Patreon Update
Added 2024-06-24 12:17:04 +0000 UTCHello everyone, I hope you’re all doing super well 🩷
I wanted to quickly jump on here to discuss future plans in how I make these full length reaction videos for my Patreon.
I’ve been talking with some fellow reactors about the worry and fear of being copyright stricken, especially with how I create reaction videos on here. I, of course, don’t want my Patreon to be taken down or worse case scenario, get fined for copyright infringement.
So this means that for future videos, I’m going to change the way I create them. I think I’ll have to do what others do and turn them into a watch along format with a timer so you can sync up your own copy of the film / tv show. I know this isn’t ideal, it’s not what people want, but it’s what I’ll have to do in order to not get myself in trouble.
I have no clue what to do with my previous videos, I might have to slowly re-upload them all in a watch-along style format as we transition the Patreon into this new way of life. Which could take a lot of time. Sadly, some videos I no longer have the footage for so I may have to delete them all together unless I can figure out a way to fix it/change it. I could potentially upload the videos I can't fix to a Google Drive folder and just share the link, would that work? If you have any ideas, please do let me know!
It’s a bit of a stress and I apologise for this, it sucks, but I want to make sure I don’t get in trouble in the future but also continue to provide you all with great content!
I hope you can understand!
Over and out 😭🩷

I watch full episodes of old America’s Next Top Model on YT with Luxeria, and she just makes the window of the video a little crooked and smaller and she says that’s she gets around the copyright issues. Maybe reach out to her!

2024-06-24 18:14:59 +0000 UTCI may perhaps be worrying or over stressing about it, I don't know lol. It's currently not an issue but the thought of it becoming one has sent me into a spiral lol

2024-06-24 15:32:09 +0000 UTCYea they do, all the reactors I follow on here do.. But if copyright really is a concern, just do what Brad does, upload a link 🔗 to a password protected vimeo acct that your followers have access to.. Hope this helps, love seeing your full unedited reactions..🥰

2024-06-24 14:43:55 +0000 UTCDo they have the full shows / movie in the video on here? Nothing has happened thus far with copyright, I just don’t want to chance it

2024-06-24 14:39:45 +0000 UTCWell tbh same as you, edited content on YT and unedited content uploaded straight on here.. Just figured they might have some helpful tips or maybe have gone thru this issue before..😕

2024-06-24 14:38:52 +0000 UTCHow do A Story Worth Telling do it?

2024-06-24 14:32:40 +0000 UTCI suggest reaching out to Brad Evans as well, or the guys over on “A Story Worth Telling”.. It sucks this is happening, I hope you’re able to figure out a solution.. Like some ppl have mentioned not everyone has the devices to be able to watch things simultaneously..

2024-06-24 14:18:03 +0000 UTCI understand, and I’m crossing my fingers you can find a solution like Vimeo or GoogleDrive that allows you to continue as you are. I know I miss out on some wonderful creators because although I have the shows myself, I don’t have the device capacity to watch things in two places at once.

2024-06-24 14:07:22 +0000 UTCBrad was who I was thinking of when I mentioned Vimeo as well. I remember that he had some issues last year but I don’t think that they were related to Copywriting

2024-06-24 13:58:18 +0000 UTCyeah he does :)
Holly Shearing
2024-06-24 12:56:09 +0000 UTCDoes he have the full movie/show in his video too on Vimeo?

2024-06-24 12:52:14 +0000 UTCNiall do whatever works best for you. I know a couple of reactors use Vimeo but I don’t know anything else about it. Big help, huh?! Thanks for all that you do!

2024-06-24 12:39:17 +0000 UTClove your videos so much and it's so sad that copyright is so hard to avoid 😞. I don't know if this would work for you but I watch Brad Evans on patreon (a different YouTube reaction channel) and he uses vimeo for his vids and hasn't so far mentioned any major copyright issues. You could reach out to him and see if it's a possibility for you ❤️
Holly Shearing
2024-06-24 12:35:49 +0000 UTCI think a google drive link would work great! (at least for me, and I know other reaction channels that do that as well). Dealing with copyright infringement is the worst! But chin up, Niall, at the end of the day your patrons will still be here cuz we love your content ❤️

2024-06-24 12:21:13 +0000 UTCHi sir. Long time fan. Haven’t been able to have the time to watch some of your vids due to life. BUT I know you’re successful because you keep popping up on my YouTube. Also, don’t apologize, it’s not your fault at all. It’s damn capitalisms fault. Keep doing you sweetie
