How to Properly Credit Adobe stock image, video, and music

Hello,

I have used stock video, photos, and music for a documentary that I am doing for a client. Can all credits be put in the ending credits? Also since I am licensing this for a client, does it need to be credited in a different way?

The licensing terms are here very flexible. They state that you should put the credits in an appropriate place. So yes! Put them where you put the credits. Simple.

I don't see a reason for that.

For the Adobe Stock videos, music, and photography used in documentary will the below verbiage put in the ending credits suffice? Also,I am licensing this for a client, is there something additional that needs to be added?

Yes, you need to add the contributor's names. Except, if the rest of the video is free of use, I would do without the copyright text. This should be included in the general copyright text.
