Hello,
I'd like to use a popular song for the trailer of my feature film. It is too much to pay for it. What would be the repercussions if I simply used it without getting the rights? This is only for the trailer on youtube. Would it be a case of simply taking the trailer down or would the copyright owners go beyond that?
It's a very low budget movie but it has quite a few recognizable names so people may thing it's a bigger budget than it is.
Any info is much appreciated.
Thanks
Vik
