It's all nonsense, it doesn't matter. If you sell on Artgrid and Storyblocks your income is much higher than your income on Pond5 and other stocks too. And even if someone steals your video and tries to sell it on Pond5, this is nonsense. Moreover, the thief will still be banned for pond5.
The only problem is that it is almost impossible to get on Artgrid or Storyblocks, these stock agencies are very demanding on content.
If any of the authors are selling their video on Artgrid and Storyblocks, I take my hat off. This is an indicator of the high level of the author.

I'm not sure if the video content on Shutterstock is reviewed by the AI. It all depends on what day of the week, what time and which inspector you get. Monday usually has the most rejections.

That is good for us. It means agencies will continue to need real photos for the training of their ais.

Yes, but agencies don't pay us to upload images. They only pay us if customers buy our images. And if AI images are faster and cheaper to pruduce and keep flooding Adobe like they do now and real photos get lost among all of the AI content and no one buys them - Will you keep producing real photos for Adobe?
Adobe has a filter, it allows the buyer to sort real photos and artificial ones. And such a filter is available on all stock agencies.

Conclusion, AI is a virus that infects the photo market.
And any virus must be killed!

1. If the amount of money is scanty, I would not waste my time.
2. Don't work without a contract. This will protect you later in court. As I understand it, you did not conclude a contract (you probably do not want to pay taxes).
3. Wait for the client to post your photos, and sue him for stealing your photos, I think you can earn a lot more money on this court case.
4. There are no freelancers on this forum, only stock photographers. Upload your photos to stock agencies!
The photos of the house or apartment you took are what stocks need. On stocks you will recover your costs.

My highest video sale so far...

So, we can say one thing for sure, a UFO appeared on the territory of the United States. And this is good news, because. secret technologies fell into the hands of the Pentagon. It would be much worse if a UFO was found on the territory of Russia or China.
I'm also interested in weapons. What do humanoids have there - blasters, laser guns or something else abruptly. Aliens will strengthen the US army!  8)
agreed there are UFO, but you're assuming UFO means alien - a much more likely possibility is that they're actually of Russian or Chinese origin.   you're also assuming alien UFO, if such exist, are purposely flying over and crashing in only US airspace and that China & Russia --more secretive than the US & with fewer leaks -- have not had their share of 'encounters'
Are you saying that the Russians and the Chinese got their hands on alien ships too? It is a bad idea.
In any case, the Russians have no science, and even if they find a UFO, they will not understand anything about it.

1232
I very correctly did that I never uploaded anything to this stock.

1233
Lowls, was the military able to find or detain a living or dead alien or humanoid?

1234
I don't think there are any UFOs on earth. All this media hype is done to distract people from earthly problems and crises.
This time it's quite a bit more than hype. Several things have been happening and this isn't being pushed by the media.

The cover is nonsense, the quality is poor. But where to buy such a remote control?

AI creates images based on the real ones that the developers fed it. Therefore, I think it is unlikely to distinguish visually.

Off Topic / Re: Stop talking politics!
« on: June 09, 2023, 08:21 »
On this site are people of the same profession, with approximately the same lifestyle. In fact, this site is a place where people who shoot content for stocks work and communicate. It is not constructive and not correct to suggest censoring their communication and crushing democracy. Moreover, this forum is very far from a political forum, and people who really want to professionally discuss politics will not find the right topics and interlocutors on this forum.
It's only in Russian and Belarusian forums 100% censorship and 100% lack of democracy. Everyone who is against Russia on Russian forums gets banned.

1239
Then why were these animations accepted and can be sold?
Is this all video created from pictures? Or an AI video creation program was used.

Probably for people who have connections in Adobe, this is allowed.  :)

If you received money yesterday, then they came for the nominated video. This program opened and closed in October 2022. Adobe does not decipher which videos were selected. If you didn't receive money yesterday, then your video was not nominated.

What do you mean October 2022 ? You mean they picked videos year ago and just now adding them to free collection ? I thought it's new campaign. Have no recollection what videos of mine got picked year ago...
Yes exactly. In the letter, they wrote that they decided in June to select more video from what was agreed with the authors in October 2022. Nothing new, everything old. And in October, they nominated far from everything that they chose.

