YouTube error

Tody as I was going to update my blog and upload my groups final draft on to my individual blog, I discovered our video had been removed from YouTube. I was baffled by this and instantly knew this was a mistake as all the clips where filmed by one of us.
Therefore I instantly contacted YouTube, and they got back to me with the reasons for why it had been blocked. It was due to the song, not the footage & the fact we had put the video up with a different name of artist (Robert Masters) as apposed to Hardwell. I recieved an email regarding this issue and how to resolve it. As our video is purely for educational purposes it is okay as no money is being made from this.

I then filed the report explaining this is part of our media course and is not there to make money etc. This issue is no resolved and our video is back on YouTube, I have now updated the description of the video explaining its purpose so we do not have this problem again.
