What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? Arizona

At my previous job as an auto mechanic we did work for another business by installing their parts. While doing the installation they recorded every step to be used for installation instructions and advertisement of those parts. It was done on the clock for and at the shop I worked for at the time but recorded for another business. I never gave them consent to have me in the video and opposed having the film crew there while working. It was a major safety concern for not just myself but the camera crew. The videos are on youtube and on the other business' website. Now that I am no longer an employee of the shop I worked and was never an employee of the other business I would like any video of me removed from their website and youtube. I am not looking for any lawsuit settlement or money exchanged. I simply would like the videos removed. I feel that I need legal proof that they are not allowed to have them displayed without my consent.

There are also videos and photographs for the shop I worked at that they also use for video advertisement. As an employee of that company while at work does that give them legal consent to record video used for advertisement? Now that I am no longer an employee of that company do they still have the right to continue to use images of me in their advertisement?

I was not fired or laid off, I quit under my own will.
