Q&A: How do i get past/obtain right to use something under copyright laws?

Question by Hardcore Asian Gansta: How do i get past/obtain right to use something under copyright laws?
I’m making a movie for my senior project. I’ve started early because I’m only in 9th grade, but I had an idea for it. I’m going to make a movie and fun of Jason from Friday the 13th.

1. Would I actually NEED the permission to use Jason’s name and mask even though its just a school project and I wouldn’t be making ANY profit from it?

2. If so, how would i get permission to use it or find a way around it?
