: What are the laws concerning parody of movie posters? I would like to use the "look" of a movie poster for an advertisment. The images would be completely different. Is this copyright infringment?

Dear Samantha,

Without taking anay professional responsibility, it looks as if you may be on the right track for safety. There are still risks that you ought factor in. That is why we recommend a Reality Check (sm).
