intellectual property refusal (similar video accepted in the same review tranche)

Question

I have submitted an AI generated video called “High-speed FPV drone shot over Seine River and illuminated Eiffel Tower at night, Paris — vertical ascent to bird's eye aerial panorama of Trocadéro and glowing city skyline”.

I’d love to understand the reason(s) behind the “intellectual property refusal”, also because a very similar video (https://stock.adobe.com/stock-photo/id/2044471091) I have submitted in the same tranche (the only difference was that it is set by day) was accepted.

downscaled video here, for your considerations → https://cesd001xaojfa.creativenergy.it/Drone_flythrough_Eiffel_Tower_area_night_1.mp4

If something is wrong with it, shouldn’t be both be refused for the same reason(s)?

No logos or trademarked things seems to appear in it.

If the “city skyline” is the problem, wouldn’t be better asking for a fix of title / keywords?

Kind regards

When illuminated, the Eiffel Tower is protected. It can only be used commercially if photographed during the day.

Nancy OShea · Answer

The nighttime light installation on the Tower is privately owned & protected by IP. That’s true for many light installations on landmarks, buildings, & bridges. See Known Restrictions below.
