I shoot 30p because it is better to go from 30p to 24p then the other way around! I have had people argue that with me but after much research on the subject I can state that is correct!

Here is my problem, they contacted me and asked for my content. I started uploading it and now bam I am slowed to a crawl to get my 6k files online, I am not going to mess with it at 25 clips a month!

The way they are moving to get this going is good! I feel positive about them from the way they have treated me with getting my clips up on their site!

Adobe is the one to keep our eyes on! They dwarf Getty in being able to reach the market!

You can batch edit, just hold down crtl/command and select all the files you want to keyword.

Getty dose what Getty dose to make money for themselves, we have a choice. I don't care if people love Getty and stay but for me it's not worth it. I still make some earnings there so am happy for that but I am much happier supporting companies that treat me better!!

I was exclusive at iStock for almost 10 years in photo and video! This year my video income kept going down no matter how hard I worked or what I loaded. I finally got the courage to drop it and I have never been happier! I know being exclusive works for some and that is fine but not for me that is for sure. I am not loading new content to iStock anymore and promote other sites from my own website that treat me fair. The video team at Getty/iStock is great and helpful! the management is another story! Don't forget even as an exclusive they can change your earnings every year by moving the target. RC is not gone and now it will be even easier to move the target. I don't get yanked around by $1 video sales and 0.2 image sales at other places! I don't love SS pricing but at least they stay consistent. Adobe is the dark horse in this race and they are the one to watch! If you go to AdobeStock now and sign in with your cloud ID you can click on an image and bam it will be in photoshop for you. You then can play around with it and with one click the watermark will go away. Their market share and integration is what everyone is afraid of. Getty is small compared to Adobe.

Envato sells at a cheap price from the start. Getty/iStock makes money off the backs of their workers and has accounting make new schemes to make the company more money. when I sell my work on Adobe or P5 or other places I know exactly what I am getting per sale. No games.

I would like to take a moment and thank sites like Pond5, Adobe and VideoBlocks and there are others. I dropped my video exclusivity at iStock and have seen my income go up 2k per month! Adobe and Pond5 has really worked hard to get my port online. I will not load to Getty/iStock because it is them who are driving down prices especially in the 4k market. I dropped my photo exclusive as well now as I never made much on it anyways there. I can say from my experience that the grass is greener on the other side of the fence. Lets talk about, link too and support the sites that treat us fair! That is the best way to drive traffic to the sites we want to sell on.

So I figured it out. You will get a whopping $12.00 for a HD & 4k Download on iStock. I will not be loading my content there! Now you can find my video exclusively at
others sites that treat me well!

So what are non-exclusive video files going to earn??

There is no need to take a stand on one pricing strategy over another. If you want a high price exclusive collection you can do that. There is room in the market for many agencies.

Thanks Matt,
I have been very impressed with Adobe and their help in getting my video online there! Love the site and treatment of the artist!

Agreed that content is king and 1080 still the standard, I am happy to take the $$ while it is on the table! I love setting my prices and getting 50% I passed my GI/SI earnings in two months! I haven't doubled my income yet but close.

Glad it is working well for you! I am so glad to see my earnings where they should be now and I sleep better at night knowing my work is spread around. I love see high $$ 4k sales on a regular basis now!

On a positive note I have found other sites to be very fair and treat me very well!

I am video non-exclusive, when I dropped my exclusivity my files did not change in price or collections! My files look exclusive on IS even though they are not exclusive!! The only way for you to know is my profile page and look for the clapper. I am image exclusive so there is a crown on my page so all of my files look exclusive. I do not feel this is fair to the buyer who thinks my files are exclusive when they are not!!

Thanks all, I don't know if 50gigs a month is enough if they could my 20gig load to each site that will blow that to fast.

Hello, This may be pie in the sky. What I am looking for is a script or software to load my batch of video files from dropbox to shutterstock, Pond5...etc via ftp. I want to use their upload bandwidth not my own for a faster upload. Is this possible? I don't need keywording my upload speed is relatively slow.

Nope I am up on my income by 20% now! Thrilled to say the least
