to pass up. "Piracy is the enemy of new content," said Michael Grade, the chairman of Pinewood, speaking at a Broadcasting Press Guild lunch. "It is a very damaging prospect and security is a major element. We have got an exercise now going on about how to counter drones and cameras. It's lovely to have Star Wars, it's lovely to have James Bond. The key thing is to keep the big Hollywood studios who fund these pictures coming back."
