, who did not attend Coachella, stitched together about 150 videos uploaded by concertgoers to YouTube, TikTok and Twitter to make an unofficial, multi-cut film that accounts for the entirety of Ocean’s set, which spanned about one hour and 20 minutes. Kinnes launched his film online Tuesday and, that same day, received a cease and desist order from entertainment company AEG, demanding that Kinnes “remove and destroy all audio and video content […] of musical performances from the Festival.
“I’m not concerned with any legal repercussions because I do not plan on making a single penny from it,” Kinnes toldin an interview prior to receiving the cease and desist. “I will continue to upload it in places that [Ocean’s] legal team will not be able to find. I don’t know if I should tell that to a reporter… but it deserves to exist online.”
“I’m just combining what’s already publicly available,” Kinnes says of the film. “Essentially, [AEG’s] claims are pretty frivolous and almost completely baseless.”
