Hey everyone!
So I just completed a short film and there's one scene where the boy in the film is watching the classic Frankenstein film. It's only about 10 seconds of screen time tops. If we don't distribute this or profit from it and it's only used for festival screenings, can we still use the footage? Or do we have to have it cleared? I keep hearing varying things from different people ranging from all sides of the filmmaking spectrum.
Any help would be much appreciated! Thanks!
