for the last time about the fansite bts videos since people don't seem to understand what they're talking about and spreading straight up nonsense
- ALL the footage is official in that it was filmed by staff on set with consent of the actors who knew they were being filmed and anything filmed on set could end up being released to the public (xz and yb literally talk to the cameramen in several clips so i dont even know how people got the idea that they were ignorant of the filming)
- the actors dont seem to have had too much of a say on what was released and what wasn't. that was in the hands of directors and crew and likely details were discussed as part of their contract as they started filming
- after the initial bts releases and the 160 extended version, nda expires and so what's essentially hundreds of hours of footage is left to either rot on a harddrive or go to people who want it
- fansites pay really high prices for the footage and then share the content for free with the stipulation that no one reposts on other platforms.
- the footage is 80% the same footage that's been officially released, just either extended or filmed from another angle. others are videos from photos that had been previously released. so idk if you're thinking people are buying makeout footage or some sort of scandalous heavy petting but it's p much the exact same stuff we've seen already
- so no, none of this is footage that's going to endanger anyones career or anything people are being really dramatic. one bought hotsearch popped up regarding one clip and it was swept under the rug the same day bc it was hardly worth caring about & it was a pretty obvious clickbait attempt cause yb was shirtless. now go calm down and drink some tea
