Hi,

I'm about to make a short that focuses on an 'Instagram' account, and all the hashtags, Likes etc that goes with it.

What are the rules on using IG/FB in a short? Can i just create a new IG account and use that on screen? Or do i have to create something similar?

Cheers,
P.

Fake it up. Even if you don't caught, get in the practice of faking things up. Probaby nobody would ever see/question for a short, but when you're getting eyeballs and making money, you're painting a target for getting sued. You can knock up a fake instagram clone pretty quickly with screenshots or even something like Powerpoint!

Don't forget to fake the sound/music! I've recently been part of documentary I Am Gen Z that used a lot of SM clips, and a part of my role was to replace music in Insta and TikTok clips. There's a Case Study video on my website with some clips from the film.
