Do I have the right to add to my portfolio works made by me in the studio?

Question

Freelance

I have such a situation, I worked in a studio, layout and programming landings. Please tell me whether I have the right to place these works in my portfolio (indicating that I was engaged in layout and coding in this project) or not. Please give a detailed answer, if NO, then why not, and if YES, then why yes :)

Answer 1

You have every right to refer to the work. The author of the work can only be a specific individual and not a company. To understand the essence of things, read Part 4 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation, it is entirely about intellectual rights. For example:
1. The author of the result of intellectual activity is the citizen whose creative work created such a result.
Citizens who did not make a personal creative contribution to the creation of such a result, including those who provided its author only technical, consulting, organizational or material assistance or assistance, or only contributed to the registration of rights to such a result or its use, as well as citizens supervising the execution of the respective works.
2. The author of the result of intellectual activity shall have the right of authorship, and in the cases provided for by this Code, the right to a name and other personal non-property rights.
The right of authorship, the right to a name and other personal non-property rights of the author are inalienable and non-transferable. Waiver of these rights is void.
3. The exclusive right to the result of intellectual activity created by creative work initially arises from its author. This right may be transferred by the author to another person under an agreement, and may also be transferred to other persons on other grounds established by law.
Accordingly, the employer may have the right to dispose of the result of your work, if it is written in your employment contract, there are clear job assignments. In any case, if you are an author, no one has the right to forbid you to brag about your work, except when you and your employer or customer have signed an appropriate non-disclosure agreement.

Answer 2

Article 1295 of the Civil Code of the Russian Federation. Employee work
1. Copyright to a work of science, literature or art, created within the limits of the work duties established for an employee (author) (official work), belongs to the author.
2. The exclusive right to an employee's work belongs to the employer, unless otherwise provided by the labor or civil law contract between the employer and the author.
As an author, you have the right to refer to them, but regarding placement, you need to look at what you have with the studio in the contract.

Answer 3

You have every right to refer to the work. The author of the work can only be a specific individual and not a company.
Unfortunately yes. In the legislation in most CIS countries, only a person can be an author, although this is not entirely logical, but as a rule, if authorship is registered in a company, then it is registered with the director, deputy director or the closest circle of management, so you have the right to refer to these projects, but you cannot say that they are yours.
It is also impossible to place in the portfolio, but you can refer and say that you participated in the development of these projects.
Here is the main point, what kind of studio is it, if it is a small office, then I think that you can do anything.
But my personal opinion, I agree with Elena. "Your labor costs are paid, let the result serve the employer." This is the employer's project, he paid you for it, and the further fate of the project is only his business. However, the same point applies to the code or ready-made elements that you used there in the project, if, of course, you made them yourself.
