James Marcus Haney

Haney's career as a music photographer and documentary filmmaker began with sneaking into music festivals. In 2010 Haney snuck into Coachella Music Festival by creating a fake wristband and buying a vintage USC camera. The security guards at Coachella took one look at his wristband and camera and let him in. Since then, Haney has snuck into over fifty festivals and events, including Bonnaroo, Glastonbury and The Grammy Awards. Mumford & Sons asked Haney to join their Railroad Revival Tour in 2011 after seeing Haney's documentary Connaroo, which contained footage of their band at Bonnaroo.{{cite web|last1=Goldberg|first1=Haley|title=James Marcus Haney's "Lucky Break" into Rock Films|url=http://www.latimes.com/entertainment/music/la-et-ms-marcus-haney-no-cameras-allowed-20140805-story.html|website=Los Angeles Times|date=August 5, 2014 |accessdate=October 21, 2015}} Within the same year his photo was published in Rolling Stone.{{cite news|last1=Webster|first1=Andy|title=From Gate-Crashing to the Grammys|work=The New York Times |date=August 7, 2014 |url=https://www.nytimes.com/2014/08/08/movies/no-cameras-allowed-a-documentary-by-james-marcus-haney.html|accessdate=October 21, 2015}} His most recent documentary, No Cameras Allowed{{cite web|last1=Donnelly|first1=Matthew Scott|title=Marcus Haney Calls 'No Cameras Allowed' A Field Guide To Playing By Your Own Rules|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/1915019/no-cameras-allowed-marcus-haney-interview/|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140902170511/http://www.mtv.com/news/1915019/no-cameras-allowed-marcus-haney-interview/|url-status=dead|archive-date=September 2, 2014|publisher=MTV News|accessdate=November 3, 2015}} follows his adventures of sneaking into festivals.
