Oh, I thought you were selling stock on Amazon. Not T-shirts.
you said: " I am aiming for 10000 images this year. What does that in your kind of quality-uploads give you?"I spent about 40 days filming 40 actors, with 700 or some images per actor, 3 hours per person, and earn about $300 monthly after submitting more than half of the work.I did the same on video with 7 people, about 100 videos per 3 hour session, and also make $300 monthly from that group.I have filmed about 300 days, and I would say 99% of the work turned a profit. typical profit for 1 day of work can be from $500 to $1,000 over many years, however I am relatively new to stock selling so I do not have many years worth of sales.my advice is that you definitely are going to make money but there is a lot of waiting time especially for video sales.
you said: "Interesting. Did you do this solely for submitting to stock agencies, or was it workrelated?"I started by selling BRoll. I did some filming by going to different locations in town but it does not sell that well.I then did some tests where I would go on vacation, film something, and try to sell it. when I went on a trip, I made most of my money from the filming I did in the airport or on the plane, and little from filming the final destination.now, I make arrangements to film for example every day for 30 days. I hire actors and schedule 1 per day. after I do 30 days of filming, I spend another 45 days or so editing photos and keywording. I will end up with about 20,000 or more photos and maybe 1000 videos. then I spend many weeks or months uploading. I upload about 1,000 to 2,000 photos per week. many of the actors know each other, and the crew also, so it ends up being a lot of fun because I am working with people who are friends with each other.when the weather changes, and it is time to film again, I do a casting call to locate more actors and repeat the process.

But still... the guy asked how much we would make if we had 10,000 files. I make around $50K a year and I have 750 files. So if I had 10,000 files, all things being equal, I would make about $650K a year.

People think you need tens of thousands of clips, when most of the top contributors have much less, but every clips is a winner...
Lol. I remember a few years ago doing the math and thinking if I had x number of files online I'd be making $XXX,XXX per year. I could retire in my 50's and make more and more money every year and eventually be raking in millions annually in my 70's with the little illustrations I did at home. We all found out the hard way that it doesn't work that way.
I thought you were kidding. I have more than 10k files and make nowhere near that. Nowhere.

They're motion graphics so they take a bit of work, and although they're not exactly ILM level, they do pretty well at the agencies. Some make me over $1000 a year, so they must be pretty good I suppose.
