Really great work, the only thing I would say is do some shorter versions with that material. A bit long for a watch

I dropped my exclusivity at iStock in video in 2016. No I have never gotten sales for that cheap at other agencies! Do much better now. I too left my content but am not uploading to them anymore.

You have some great content! I moved over 6k, files to 5 sites in one year. Are you using CSV? very important to do so. It will take around 6months to a years or so to pass the income you made at Getty. It is well worth it but you have to be patient. I made over $300.00 on Adobe just yesterday.

iStockPhoto.com / Re: Is iStock worth it for video?« on: September 04, 2017, 17:59 »
I was exclusive there for over 10 years in video, many great people there but I will not upload my new content there because of the pricing since I went non-exclusive.

This is not the case, they do not have enough inspectors to keep up with to many artist at this point, it will grow and everyone will get the same chance. This is not an exclusive high stuck up place.

General Photography Discussion / Re: Graphicstock portfolio« on: August 29, 2017, 14:18 »
That is correct, it works like VideoBlocks. My clips are not on the free area, the clips there are purchased for that purpose but as an artist selling there you images have to be bought.

General Stock Discussion / Re: What would it take to bring back this industry to the golden days?« on: August 25, 2017, 10:51 »
Model released stock is the key to eat! most people give away work but do not provide a model release. Most of my video and images are model released or property released or both! At Graphic Stock the buyer will pay $4.00 for an image if they are a subscriber, artist gets 100% after banking fees so around $3.50 now you can just buy an image for $9.99 and not be a subscriber as well. I don't mind their free/subscriber library as they bought those images at a fair price for their subscribers it is a great advertising tool!

Putting my money for photos on GraphicStock Marketplace opening on Sept. 18, 2017. Why because I minimum I will be getting $3.50 per download, I can live with that and I am hoping buyers will come there! I am done with 38cents. If I can't sell an image that can pay for something on Taco Bell menu then I am not going to sell it!

VideoBlocks / Re: 4K sales« on: August 24, 2017, 11:54 »
I have only sold one twice. Since we get 100% there I would like to see the 4k priced at $150.00

Higher quality does not = equipment, Lighting acting location play a much bigger role then camera gear!!

Well, it didn't work too well. I say do what you feel is best for your content! I have no bone to pick where you place your work! I am happy to give graphicstock my work others are not. It is a business so I will do for me what I deem best and I assume others will as well.
