General - Stock Video / Re: Selling Video Clips
« on: October 29, 2009, 14:28 »
Hi,
Difficult to say about the clips like. Usually clips for submission should be 10-30 seconds. Video can be sold as editorial yes.
I recently made the jump from photo to video, I blogged about it here: http://microstockexperiment.blogspot.com/2009/09/from-still-to-motion.
Regards

Is that not similar to what TinEye is doing?

It might explain why I have only 3 views since August my portfolio does not show up on my profile page... How do you put it live exactly?

507
God knows how long they brainstormed to get to this one:) Not fair for existing contributor. Applicants need also to give a lot of infos I would not trust Fotolia with this....

508
Some more infos....
First, Istock pays only 20% royalties whereas Revostock pays 45% (shutterstock is at 30% if I am right)
You can set the price of your clips at Revostock which cannot be done  at SS and IS, I put some HD clips at $50.
So you do the maths...

Fotolia is undercutting the HD videos prices that's why I boycott them :P

509
We can start an Olympus Club here:)
I bought my first one in 1991 (the OM101) and got after the C2500L,E-10, then the E-501. The difference in image quality between each model was huge so I am waiting maybe next year or in 2011 to get a new E-xx.

I have the Zuiko 50 mm macro  2.0 which gives superb results. I heard the 70-300 ED has a very good quality for the price ($341 on Amazon...) but I just have the 40-150mm

I did some infidelities recently since I have also a Canon G9 and a Canon camcorder HF200 :)

510
I never use 800 or 1600 for stock.....

511
@holgs Did you try to get sponsored by Olympus for your venture, might be worth a try?

512
I use the E-510 for almost 2 years now, love the small size and the image quality. I mainly shoot RAW at 100 ISO. Works well with old OM Lenses as well with an adapter

513
6 sales in August, 3 in September, 0 so far this month:(
+ 70,000 views...

514
Yes I agree Sharpshot, my problem is that I have to choice  to record either progressive or interlaced with my camcorder (Canon HF200)...

515
By browsing the video forums it looks there is not clear answer to this: either shooting interlaced or progressive. Some  argue that progressive is becoming  more and more popular. What is your take on that? Do you shoot interlaced,progressive or both?
You can vote on my blog's poll as well: http://microstockexperiment.blogspot.com/

Cheers!

516
You have AlwaysHD also although they are pretty slow at processing  applications...
I do not submit to Canstock yet don't think they have sales yet. I avoid Fotolia because of theit low prices.

Here is my referral link to Revostock :)
http://www.revostock.com/?a_aid=39871

I summarize few of them in my last post: http://microstockexperiment.blogspot.com/2009/10/hd-stock-footage-agencies-memo.html

Good luck!

Veer / Re: Veery Quiet
« on: September 29, 2009, 11:13 »
Looks like a Snapvillage bis to me : 200 pictures on line (135 rejected), 3 views, 0 sales..... very dissapointing

521
Cutcaster / Re: anyone out there selling?
« on: September 29, 2009, 07:35 »
No sales for me either with 1000 pics on line. Same thing for YAY and ZYM these days....
3DS is doing better for me with the same portfolio...

Crestock.com / Re: Crestock wants bug/error reports for 50 credits
« on: September 28, 2009, 16:34 »
Paying contributors to find bugs, quite funny I think:)

523
dead this month......

524
Did not see this one coming:) I wonder where do SS benefit in buying BigStock only the credit base thing ???

Newbie Discussion / Re: uploading to multiple sites or not?
« on: September 20, 2009, 14:54 »
I recommend uploading to several sites for a year to see which ones are working for you as it is difficult to predict. Then you can focus on the best one s trying  to make images especially for them
Good luck
