Hi guys,
I just created my AdSense account and linked it to my YouTube account. However, my idea for videos in the area of film reviews puts me into a bit of a tricky position, as I would like to show screencaps/pics from the film while narrating, but I'm not sure if that would count as a copyright breach. I've had to delete all my walkthroughs of video games in case I get into trouble there aswell. So, I guess my question in the simplest form is; what kind of media can I use in my videos without film and game companies knocking on my door?
