I made a video of a friend doing a stupid dance and it’s hilarious. He claims he is the copyright holder because it is of him and his camera, while it was my idea and I did the actual filming. Who owns the copyright?

If, for example, I wanted to download an Afghan film (as it’s easier to demonstrate the point as no copyright law exists there), would that be legal in the UK where the copyright length is 70 years after death. Or are there other factors involved such as distribution rights?

I’m a high school student and my film was chosen to be put in the AFI Dallas film festival. The only problem is I need to get permission from the people who hold the copyrights to the music I used. I have some Janis Joplin, some Beatles, some Yann Tiersen (the person who scored the movie Amélie), and maybe a few others.
I don’t even know where to start!
