Hello, I'm new to youtube.
I have read Youtube's fair use.
I want to cut off 3 seconds of their videos for illustration or example in my video.

I want to create a channel like Alltime10s, AlltimeConspiracies ...

I see they use some footages from others as example for their videos.
Can I do like that? Is it fair use? I don't want to receive copyright strikes from others.

Thanks.

Update: What happens if the owners don't like their content in my video and report my video? Will I get copyright strikes? How can I resolve copyright strikes?

Hello, I try to search Youtube videos with Creative Commons. And I found thousands of videos.

Can I use them without permission? I'm very glad when I found them

You can search on youtube with keyword: "insects,creativecommons"

Usually you can, it just markets their videos as well anyways. Check out channels like The Amazing Atheist, who does it all the time. You have to add more to it though, talk about it etc. Just a few seconds should be no problem, the guy I just mentioned usually puts their entire video in his and I doubt he gets permission first.
 
@socialsketch Thank you :). I always want to made video like Alltime10s but I'm afraid I'll get copyright strikes.

Yea you should be able to use other peoples footage in your videos, it says it in the youtube rules. But if I were you just to be safe make sure you credit them and also make sure you do a voice over so that the content that you are putting out does not have to many same points as the Pre video that you used. It has to looked changed up and different.[DOUBLEPOST=1410974851,1410974716][/DOUBLEPOST]Oh and no the owners cannot just flag your content or report it because they don't like the from that you are using their content in, If you plan to make comments about another persons video in your video its totally ok. That all falls under the fair use act. Thats the reason that people like the finebrothers can make the videos that they make.
 
If the owners of the video/clip don't like it then take it down or edit it to remove the clip. They are the owners of it and if they don't like it they have perfect right to take it down.

Yea but it does not matter if they report you because as long as you change up the content of the original video footage that you are using you will be falling under the fair act rule. Just look it up it will state that it is ok to use someone else content for edu work or comments

That doesn't make sense to me, this isn't China where the government halts all news if they don't like it and jails people for speaking their minds.
