  1. Which Creative Commons license allows commercial use of a texture asset with only attribution required?

    Answer: CC BY

    CC BY (Attribution) is the most permissive Creative Commons license, allowing commercial use as long as proper credit is given.

  2. A studio scans a real person's face to create a game character texture without written consent. Which legal area is most directly violated?

    Answer: Right of publicity / likeness laws

    The right of publicity protects individuals from unauthorized commercial use of their name, image, or likeness.

  3. Under the DMCA, what is the first action a platform must take after receiving a valid takedown notice for a user-uploaded texture?

    Answer: Remove or disable access to the content promptly

    The DMCA safe harbor requires platforms to expeditiously remove or disable access to infringing content upon receiving a valid takedown notice.

  4. A royalty-free texture license typically means the buyer:

    Answer: Pays once and can use the texture without recurring fees

    Royalty-free means a one-time purchase grants ongoing usage rights without additional per-use royalties, not that the asset is free of charge or copyright.

  5. Which US law specifically governs the digital reproduction of copyrighted works including 3D textures distributed online?

    Answer: Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)

    The DMCA is the primary US law addressing copyright protection and infringement for digital content, including online distribution of texture assets.

  6. When a texture artist in the US creates a new texture, copyright protection applies:

    Answer: Automatically at the moment of creation

    Under US law, copyright protection is automatic and arises the moment an original work is fixed in a tangible medium of expression.

  7. A game company wants to sell character skins that use photogrammetry textures of real-world branded logos. The primary legal concern is:

    Answer: Trademark infringement

    Reproducing trademarked logos in commercial products without permission constitutes trademark infringement, regardless of the scanning technique used.
