McFADDEN, Judge.
Joshua McLaurin filed a petition and supporting brief requesting permission to make video recordings of the July 15,2013 and July 18,2013 criminal calendar proceedings in the Alcovy Judicial Circuit. After an extended colloquy, the trial court denied the petition, and McLaurin filed this appeal.1 Because the trial court erred in his application of OCGA § 15-1-10.l,thestatute setting out the factors to be considered when determining whether to allow video recording in a courtroom, we vacate that decision and remand.
