Disney's lawyers ... now get your wallet out and ask a IP lawyer that can estimate how much it will cost to call their bluff. That is how business serious works -- risk assessments. Lawyer up and CYA or just avoid the risk. Or: How does using the risky behavior effect my bottom line profit?

I think that the big problem you have with 'it' -- is what your "fair use" may add to the value of your product -- and you want to be sure of getting away with 'it' without legal expenses before or after the fact. Lawyers are deal breakers and not deal makers -- their fiduciary duty to their client is to advise then of the downside of an action
Incorporate the production company and isolate it from your other assets. That is your first step -- and maintain the corporate veil properly, so if it is ever challenged, it will stand up to scrutiny.
