General Stock Discussion / Re: Pond5 "Good News"!
« on: March 21, 2019, 14:13 »
Just got off the phone with them, let's see what the future holds for us long term shooters! Now I am posting a video about it on my site but I will summarize it here. I think as a business this is a good move and needed at this time in the industry. I am seeing my RPD go down and buyers shopping around as well. The 60-40 split does not bother me and I would have done something similar. If you are a serious video producer then this is a good space for you! If they keep the buyers coming this will put pressure on Getty to get more content but do be fooled Getty is the one who has shafted the artist for $$$. Pond5 has set it so I make more then they do if I am exclusive! This is the move I expected and aside from a few glitches I hope it does well! Now I did make a suggestion to add photo in the exclusive pack so we could advertise that as well! Watch the video on my channel in about 1 hour if you want more info.   https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwoU327B927MD49NNf16gxw?view_as=subscriber

Please explain: They stated that exclusive files would be shared on Vimeo and Adobe platform..... How is that exclusive???

205
The agencies do not want side deals either, I got contacted about a clip someone saw on SS through another site I shoot video on. They wanted a different license so I agreed on a price and did it. I would love to be able to work those deals more!

I think exclusive content is key to any business surviving now days! As long as it is implemented well and not artist exclusive that is fine with me.

I am fearful about this! I just scheduled a call with their leadership for after the youtube stream. I also made a video on this and sent it to them today as well! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpzsexKt1jo&t=787s

I see the service has changed to M+ online and would love to test it out but can't get into it :-( when I am able I will create tutorials on how to use it on my youtube channel!

This is to funny! I am sure Abode and ShutterStock would love this info. as well!

No worries you don't have to watch the video! Bottom line is this. SS is going the way of Getty in a lot of ways the only real way to survive in this market is to produce really high end content! They don't care if a few people pull their clips or complain some. Now in order to make a difference you have to have your voice heard! So if you are upset here then you need to contact them and give them your thoughts. The more people that do that the better.
