so i've been making tv shows / movies
commentary , reaction
video things
for a little over a year and a half
at this point
and i'm sure you most of you just watch the video
you know maybe a movie
or a tv show
you liked when you were a kid , or maybe you never heard of it and you're curious oh whatever
anyway
you had a couple laugh ( i hope )
and then you go
but behind the scenes
there actually a lot of stuffs going on
and i never really talk much about
now if you've been watching Youtube
from really any length of time
you can probably imagine
the kind of shenanigans i have to deal with like
you know copyright claims
legal issues
stan retaliations
you know just all kind of SUPER fun stuff
so this week I thought i would pull the curtain back just a little bit and
and tell you bout some of the tv shows and movies and stuff that
for one reasons of another
I CAN'T talk about
now Teen wolf was one of the earliest
animated video i ever did
back on my channel was kinda just first taken off
like i think i had less than a hundred anf fifty thousands subcribers at that point
so i made that Teen wolf video
and this is my introduction to the wonderful world
VIACOM! (dun, dun, dunnn)
Pew pew pew (epic noises)
Lets like tangent for a second here
in making these video i learnt a lot about how differences
the companies handle copyright fair use on youtube
now the term " fair use " get starting out a lot on the Internet
and in a perfect world would actually you know mean something
but the truth is fair use is just a defense not like a clear cut law
so what that mean is there's really no
set perimeter as to what is or
is not fair use. You know like how much footage from a TV show
Is okay to use or how many seconds of a song you can use
Before UMG claims your video.
which btw the answer is
-1 second because they'll claim your video if
you so much as say the name of the song
and let me tell you
Fair use, transformative content, review, analysis.
Ha! Viacom don't care. So yeah almost immediately after I posted
my teen wolf video. they completely blocked it in the US
And all US territories. so if u're outside the US or if you
have any internet saviness at all
You can still watch it. although like i said... You know its like my earliest
animated videos i ever did so its probably not worth watching
You know what i'm saying? But heres the thing, because Viacom
Owns so many companies i had to be real careful
about what shows or movies they talk about, for eg. Viacom
Owns Paramount pictures and paramount pictures
is the distributor of a little movie you may have heard of called
Mean Girls. now i get messages at least a couple times a week,
asking why i haven't done Mean Girls yet and the answer is
ehh you know if i did
There's a pretty good chance it would just get blocked anyway. but i mean still
Never say never... we'll see. Now this brings me to another fun
adventure i had sometime ago, when i made a video
about the original charmed. So recently the CW came out
with a new remake of charmed and i
thought it might be kinda fun. You know, to watch the original show from the 90's
well you know who didn't think that was so fun, CBS
lets just play a little game, what do you think CBS did when I posted my video?
A: claim the video
B: block the video
or C: file a DMCA takedown of the video
that's right kids the answer is..
D: their legal team sent me an email telling me to take down the video
yeah this has maybe like the weirdest experience I've had so far
usually companies will just claim the videos or UMG
will claim the sound of someone breathing or
