@everest, thanks so much for this detailed response. Some stuff I didn't want to hear, but I guess that's why I knew I should ask first!
...it will be a lot harder and 1000$/month is hard nowadays if you are starting now. Yikes, I was hoping this wasn't the case with video but oh well. Still, $800/month is nice! What sells best: People doing stuff if in an office environment better. Keep it real. Ah, so Yuri Accurs has been right from day one then! lol
Never tried Pond5 will give it a look. Thanks for the suggestion. On Adobe Stock, our lowest earnings are around $0.38 per download, but the volume more than makes it up for it in my opinion. Enjoy your journey and film and take stills of course but don't get the shooting limit your travel-life experience in any way. I think from an economical point of view it will be not worth it. So all the best and good luck with your trip. Thank you! And again, thanks for the advice! 4

How to earn $10,000/month from templates...? @Mxr, most of our money comes from our own websites. We have our own online stores with the option to purchase an individual template, or join as a monthly/yearly subscriber. Then we upload to Adobe Stock, CreativeMarket, Envato etc. CreativeMarket and GraphicRiver are not what they once were, and Covid hit them particularly hard, but Adobe Stock is a good marketplace to sell on right now. We're also experimenting right now by extracting illustrations from our works and uploading individually to places like ShutterStock, but so far we've made less than $10 lol But if you're going to sell templates, you should definitely consider your own website as well. If you have specific questions, please feel free to ask 5

Thank you all for the replies! I was under the impression video might be a bit less saturated than photos but I guess the real money right now is to stick with our template websites.

Hi all, before you all laugh at me for the title of this thread - Please understand it is a candid question and I am searching for some experience-backed answers.
I currently earn around $10,000/month selling stock templates for Photoshop & Illustrator (on my own sites, CreativeMarket, GraphicRiver, Adobe Stock etc). I have been selling templates now for more than 10 years, so I'm no newbie to the world of "stock" itself. However, I have zero experience with image and video. It's my wife & I's 30th birthdays next year and we are planning a year of travel to celebrate. It got me thinking that it might be worthwhile to pickup a camera and take some stock footage throughout our travels. We'll be covering a wide variety of countries and terrains (from the Nepalese Himalaya down through India and over to Africa), so I figured it'd be an ideal opportunity to build out a varied portfolio of footage. Typically, when I consider uploading a new type of content, I like to set myself a monthly income goal, and to make it worthwhile carrying a camera with me, I think $1,000/month is a good starting point. So, to get to the meat of my question: How many uploaded items do you think will be required to earn $1,000/month from stock video? Also, some sub questions:
Thank you in advanced, I appreciate any insights you experienced pros can give me! 7
Image Sleuth / Re: Shutterstock itself using an image without permission« on: November 15, 2020, 05:56 »
They haven't stolen your work. This is an advertisement to sell your work.
It also isn't widespread, as it's a Dynamic Remarketing Ad. This means it's showing you products you've looked at. So, because you've browsed your own portfolio and looked at one of your images, Shutterstock is now showing that image to you in an ad. The same thing will happen to you when you visit other online retails, like Amazon, Walmart etc. You'll see the same products you look at on those sites show up in ads on 3rd party sites you visit. So, the "evidence" you're collecting is inside an echo chamber. Only you are seeing this ad, as you have looked at the image. 8
