Have you seen a sales benefit to an alpha channel or "transparency" vs. green screen?

General - Stock Video / Re: ProRes or H.264« on: February 24, 2019, 09:07 »
Not sure what cameras people are using, but if your camera is putting out H.264 and you aren't massaging the video much, seems like a wasted to go Prores delivery. Kind of like resaving a .jpg. as a tiff...the "damage" is already done.

General Stock Discussion / Re: adobestock keywords?« on: February 13, 2019, 14:30 »This story of ordering the keywords on Adobe is a pain How about equally weighting keywords. If someone is looking for an image of let's say a green tomato and a file has the keywords "green" and "tomato" it will come up in search. If it sells, then maybe weight the keywords more or the file's rank higher? Having to manually move keywords around is frankly very time consuming. It is the one aspect of the adobestock website I extremely dislike. What makes it even worse is Adobe LR forces alphabetical order. 632

The same as fotolia or going like Istock and once a month ... a month later ? Well one think I noticed when I requested a payout, it seemed to payout the entire balance vs. letting you choose the amount (I like to keep it to round numbers). 635
Adobe Stock / Re: How to Change Keyword order on an Accepted file« on: January 31, 2019, 10:42 »With the Adobe interface, how does one change the order of the keywords after acceptance? Okay great thanks! Somehow when I selected the image I "saw" the "delete" and "Make profile image" selections and didn't even notice that the title, category and keywords were editable when hovered over. 636

I know how to do it with the Fotolia interface, but can't see how to do it with the Adobe interface. 637

It would also be useful to see for a give image what search keywords were used that led to actual downloads. 638

How do you delete a mistakenly uploaded file prior to submission with the Adobe Interface? Thought I have done this before (select file and then under keywords there is a delete box), but I don't see the delete option after selecting the file?

General Stock Discussion / Re: My Youtube Stock Video Life« on: January 10, 2019, 11:05 »
Interesting! It sounds like everything you recommend applies to stills as well. How do you compare shooting stock stills vs. video in terms of effort, cost, and return?

Shutterstock.com / Re: Video reject reason - frame rate« on: December 31, 2018, 09:26 »What frame rate are you shooting in and what settings are you exporting in?30 and 29.97, could that be the problem? My software recognizes that 29.97 is the best export fps. Should I set that in 30 anyway? I believe 30 or 29.97 should be acceptable. Is it possible there is some kind of "hiccup" in the file (for example, cell phones will vary the frame rate on the fly)? What type of camera are you using? 642

It would be interesting to know of those 200 million plus images, the percentage that have sold at least once.

If your camera outputs H.264 and you are merely trimming the start and end of the clip, does this really matter?

Adobe Stock / Spelling Error Correction« on: December 06, 2018, 09:34 »
I use Lightroom to process my photos, then upload manually to AS. Occasionally a spelling error slips through. Lightroom has no spell checker (PC version).
This just happened to me and I had to generate a ticket on AS since it seems they don't allow editing of titles after a file has been approved. Two questions: 1. I heard there is a Lightroom plugin for uploading to AS...does it have a spell checker? (I gave up requesting Adobe to add spell check to LR). 2. In general, what do others do to avoid this issue without adding a lot of overhead in the file generation/upload process? 646
Adobe Stock / Payouts via Adobestock.com "US tax resident or not..."« on: November 30, 2018, 22:20 »
I have always done my payouts via Fotolia website. I figured I'd try on Adobestock. However, I got a question which I have never gotten on Fotolia.com
Specifically, it asks you to choose between "Are you a US tax resident" or not. What are the implications of the answer to this question? 647

Adobe Stock / How to Delete uploaded files on Adobestock« on: November 26, 2018, 10:07 »
I made a mistake and uploaded some editorial files to Adobestock. Realizing this, I wanted to delete the files but could not see how so I went in via Fotolia and was able to delete them via the Fotolia interface. So my question is:
How does one delete files they uploaded from Adobestock via the Adobestock interface? 650
