Non-Ai video review times are fast, like a couple of days. AI videos are about a month.

IMO, if you make a non-spammy meaningful variation then you should also upload that as a vector. If you only upload it as a PNG you are missing out on buyers who need a vector. However if you upload it as a vector, it will additionally be available as a PNG.

Adobe Stock / Re: How would I do this?« on: September 25, 2024, 18:25 »
So long as the vector has a transparent background it will be offered to the buyer as all 3 formats: vector, PNG and JPG. It is unnecessary to upload files in both vector and PNG formats, and could put your account at risk for spamming.

Just upload the vector file. Adobe will make the jpeg and if there is a transparent background they will also make a png, and the buyer will have all the options available to them to choose from.

Interesting that this is the thread that simply will not die despite the stats being pretty meaningless because they are only based on downloads not earnings. I have started out the week with 4 video DLs earning $33.29 and 1 image DL for $0.34 and my weekly rank is 13,750th.

I got $1521 from approx. 1800 videos. I have been contributing to Adobe since 2018. For anyone who is interested in the technical details of how Adobe is using stills from videos to train AI image generation: https://petapixel.com/2024/08/22/adobe-researchs-impressive-new-ai-cut-and-paste-photo-editor-was-trained-on-videos/

Best month since March 2018!
Sales numbers were a lot more than I was expecting based on the YTD counter. Apparently some people got an email saying that there would be some sales from previous months in this month's Royalty Statement, and apologising for the lateness of this reporting. I didn't get the email. 109

So anyway, talking about review times, in Adobe Stock VP Matt Smith's blog post today, apart from all the exciting news about the Firefly bonus, it is stated that Adobe Stock has tripled their review team. https://blog.adobe.com/en/publish/2024/09/10/adobe-stock-continued-commitments-to-creators?mkt_tok=MjY5LVlORy02MDEAAAGVe6sGL36SIBLPeaQJyJbrgxJcF0hNzqHp1fq7_rJCniTtSx9sXA7Z2nUzCE-w8SNPD6yxc0388Kq5-l7KBSsrLbcofFm_7dclInqdMig
Adobe outsources content moderation to a Serbian company, Mod381, but with the tripling in moderation, is content moderation being spread amongst multiple providers, some of whom are tasked with moderating AI generated content and others with moderating non-AI content? Are some of these providers more streamlined in their processes which is why review time are so skewed at present? (All these questions are rhetorical, because I'm not expecting anyone here to have the answer ofc!) 111

In this forum on March 4, 2024, in response to the question "Does your % acceptance on Adobestock affect how much your images are seen?", Mat Hayward from Adobe Stock responded "No."

Adobe Stock / Re: Adobestock Review Time« on: September 09, 2024, 05:06 »Deletion of uploaded files is treated same as file rejection and effects on your stats and sales. If that is the case with deleting stuck files, then the effect would be negated when re-uploading them back into the queue? 113
Adobe Stock / Re: Adobestock Review Time« on: September 07, 2024, 18:32 »It seems that some people are getting images reviewed and others seem to get buried never to be seen again, I am wondering if it is worth deleting images and resubmitting them to get them back up the top of the Q? It has worked for me on a handful of occasions in the past to resubmit the stuck files and they have been reviewed more quickly. But there is no need to delete the older ones first, you can delete them if the newer ones get reviewed. Otherwise I would leave the older ones there in case they get reviewed first, and then I would delete the newer ones. 114

I think diversifying across major stock sites is a good strategy as opposed to exclusivity, because success in stock has a significant amount of luck associated with it. In my experience content can sell hundreds of times on one platform and barely any times on others, and it all just depends on whether you got lucky with the algorithm.

General Stock Discussion / Re: Vertical video on Pond5 and AdobeStock« on: August 27, 2024, 07:08 »
Vertical videos work fine on AS, but P5's are broken. I have uploaded a few vertical videos there and they show up in the search results until I actually check the Vertical filter and then they disappear! I have been in touch with their support and they have replicated the issue and are aware of it but are still working on it after several weeks.

Shutterstock.com / Re: Mass infringement on shutterstock and its failure to protect original artists« on: August 22, 2024, 04:22 »
Can I report an account to Shutterstock that contains stolen videos, but none of them are mine? If so, what email address is best to use? If I give them about 10 links to the original content on various sites would they remove the whole portfolio or just those clips?

Adobe Stock / Re: Adobestock Review Time« on: August 19, 2024, 07:17 »
My understanding is that their moderation is not done in-house, it is outsourced to a Serbian company.

The moderators accept videos under 5 seconds and from my observations a short time later the videos get deleted. |
