Youtube contacted me because they have pulled the Teaser Trailer for Revenge of the Spud as Lucasfilm’s request. I guess they feel it is a DMCA violation.
I don’t know why they’re going after me for this? I’m not a big shot, hardly over 1000 people even saw it. What’s more is that I really do believe it was parody, PARODY! I didn’t use copyrighted music or audio and shot the video myself.
I’ve started asking for advice and we’ll see where this goes. I want to appeal it but I don’t want to fight Lucasfilm and their billion dollar lawyers. Of all the films on the web that violate thier copyrights, why did Lucasfilm pick on me and a parody, something that barely infringes if at all (and I don’t think it does).
