Copyright requirements

Report · Aug 16, 2016

I may use royalty free sound effects/music bed available from adobe auditions sound library for use in a short film. I need to know whether I need to credit adobe in the ending credits (and if so, precisely what should be written or included). I also need to know when submitting to the copyright office whether I need to reference the existing copyright in previously copyright info (if and so, what claimant number to use.)

Thank you.

Better suited for Audition CS5.5, CS6 & CC (this is the SDK forum)

I'm not a lawyer and this isn't legal advice, but to my knowledge no attribution is necessary for any of the stuff that comes from Audition's royalty-free content.
