The answer

There is no harm in working with documentary films that record useful information for Muslims, or in photographing what the Muslim community needs, whether it be still photography or video, because many contemporary scholars have permitted it. However, anything that includes prohibited elements, such as recording documents harmful to Muslims or photographing something forbidden, is unlawful.
