I don't think AES or IATSE would have anything to do with this.
They're not asking for free engineering. They're suggesting a simple
recording of a sound as an example so they can hear if it's
appropriate, and can then send out a professional crew to record it. I
don't think they're looking for a once-in-a-lifetime sound in your
library, though if you have something they can use and the recording
quality is up to their standards, they might be interested in
licensing or purchasing it from you.

Some people get suspicious of the darnedest things. Must be the subway
bombing paranoia, extended.
