Question on using CCBY content in submission

Hello, I have found some assets (3D models) that I would like to use in my submission (animation video). The asset is free but has a CCBY caveat (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). I could not really find something in the handbook (https://stock.adobe.com/pages/artisthub/pdf/contributor-handbook-2022.pdf) or online talking about this. 

 

First, is it allowed? Second, how to credit (in the video description)? Does the submission have to become Editorial? Which I think is not allowed for videos anyway (We don’t accept illustrative editorial videos at this time.)

Anything you submit to Stock is for commercial use and thus cannot be encumbered by claims from 3rd parties. Either you own 100% of your work or you don't.  There's no gray area.

Right. Thanks. It makes sense. So then I will not to submit any kind of work to Adobe (or any stock website) using those assets. Maybe use the assets to try out a product, then buy the commercial liscense to the full product if wanting to submit.

In addition, this may apply too, even that I think that your work is a derived work:

You must give credit, but on stock you can't give credit, so that won't be allowed. Even in Illustrative Editorial, that would not fit.

It is your responsibility to have commercial use of anything included in your media. If you do, you can use it.
