Task Two - Choosing the track/ gaining permission

The song I have chosen to recreate a music video for is 'Make it to me' by Sam Smith. As Sam Smith is a signed artist it would be a very hard process in getting the permission I want in order to film, However as I am only filming for a school project and would not be viewing it anywhere else, I don't think it would be a problem. As I understand the copyright law very well I have made a decision and playing it safe by only viewing the music video to my teachers rather than posting it online.
