>unlikely, it's independent work that may contain some copyrighted designs but not anything copied directly of the original film, so the content-id won't detect it.

That is incredibly naive.

Content ID has been picking up things as innocuous as applause at the end of an entirely novel recording as being copyright infringement.




do you have a reference for that? (not that i don't believe you, but i'd like to read that story and share it as a good example how bad this system is)

given the amount of star trek fan-films on youtube (there are thousands, literally) spurious takedowns would be noticeable. so i don't think i am naive here. as long as all your sound and images are original or from a creative commons source a takedown should be unlikely. (that doesn't mean it can't happen though)

greetings, eMBee.

There's also examples like this, about a Star Wars fan film, where Warner claimed that silence infringed on their music copyright! https://www.wired.com/story/the-star-wars-video-that-baffled...
