Screw Loose Change off Google Video

Nope, they are the same. I took out the old Screw Loose Change video. It does not exist anymore.

But this is new.
 
I just popped them an email to see what this is about, although I have a feeling I know the answer.

They also rejected my Obsession upload (I even contacted the makers of the film, who are fans of Screw Loose Change and tried to upload on Google Video as well), History Channel Humburg Cell, and History Channel Muslim Brotherhood.

that woudl suck, isnt LC supposed to be copyright cleared though?

BTW anyone els enotice this?

Loose Change and Loose Change 2nd Edition were edited on a $1500 Compaq Presario Laptop, using Adobe Premiere Pro 7.0 and After Effects 6.5 (2nd Edition).

The original Loose Change, including the laptop, footage, and other expenses, cost only $2000 to make, and its success is responsible for putting us where they are today.

after the laptop that leaves $500 for other things, an adobe premier liscense costs over $800, after effects about $700

anyone else think they never bought the software?
 
Depends, is there such a thing as an educational edition that is "free for use" ?

By the way, this is my email I got from Google Video.

I call BS, because it was working for TWO weeks.
 
So email them back the exact specs, showing how the video is within guidelines. If they still refuse the video, raise a stink. While Google might well be able to afford litigation, they are likely to come to their senses. They're interested in being popular, after all.

Or, you know, whatever.
 
MarkyX is a shill. Google is all about the troof. That's why the deniers use Google to investigoogle 9/11.

Good thing Screw Loose Change got pulled* from the internet.

* No pun intended.
 
I suspect that the LC boys submitted a complaint that you were using their video, with little else added (Not true as I see it, but maybe this is how they saw it).

I would demand a better explanation of which of those requirements your video fails to meet. Giving you a bunch of possibilities is not fair.

While it is true that is in the movie Bell, I doubt that would stop the LCers from complaining their movie was being used in a way they didn't like.

the ironic thing is you cant give permission to someone to make an unauthorized copy, the moment you do, it becomes authorized, lol

There are posible situations where that would not be the case. certianly claiming that statement is release of copyright would be a rather interesting court case.

Well... before we make ourselves as guilty of jumping to conclusions as the Loosers, we may want to consider there are other possible technical glitches. It's also possible that somebody has threatened legal action or something absurd like that.

I do agree, though, that you deserve a better explanation. Your video has as much right to be there as theirs.

Try to get a living, breathing person on the telephone, if possible...
