As if he asked anyone for permission
The 10-20 seconds that you see families walking on the street was done on a shabbos. I can bet he didn't even get out of his car so no one saw him.
Otherwise it would be very obvious and people would've asked him why he is doing it.
The rest of it was done at huge Rebbishe weddings. He didn't have to ask for permission really.

Seems like drone footage.
In Williamsburg it's very common to see people filming, especially on shabbos. No one ever says anything to them, it's no big deal.

There’s a longer trailer, not much longer, I just found that shows him in homes. No faces are shown so I’m assuming they asked for their faces not to be shown but it’s such a small clip that I don’t know. If people in KJ did participate, I think that’s really great. We get so many documentaries of OTD people. It’ll be nice to see a documentary with Chassidim who are happy amd satisfied with their lives.

I watched this documentary when it was shown at a film festival. He has interviews with several people in the community, amd footage of them interacting with their families, and was allowed to participate in events in order to get the film done.
The film focuses mainly on the conflict between KJ and its surrounding neighborhoods regarding property and land zoning, but gives some in depth looks at the lives of the people, most of them positive.

Is there a local law in KJ forbidding photography?

What is the point if this video?
Does it show chassidim in a bad light?
Why did he make reference to crown heights? Nothing to do with satmar in the least bit!

He became interested in insular Chassidic communities when he moved to Crown Heights.
If you are interested in insular Chassidic communities - and want to learn more - KJ is a good one.
If you make your parnassah as a film producer - you marry your interest (if you are lucky) or what other people are interested in - find a story in it - and make a movie.
His story was 'what happens when this insular community needs more space'.
