I'll watch it, but with a fast forward button at the ready.

We were there accidentally while they were filming and every day we were somewhere where they ended up filming. A few times it meant being re-routed, but honestly other than stopping to peek at celebrities (most of whom we didn't know, lol) and hearing Garth Brooks and Trisha Yearwood do a sound check, it really didn't impact our trip at all. We were only there 4 days and had FPs so we couldn't move our days around if we wanted to. Seriously, we were fine (2 adults and a 12-year old).
Everyone understands the meaning of 'Filming' - shooting, not so much.

Times change - so does the English language. I don't blame people for using the wrong term. But it's time for people to start using the right one.

I disagree with everything you say.
And as sensitive as our culture has gotten about guns, someone could be emotionally scarred by using the term “shooting”.

UP NEXT AT 5: Emotionally Scared by the term "shooting"? See the new term victims of overt special snowflake sensitivity recommend we use when taking photographs or videos.

A few things to note:
1) The parade hasnt been shown live in years! There was no way to do this when they started to include Disneyland. The park wouldn’t even be open by that time of the morning.
2) Filming will take place in all of the WDW parks. Just as it did last year.
3) Regular guests can attend these tapings. The tickets for cast members get them into the parks at designated times. If a regular guest is in the park at that time, they can line up to get into the taping area.

Hi! I’ve been to the tapings a few years in quite a few of the parks. These performances never cause an impact to guest flow. There’s plenty of walkways around them. ALSO, I would encourage you to go and look. I’ve seen Mary J. Blige, Justin Bieber, Demi Lovato, and Kelly Clarkston to name a few. The talent is usually quite awesome!

Then perhaps the "right one" might best be the most accurate and descriptive, which would be "recording" -- as they are making a "record" or "recording" of the event, on whatever media is used.
But you must understand that the language evolves, adapting and co-opting things as it goes. "Filming" is a much more broadly understood term for "recording the image on a visual media" than "shooting" by itself is. Even though it might be technically correct, it can also be misunderstood and misquoted. What would you think most people would think happened if they saw the headline, "Shooting Took Place at Walt Disney World Yesterday"?
So, since the point of language is to communicate effectively, I think that you are more likely to see "Filming Took Place at Walt Disney World" than the other, at least for public consumption. Now, in a video production trade magazine, that may be completely different.

it all boils down to individual tastes...either you go and enjoy the parks with little impact from filming or you go and deal with the filming and let it ruin your day? Its good to see behind the scenes if you are into that kinda stuff, but if you're not...just go on like nothing is happeneing and adjust!
#1) what is your definition of the word “Live” ? when Disney Blog and other YouTuber did a Live Stream last year on the Computer they did it from the curb in front of the train station. I am waiting to hear if Disney Blog will do it again this year. Love that I got to see the parade at 9pm at night.
