- Must include the Zgeedu.com Ai Image Generator logo or outro at the end of the film
- We have a zero tolerance policy on films that discriminate based on religion, ethnicity, country of origin, political affiliation, gender identity, sexual orientation, or other protected statuses
- Do not show minors in depicted or implied NSFW situations
- Share your film on social media after it has been approved and tag the Zgeedu.com Ai Image Generator account depending on the platform — we really appreciate it!
Optional Recommendations:
- Use original IP, characters, and storylines to avoid DMCA takedown requests.
- Use a fictional brand or product to avoid DMCA takedown requests.
- If using music, feature an original song that you have permission to use, a song you've found on a stock music site or in the public domain, or a song made with AI to avoid DMCA takedown requests.
- Remove watermarks if possible since it distracts from the viewing experience and breaks the 4th wall. Instead of having your personal watermark throughout the video, add an intro or outro credit sequence to spotlight yourself and the people on your team
