rn, i'm creating a portfolio geared towards design. i'm wondering if i can include fan made edits into my portfolio... i make a lot of the graphics and stuff but i don't take the pictures....

most of the pics that i use are fantaken or uploaded by the company, and idk how to properly credit them after i edit it..

idk if i can include it in my portfolio and show it to unis...

By fantaken you mean like the company uses your art right? I don't think there's any issue regarding that as long as what you use is yours.

no no like i mean for example, a gd at a concert

gd's fansite, g one only, posts pictures of him at the concert

yg ent uploads pictures from the concert

 

all i do is add graphics and text

Unless the source is from stock photos that have creative common licence says on the pic allowing you to use freely, you always should have permissions of the photographer or always credit the original images you used. Artists don't fuck around with their credits so just do it to be safe

You must ask the person who took the picture for permission to use them. After you get their permission, you then would comply with their terms and conditions for using the photos. This is to prevent a lot of legal things from happening.

 

To be safe, if you can't get permission from the original poster. Don't do it.

 

Edit- "This is for the business things." I know a famous artist who used legal action for selling a doll from their fanart despite some credit.

because its not creative commons, you are not supposed to gain anything from creative commons unless there is commercial permission
