I have been wanting to do some YouTube for some time now. The content is supposed to go in the Minecraft direction. But since I have no desire to produce 0815 videos, I decided to make Minecraft films. Now my question is whether I can make nasty now? I will of course not steal anything from the previous works, so to speak, I build my own backdrop and write my own texts. The only thing that is taken over are different scenes that I'm re-enacting, so to speak, would that be allowed or do I expect a consequence?
I think if you play a movie in Minecraft nobody will get upset.
No, the idea of a film is intellectual property of the Earth Indian. But honestly, there's so much fan fiction and fan movies, you really have nothing to fear as long as you do not make the product bad in your films. Companies see this more than advertising…
No, unless you get a permit.
You have to distance yourself visibly. I don't think that whoever is suing would then be a weighing decision.
Your version, inspired by XY, would at least be appropriate in the credits.
There are about a million films in which the same love snout is repeated in the same way, but with different actors and different dialogues and different story details. The makers of the first love snout would have no chance to take legal action against it.
You can and may be inspired by other works. Especially in the field of art, like filmmaking, more is allowed than, for example, in trademark law.
There are countless works, in which "Based on the story of somebody by somebody" is added. Precisely because the new story is based more or less loosely on it, but it does not correspond exactly.
In the end, as you write, you have your own texts and your own story. A scene that resembles another is not a copyright infringement.
But on the contrary. There are filmmakers who deliberately recreate certain scenes from other works, mostly as a tribute to this scene and the creators behind it. As a self-interpretation of a thing that you appreciate or that impressed you.
