Shutter stock rejections arrgghh

--- Quote from: 2checkingout on October 31, 2019, 04:09 ---So submitted two photos of Lake Louise, same shutter speed, aperture, iso, focal length. Taken a few seconds apart and from slightly different angles. One photo gets approved and one gets rejected because of noise. Uh. I get it if both photos are rejected, prefer both are approved. But what gives with the review process?

Sounds to me like they're too similar. Let it go and get busy submitting either… a) different subjects or b) the same subject from a nice variety of viewpoints.

Yes, weird rejections last month or two.. Bad business strategy... I upload to other agencies :)
DiscreetDuck:
Perfect!!!

After a nearly spotless record of acceptance at shutterstock in video I an now getting 4 out of 5 rejected for ridiculous reasons like noise and artifacts when the footage is clean and denoised even when shot at ISO 100 in daytime on a GH5 at 10bits. My workflow has not changed and all of the rejected have been accepted with no issues at Pond5 and AS. My guess is SS is going to start rejecting most non factory submissions. 16 years of producing footage and now boom SS acceptance wall.
I really find it disheartening after allnthe work I put in creating and processing these videos. I have never had a refund and sell thousands of clips a year on all sites combined.
Anyone noticed something similar in video?

Non native speaker, can you please define
"non factory submissions" ?
Thanks!
