I can't win. A new copyright claim just rolled in on a video that exclusively contains screenshots from a trailer. ZERO footage. Can SOMEBODY at @TeamYouTube or @YTCreators step up for once do their job?pic.twitter.com/ENPuMJqBgx

Appeal the claim and you should be fine
You’d think but I get denied 100% of the time.
Do you fill out the form correctly and clearly state why it’s not copyright infringement? I generally repeal these kinda claims pretty simply through the appeal process. A 100% failure rate seems crazy
Yeah, I do. Talk about using it in a transformative way, talk about it being newsworthy, etc. They deny it within an hour and then I don't dispute a second time because I don't want a strike on my channel.
Damn. Seems like the best solution is to not use screenshots at all if you want to be able to monetise your videos
I make videos about horror movies and tv shows. Only reason I use screenshots is because small clips from trailers get claimed. Can't make videos without showing what I'm talking about.
You can defo make videos without showing what you’re talking about. Although I understand your apprehension to doing so, it is very possible.
Like sure I could film my tv screen as b roll or something, yes. But the point / fact of the matter is that the way I’m using screenshots is covered under fair use law and YouTube does nothing about companies abusing the system.
Yeah it’s defo fair use if you have commentary over it etc. And it’s a crappy situation. I’m just trying to provide some helpful advice you can use to continue forward despite this BS. It’s your channel so of course it’s up to you what you do in the end. I wish you all the best!

thanks, man. Appreciate the conversation!
