Or maybe this is because I'm submitting on the french Adobe Stock contributor site ?... ???
Well after taking a look on the 'technical requirements' page, it is still recommended to "Avoid vertical or square framing" for video contents.
Too early to start uploading I guess...

That page you reerenced will be updated shortly with the updated informaiton on vertical videos. If you submitted vertical videos and they were rejected for technical reasons, it was not because you uploaded them in vertical format. What were the file numbers? I'll be happy to take a look for you.

Thanks Mat,
after taking a look the files were exported with default settings on my after codec plug in putting them in 3840x2160.
Apologize for all, I will submit a proper 2160x3840 and we'll see.
Thank you very much for helping!
Hi Mat,
it's ok, after reuploading proper 4k 2160x3840px videos, they have been accepted.
I hope this format will bring some popularity in the buyers community and a new source of income (fingers crossed...)
Thanks!

Hi Everyone,

In case you missed the livestream I hosted today, I wanted to share the link. For videographers specifically, you may be interested in considering adding vertical video to your portfolio if you haven't done so already (if you already had, you might want to re-submit, we explain why during the livestream). During the livestream I was joined by Tom Spota who is the Senior Manager in charge of motion at Adobe Stock. He spoke specs and subjects to shoot and I think it's worth a watch. If you only want to watch that segment, it starts at 13:39 and lasts around 15 minutes.

I was later joined by a fantastic sports cinematographer and photographer named Corey Jenkins who shared some very valuable insight into his career. Worth a watch in my opinion.

Thanks!

Mat Hayward

Hi Matt,

recently (some months ago) I uploaded animations in square format which were refused because of the format not accepted at the time. Do you think they should be accepted now ?

Thx

Benoit

No, I don't believe so. Tom covers the acceptable resolution options during the livestream I had linked above.

Thanks for the question,

Mat
Thanks for answering.
Well unfortunately it seems that the inspection staff should be informed of the acceptance of vertical videos, because I just submitted four 4k videos (2160x3840 px) which were refused for "technical reasons". For information it is similar adapted versions of normal 4k files which were all accepted...

Thank you!!

I'm waiting for all the haters to come comment ridiculing me as usual though.  lol

... while WE should be the haters for being robbed this way by Adobe and the Thievery dream team Inc. (SS, Getty etc...)

Nobody is forcing you anything, and it's not free, you get 5$.
[/quote]

Wrong.
If I'm hired for a job at 1000$/month, and suddenly it drops to 100$/month, am I forced to leave ? I think so.
In this case I am earning 2,80$ instead of 28$, and 5,60$ instead of 56$. Take some time and do your math.
And if your message was just another "take it or leave it", just give me a break.

Hello Mat,

I appreciate your efforts and I think you're a nice person.
But I think Chillswell in his message was rather referring to the new commission rate for videos.
Yes we are not forced to submit our work into the free collection, but we are forced, and have no other choice than to accept that our videos are now sold with a price commission divided by 10...
Unless Adobe Stock allows us to opt out from this plan (which would not be very complex to set up), it is nothing but pure robbery.

Regards

Benoit
Thank you for the support, guess we both don't like licking boots so much.
Easier to just ignore us. Force us to sell our work for $0.50 cents and be "generous"
to have it listed for free, optionally . >:(
Yes, and it feels like we are both the elephant in the room in this thread...

I'm sorry you feel that way @Chillswell

Well, you've clearly singled me out here haven't you?
have you read the forums? its not just me who feels this way.

We got quite a few big players here protesting the change in Adobe over the past year,
But, it wouldn't be polite of me to name them, you know who they are.

Anyways, plenty of others here to tell you how amazing you and adobe are,
while they sell their 4k footage for $1.50 instead of $50 or $70 .
The reviews on glassdoor regarding adobe don't lie though,
So good luck to you and your "army" of flatterers here.

Well said. +++

More and more 2,80 and 5,60 video commissions :-( A bunch of old licenses (28 and 56, sometimes 70) still sold but probably the last. Video income actually divided by 10.
Dear Adobe Stock, welcome to the Istock/Shutterstock greedy family. (yes complaining, that's all we have left)

Adobe Stock has shutterstocked us. Same amount of videos as monthly usual, but big drop in revenue.
Thank you very much for this !  >:(

I found a lot of my videos inside this port:
https://www.shutterstock.com/fr/g/octafloresvia/video

You may find some of yours...

I won't send any millionth DMCA notice to this garbage Shitterstock company I hate.

PS: please Mr Musk, could you buy this agency and fire all these bxstxrds ?

Adobe Stock / Re: Video Royalties To Drop
« on: April 04, 2022, 03:55 »
Masybe I was reading the new earnings breakdown fast and my brain froze.
What do I earn per video in this case?
HD - 16-500 CREDIT PACK OR ON-DEMAND
4K - SUBSCRIPTION, 40-500 CREDIT PACK OR ON-DEMAND

The earnings per download are broken down by subscription plans in the royalties page linked here: https://contributor.stock.adobe.com/en/royalties

-Mat Hayward

The least would have been to allow contributors to opt out from this and "decide" whenever they want to have a loss of income...

Off Topic / Re: Message to all Russians in these forums
« on: March 04, 2022, 13:50 »
Dear Russian friends, I know there is a significant stock photographers community, so I have an appeal to you.

Please do not believe in your Russian media propaganda saying that terrible war is some kind of "special action". It is regular war against Ukrainian civils. Putin is cannon firing kindergartens, hospitals and civilian areas. Your Russian dictator is not better that Hitler or Kim Jong-un. He started the worst kind of war in the middle of Europe so no one can feel safe now.

I am asking you to inform and spread the true information wherever you can in your country. Putin already cut you off from most foreign media, so all ways to reach you are good.

Thanks!

BTW, I am not Ukrainian, but I have so much sympathy to their people that I had to post it, hope it won't be removed. If is reaches even one unaware Russian, my message makes sense. The only way to bring peace back to Europe is to make Russian aware and ready to avert from their ruler.

Please do not confuse any population in the world with their politicians. Please, first before lecturing any citizen from any country, do not believe in your own country's media propaganda. I have much sympathy for both ukrainians and russians, yet I don't think my little person & my personal opinions/feelings/believes/thoughts can have any influence on geopolitical events, as terrible as they can be, but unfortunately that's how we are educated and accustomed to think in most of western countries. And Putin is not Hitler.

Give it a bleeding rest I'm sick of Putin apologists who think that psycho sh-it is some kind of new messiah

Where did you see any apology of Poutine in this quote ? You're the kind of people reaching the godwin point in 1 nanosecond. People who don't read history books, which are made to help making relevant comparison, makes me vomit. If I say Putin did not bomb Hiroshima and Nagasaki what will you say ???

Dumbest stock agency ever

50
I wonder if it is worth the effort just by curiosity ?
I make enough money with stock agencies, but I was wondering if I could bring buyers to my own agency via Instagram (which I don't know very much)
Any opinion welcome
Have a great WE!
