the larger issue will be what you then say about the developer. filming in public, of things that are public, except where explicit invasion of privacy is concerned, is generally OK. (though this varies country to country of course, but I'd think in your case in the US filming in public is OK, but as I mentioned, what you then go on to say is where the pointy end of media law might matter).
