Copyright & trademarks
Last updated: October 15, 2026
The short version: the actors, sets, sounds and music come from Microsoft's 1995 program, which Microsoft released under the MIT License. Most of the software is open source under its own licences. Low Poly Pictures' own features, website and artwork are ours. Movies people make belong to them and stay on their devices, so we don't host anyone's movies. If you think something on our site infringes your rights, email hello@lowpolypictures.com and we'll look into it promptly.
1. Who owns what
| Part | Owner and licence |
|---|---|
| Actors, props, sets, sounds, music and the original program | © Microsoft Corporation. Released in 2022 under the MIT License. BRender 3-D technology © 1995 Argonaut Technologies Ltd, released under the MIT License in the same release. |
| Browser port of the engine | MIT License, together with the 3DMMForever and 3DMMEx projects it is based on. Source code |

| Low Poly Pictures' own features (such as the HD stage), HD artwork, this website, its text, design and logo | © 2026 Keller Concepts, which runs Low Poly Pictures. All rights reserved. |

Nothing on this page limits the rights that open-source licences give you.
2. Trademarks
- “Low Poly Pictures” and the Low Poly Pictures logo are trademarks of Keller Concepts. You're welcome to say that a movie was “made with Low Poly Pictures” and to link to our site. Please don't use our name or logo in a way that suggests we made, sponsor or endorse something we didn't, or as part of the name of your own product, channel, group or domain.
- Low Poly Pictures is not affiliated with or endorsed by Microsoft. Microsoft and 3D Movie Maker are trademarks of the Microsoft group of companies. We mention them only to say where the program comes from.
- Other names may be trademarks of their owners.
3. Reporting a copyright concern
We respect creators' rights. Today, the only material we host is our own website and the studio with its built-in content and open-source components; nobody can upload anything to our site. If you believe something on our site infringes your copyright, send a notice to:
- Email: hello@lowpolypictures.com, subject “Copyright notice”
- Post: Keller Concepts (Low Poly Pictures), 10302 East 71st South #1008, Tulsa, OK 74133, USA
Please include:
- your physical or electronic signature (typing your full name is fine in an email);
- a description of the copyrighted work you believe is infringed;
- where the material is on our site (the web address, and for content inside the studio, a description such as the name of the actor, set or sound);
- your name, postal address, phone number and email address;
- a statement that you have a good-faith belief that the use isn't authorised by the copyright owner, its agent or the law; and
- a statement that the information in your notice is accurate and, under penalty of perjury, that you are the copyright owner or authorised to act on the owner's behalf.
These are the elements a notice needs under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act (17 U.S.C. § 512(c)(3)), and they help us act quickly wherever you are. If a notice is valid, we'll remove or disable the material, or explain why we believe its use is allowed (for example under the MIT License). Please be accurate: under US law, someone who knowingly makes a false claim of infringement can be liable for damages.
4. Movies and videos posted elsewhere
We never receive the movies people make, and we can't see, change or remove movies or videos that people post on other websites or apps. If you're concerned about a video made with Low Poly Pictures that's posted somewhere else, please contact that website or app using its reporting tools. If it's urgent and involves a child's safety, contact the police, or in the US the NCMEC CyberTipline (report.cybertip.org).
5. Reporting a trademark concern
If you believe something on our site misuses your trademark, email hello@lowpolypictures.com with the subject “Trademark notice”. Include your name and contact details, the trademark and where it's registered (if it is), where the material is on our site, and why you believe it's a problem. We'll review it promptly.
6. If we add sharing
People can't share or publish movies through Low Poly Pictures today. Before that changes, we'll update this page with a registered copyright agent, a counter-notice process for people whose movies are removed by mistake, a policy for repeat infringers, and a separate, fast way to report private intimate images and other harmful content.
