Mockery, clowns N such...

Ok, so yesterday I spent a couple hours making a video for some close friends of mine who are fighting to change the Canadian laws that pertain to life sentencing for child molesters and murderers etc. After creating the video and uploading it to google I quickly realized that there may be some copy write issues as far as using the video that was created. When I read the software license agreement for the animating software it seemed to me that they did not grant the user the ability to remove the video from their domain and edit it in external software. Being the geek that I am I decided that this just wouldn't do and that I had to contact them so off to the email proggy I went and got the following reply to my request...

Hello Don,

Thank you for contacting Xtranormal support.

Yes. Absolutely. The movies you create are yours to use however you want, as long as the use is not commercial.

We do ask that you keep our post-roll and link to our site, but you can modify our clips in any editing or effects software you like.

We just want to get the word out about Xtranormal.

Happy Movie Making!

Regards,

Xtranormal

Is it ok to remix some of the video on the xtranormal site with external
software as long as there is a reference or link to the xtranormal
website included in the remixed video?

Thank you for your time...
