Hi,

I'd like to record a Sims movie and use it, but I'm not sure how the copyrights and legality will apply. Does anyone know what are the rules?

Thanks.

@AlixAnonyme Hi,

Rumbutter is correct, check this article for details: http://help.ea.com/en/article/how-to-request-permission-for-ea-games-content/

Essentially EA is not able to provide a blanket permission to use our copyrighted game footage. We have advised YouTube that EA generally does not object to fair uses of video footage or screen shots from publicly released versions of our copyrighted games, including on YouTube channels which are commercialized, but that we reserve rights to address inappropriate use of our copyrighted content.

I hope that helps.

Cheers,

Nils
