Question: Which video type may require permission from another rights holder before it can be uploaded?
- Covers.
- Fan Q&A session.
- Teaser.
- Tour diaries.
Explanation
This video type can involve someone else’s musical composition, so permission or licensing may be needed before upload. YouTube’s copyright guidance states that rights holders control who may use and distribute protected works. A recording made by the uploader does not automatically clear the underlying composition rights. Content ID may identify the music and apply claims based on the policies set by the rights holder.
Why the other options are incorrect
Fan Q&A session usually uses original spoken content and does not inherently require music rights clearance.
Teaser can be uploaded when the artist or team controls the promotional materials being used.
Tour diaries generally feature original behind-the-scenes footage created by the artist or team.
