DISCLAIMERS

Project Acceptance Policy

At Boars Hill Press, we strive to produce high-quality book trailers that faithfully represent your work. However, due to the limitations of available stock footage, there may be some discrepancies between the book and the final trailer. These discrepancies may include differences in the physical characteristics of main characters, location settings, and other visual elements. As we are sure you have experienced when seeing your favorite works of art on the big screen, adaptations often involve some changes. We reserve the right to accept or decline project requests based on our assessment of these limitations and our standards for the end product. Our goal is to deliver a trailer that represents your work in its purest form, within the constraints of the resources at our disposal.

Licensing and Content ID

Please be aware that while we hold the necessary licenses for all content used in our projects from reputable media libraries, YouTube’s automated systems may still flag videos with copyright claims due to the Content ID system. This system is designed to protect the rights of artists and creators whose work is licensed for use.

These claims can usually be resolved by submitting the appropriate license documentation to YouTube. This is a standard practice across the industry and not something to be alarmed about. We understand it can be inconvenient, but it ensures that artists are properly credited and compensated for their work.

In the event of a YouTube copyright claim, we offer two solutions:

  1. We can handle the claim process for you by uploading the video to our site and managing the license verification directly.
  2. We can sublicense the rights to you at no extra charge, allowing you to dispute the claim yourself with the necessary documentation.

Our aim is to provide a seamless experience while upholding the integrity and rights of content creators.

Thank You!
