Title: New image requests from stock sites?
Post by: TnT Designs on September 18, 2019, 06:59

Hi all

I seem to remember that some stock sites like SS used to have a place they published requests for images on certain topics from time to time.  I think they tweeted them, but not on their regular Twitter account.
Can anyone share links to places where I can find out what images are in demand (i.e. new material is needed)?

Thanks!

I notice that Alamy has a section on their website. https://www.alamy.com/contentresearchtool/whatshouldishoot.aspx (https://www.alamy.com/contentresearchtool/whatshouldishoot.aspx)
Maybe someone can tell me if the others in the Big 4 have similar pages?

iS sends out requests. Most go to exclusives, but a few go to indies as well. These are usually pretty expensive to set up and/or very specialised.
