Videos Taken Off Youtube?

Post by Zac »

im not exactly quite sure what topic this belongs in but change it to the right one if nescesary please.
my movie with just random blood fx has been taken off youtube for "content inapropriate". has this happened to anyone else? i mean sure, its a pretty bloody clip. but theres thousands of other gory clips, and also ones with craploads of swearing in them and stuff.
i tried to upload it again but it said "rejected due to duplicate upload", so im trying to work my way round it. if this keeps up and youtube really start to crack down on videos with violence and stuff i think we may need to find another good video sharing site.
just wondering if its happened to anyone else too?

Thats sucks.
I agree, i mean, its fake blood, and its clearly labeled that. The biggest thing they should have done is made it 18+. Someone probably reported the clip.

yeh i would've been perfectly happy if they simply put it as 18+, i can understand that. but completely take it off? c'mon.

There might be an email address you can appeal to (there was when I uploaded some BBC footage that was taken down)

Failing that, try extending the clip, or mirroring/grading the footage so it's different to what you uploaded last time

I had one video taken down, but it had actual footage of people dead and being killed.

I also just had a first on YouTube, someone posted a video of mine on their profile. Thankfully I had my name embedded in the video, and thankfully they just took it off.

Not really since I'm perfect and better than everyone else, so I'm allowed to contradict myself and still be right because that's how I roll.

yeh im trying that, i re-exported it at a slightly different quality and name. still uploading.
I had one video taken down, but it had actual footage of people dead and being killed.
but thats of people actually being killed, thats not that suprising if it got taken off. but mine is fake, not that i think its that bad. but its clearly set up to be fake, its not even like ive tried to make it a real killing. im trying to contact them about it now.

I know, I'm just saying that's the reason why I had something pulled. Which stills seems horribly stupid when I can still find these... and they had more views than I did.

Be a REBEL! That's what gets things changed. Either you ask Youtube to reconsider, go along with their initial choice, or choose a different site for your more "graphic" clips. Maybe iFilm or some other place. That's pretty much all you CAN do.
