How do you get permission to show a movie for a school project?

Ask your teacher....then it would have to be something that is approved by your school board to be watched in your district. Usually age appropriate. It would have to deal with a subject you are learning about in order to view the whole film. However, if you show just a few minutes that can sometimes drive home the example just as well if you find small clips. If you make the movie that is one thing...if you just show a movie someone else has made, that is something else.

You would need permission from the rightsholder to create the derivative work (the play itself), as well as permission to perform it unless the performance is specifically for purposes of instruction.

Can a condo association show a movie?

It depends on who owns the movie and who wants to show the movie. If the movie has been produced and is owned by a private party, and the private party grants rights to the association to show the film, then yes. If, however, a member owns or has access to a copy of a DVD or VHS movie with an owned copyright, and the association wants to show the film as part of an association agenda/ invitation/ announcement/ requirement, the association must request permission from the copyright owner before showing the film. Otherwise, if a few residents gather in the game room or a private residence and play a DVD or VHS movie without association involvement, no permission would be required.

How can I get permission to show a Reader's Digest home video in the classrom of a small private school?

you should first try to ask the principal of your school. Then if she argues it. ask her if you can send/give slips/phonecalls home to the parents and ask them if they would like their children to watch the movie. Because almost everybody who has worked or been in a private school environment knows that the parents are the bosses.

If you're using "a cancelled TV show" as a concept, sure. If you're using characters, storylines, etc. of an actual TV show that was cancelled, you're going to want permission from the producer of the show.
