I have a project for school where I need to make a website about something I like and I chose to make a fallout 4 fan page. Unfortunately I live outside of the US and the principle of fair use doesn't apply in my country.
I had made a logo with one of the bobble heads from the game but I need written permission from Bethesda that I can use it for my project but honestly it's fucking impossible to get in touch with them so fuck that.
I'm a back end web developer and i suck at graphic design. I can't change the theme of the website either but I am allowed to have a logo that resemble the fallout franchise without using copyrighted material.
Anyone have any tips or inspiration or whatever because I am fucking stuck as what to do for a logo/?

Are you going to make money with your fake fan page?
If not, I don't think any country in the civilized world would be against using IP work for dummy and school projects.

Oh no, no money will be made. It's strictly just for a school project. The problem is that a criteria for the project is that all material must be licensed. I'm not scared by being hunted down by Bethesda's legal team, but my initial logo has already been scrapped by my teacher unless I get permission from Bethesda

Lol what the fuck is your teacher thinking? Its not like bethesta will be interest in working with school projects. My teacher only requires citing the photos or any material from the web and thats it

op just put whateveer you like and say you got permission from bethesda. youre not doing anything illegal, and there isnt anything your teacher can do.

I feel like flying to where ever you live and kick your teachers teeth in. "Must be licensed content, though we live in a country that doesn't support fair use." Seriously, what country?
If you have to design websites for school, you need to get used to designing things on Photoshop and Illustrator. Just download them and start watching basic tutorials and get a feel for the software. Either way, knowing how to do that goes a long way and will save you copyright trouble in the future. Good luck, anon!

Sounds like you should change your website idea. Choose something that wont need permission from Bethesda.
>webpage that is a portfolio for your own work
>start a webpage petition for Fair Use in your country
>create limited palette color schemes and make a webpage for fashion advice
>make a store that sells your artwork