I have been following the discussion over on reddit. Now getting really curious about the coming news.

I am sure alien life and more moderrn techmology exists somewhere. But what would they be doing here?
They want to help democratic countries in the war against evil.

1243
Today I received an email that about 30 of my videos have been added to the free collection. Adobe pays me money for this, but I still dont see an increase in the amount of income in my account.
It's strange that suddenly in June Adobe decided to post a my new video.
Why not every month then?

Debrief article here. At Gruschs request he wanted it desceminated in written articles first and then release the Ross Coultard interview in a few days ... https://thedebrief.org/intelligence-officials-say-u-s-has-retrieved-non-human-craft/
former US intelligence official David Grasch, who left the Defense Department in April after a 14-year career, said the US government has complete and partially damaged vehicles of extraterrestrial origin in stock. According to him, this information is being hidden from the US Congress, but he passed this secret data to the US Parliament. After that, he came under pressure from US government officials.

I'm reaching out because I recently joined Pond 5 as a contributor, and I could use some advice. Despite having 900 videos in my portfolio, I haven't made any sales yet. It's been a bit discouraging, to be honest.
If you have any suggestions or tips on improving my chances of making sales on Pond 5, I would greatly appreciate it. Perhaps you've been in a similar situation before and found some strategies that worked for you. Any insights you can offer would be invaluable to me.
Here is my portfolio : https://www.pond5.com/artist/just_necessary
1. There will be very few sales on such a portfolio. Although Venice is promising, it will take a year or more to wait for sales.
2. Video amateur.
3. Buy a tripod and a gimbal, everything is not stable in your frame.
4. Venice is all editorial, and editorial is rarely bought. Understand that stocks are work, you dont need to shoot only the editorial. Or you need post-processing, to blur trademarks, people's faces.
5. Before you shoot something, look at the same Pond5 to see how others have similar shots. Sorting by popular will show you the videos that get the most buys.
6. As a start, it will do. Other sites may have more sales.
7. In your case, 900 videos is about nothing. Bring your portfolio to at least 6,000 videos.
8. Your videos don't have enough tags, add up to 50.

one post was removed.  Please keep politics out of this thread.  You can start a new thread if you have a politcal question.  Things get so derailed so quickly otherwise.
I created a new topic. The topic is not about politics, but about the prices for adobe programs for different countries.
I hope Matt Hayward will answer the authors of this forum.

Adobe Stock / Questions to Adobe representative Mat Hayward.
« on: June 03, 2023, 05:15 »
Tell us about the pricing policy of Adobe. Can all citizens of Russia use Adobe programs for free?
Citizens of which other countries can use Adobe programs for free? For example, - North Korea, Iran, Belarus?

Lowls, thanks for correcting me, my English is really bad. Therefore, they do not always understand me here.

https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-12132183/Stanford-University-professor-claims-aliens-Earth-long-time-here.html

Gary Nolan, a Stanford University professor who collaborated with the CIA, said that the probability of aliens being on Earth now is 100%, and people simply don't notice them.

He also said that there are experts working on "reverse engineering programs for downed UFOs" and progress in this field will lead to a technical revolution.

Dr. Harry Nolan spoke at a conference in Manhattan last week titled "The Pentagon, Extraterrestrial Intelligence and Crashed UFOs."

Nolan, an immunologist and Nobel Prize nominee, had previously been assigned by the CIA to investigate cases of the mysterious Havana syndrome affecting embassy staff around the world, and had conducted experiments analyzing material allegedly ejected from UFOs during flight.

Host Alex Clokus asked him to determine the level of probability of the idea that aliens were on our planet.

Nolan told Clocus that the probability is "100 percent" and claims that we've probably seen them before, but like the South American tribes first spotted by Spanish ships, we haven't seen anything special about them.

 :) :D ;D ::)

And where does it written that this content was created in AI?

Hmm, maybe this person is just a genius, being capable of imitating the style of hundreds of artists and spewing out hundreds of variations of every of his ideas. But he doesn't seem to be capable of creating high resolution content.
And why is it not written anywhere on shutterstock that this content was created by AI. After all, shutterstock should write it.
