Is there a safe tool to use to download or copy some Youtube video, which I can then edit and incorporate into my own video? I can't find the answer here in the forums. Thanks for your help!

It is technically possible. But you should realise that Youtube deliberately do not allow this, and that Youtube video owners have copyright on each work. If you want to reuse their work, ask them for permission, and ask them for a download link. If you already have permission, realise that many people will assume wrongly that you can use their Youtube videos "just like that". Ask them for a download too.

Just do a free trial to Youtube Premium. It's three months free, right now.

There are apps and extensions for browsers specifically made for downloading from YouTube. Airy is one made for OSX. There are others.
Agree about respecting copyrights. Fair Use may apply, and you can find out about that on copyright.gov for the USA.

Hi John,
Good question.

Basic editor's rule of thumb? Don't rip off others' material. It's unethical. People do things because they can get away with it, and it's easier than ever because of ripper tools that attack YouTube creators' work. To me, that doesn't mean it's right. Put yourself in the content creator's shoes. For example the guy that got ripped of by those Australian TV networks Steve wrote about. You wouldn't want people stealing your stuff. It happened to me. I eventually wrote a book, because my own hard fought tips and techniques were getting ripped off by lesser talents (some my own "colleagues" Nice guys!). A little tougher to get ripped off when your lessons are in print, not video or web text.

I suggest that creators use legal footage or just shoot your own. That's why stock video and music exists. You license it. For a fee. There are low cost options for these things and even royalty free archival footage if you seek it out. There really is no excuse not to use it. With constraints also comes creativity, so you may actually win out.

Thanks,
Kevin

'Fair Use' as it pertains to law can also vary from country to country and may or may not supercede the YouTube definition. Just worked on a story on 'fair use' yesterday where an Australian TV network downloaded Youtube footage and used it in a current affairs program without permission, payment or attribution.

In Australia 'fair use' applies when you are using the footage for 'news' programs but at all times must be attributed. In this case while the program *could* loosely argue that it's a 'news' program - the way the footage was used could be interpreted to not be of 'news' value. So a very grey area.

I have done it many times using Premiere Pro. It works great. You can use other people's content for commentary and critisism without consent. It is considered fair use. How much can you use? That is the million dollar questions.

I have permission to use the content that is on youtube. How would I use Premier Pro to download the videos?

GBMon,

Thanks for the question. Premiere Pro does not download any video content from online sources, like YouTube. Sorry about that.

YouTube really does not want you to download their videos as it violates their terms of service. See: https://www.youtube.com/static?gl=US&template=terms

It will violate their terms of service if you download anything. Moreover, it is illegal to use downloaded footage if any person owns the rights to the footage and you have no permission.

So, if you download these videos you have permission to use and they are from YouTube, it would be legal in the eyes of the law, but you would still be subject to violation of YouTube's terms of service: which can lead to termination of your account, etc.

This article seems to have pretty good advice, but this is not my advice.

My advice is to steer clear of any kind of downloading of others' content. Red flag alert from this ol' skooler. Proceed with caution.

Some people I know use "third party" YouTube downloading software. I would beware of anything free that also requires your personal information. Seems fishy as these are the hallmarks of most of these "YouTube downloader freeware" offerings.

In other words, I cannot recommend a way to violate YouTube's terms of service. Sorry, again.

Regards,
Kevin
