problems with making disney's sleeping beauty castle in 3D?
polycounter lvl 17
Hello there,
For my next project I had the idea to recreate the sleeping beauty castle from Disneyland Paris
this one:

however someone warned me that I might not be able to show it in public and (maybe use for my portfolio)
Is it true that Disney doesn't like it when someone re-creates this castle? I really want to make it but if I'm not allowed to show it due to copyright laws or anything related it's of course less fun.
What do you think?

oh and apparently a few others:
Cinderella Castle was inspired by several French castles, most notably Ch
Considering the sleeping beauty castle in Disneyland is already some kind of "set" and because I totally LOVE that building I thought it would be the perfect one to make.
Of course I could "create my own castle" but the project is to re-create an existing one.
My only question is if It would be problematic considering it's one of the main icons of Disney.
My wife is an elementary teacher, and they cannot play Disney movies in class without written permission from Disney...Or they buy license. Disney is stickler about their copyright stuff...
What? How the hell can't you show a movie in an education based environment. I can see parents permission but using Disneys? If you own the movie as you purchased it I don't see how or why you couldn't show it legally.

I guess it's OK as long as I give credit to Disney for the building and use it only to show and not make any money with?
(BTW I also heard a story that teachers couldn't draw a mickey mouse on a class window without permission xD?)
Dunno if you ever read that copyright text etc. at the start of DVDs and videos, but the vast majority of the time they say "only for personal use", they're generally not legally meant to be used in public places without permission, and schools are public places (another one it always says that I found odd, was you're not allowed to show them on oil rigs...)
And as for educational use, materials are licensed for educational use too, at their own choice.
It's up to the rights holder.
I'm sure if you contact the PR dept of every distributor they would say the same thing. Legally they can't change the license over the phone from private to public. In the districts my mom has worked in, each school has a library of movies that has been cleared legally and by the PTA.
There is a difference with all movies between private viewing, public and educational. More then likely some teacher showed something the parents didn't like and the PTA invoked the holy power of the fed. Now the school has to CYA with every movie...
EDIT: opps looks like everyone already covered that.
haha I won't do that
Claim: Disney forced the removal of murals featuring their cartoon figures from the walls of three Florida day care centers.
Status: True.
...be removed for valid business reasons: infringements must be fought in order to keep trademarks intact;
Yeah I know what it says at the start of dvds but it also says do not duplicate and I know you guys have at least 1 copied dvd in your collection.
Honestly Disney is filled with a bunch of pompus asses and would probably be total dicks about something like this.
So why not make something else?
That's the spirit!
