Hey, I'm relatively new, and just adventuring into creating stock footage since a couple years (I'm working and studying so no full dedication, but I'll have plenty of time in some months.)

I have successfully created a portfolio in videohive, shutterstock, videoblocks (now storyblocks) and some others that I now discarded, so I can focus on the ones that sell/pay better. I'm sticking with Shutterstock and Videoblocks. Videohive is an exception. I use it because it allows to search and find out what's selling and build some statistics on  ideas to produce. I've sold many items there, but it really pays too little.

Now, Pond5 was always a mistery. I have bought clips there before and I thought it was great, but when I started submitting, my uploads didn't get reviewed.

I went up adding my portfolio there, some 32 clips. Then I quit trying, since all were marked 'Pending review' for several months.

Now, after more than 2 years, they finally REJECTED all of the 32 clips at once.

For the records, I am a video and animation professional and have worked at both sides of advertising agencies for years (as art director and as video provider). I know that is no warranty of acceptance or quality, and I'm sure there are lots of professionals that are better than me, but I'm pretty sure of what is useful for video, and I have been selling the same clips at at least 3 stock companies for the last couple years.

Is that what I should expect from Pond5?
