New Sites - General / OverflightStock

Hi,

is anybody uploading their videos or photos to overflightstock.com agency?

If yes, what is the experience and general impression?

If no. Why no?

For some reason it seems good to me, maybe because videos are priced nicely (high), commission is 50%, it is well organised, and response from the guy operating the agency is really fast. Thing i don't like is that the site has no contributor backend, which means there is no contributor login, or any kind of control of your videos, or financial stuff.

Thank you!

General - Stock Video / Where do you sell?
« on: September 18, 2017, 03:35 »
Hi,

i am just wondering where do you sell your videos? What are good places for selling? I am in microstock for about 2 years now, and have portfolio of ~400 clips. Not that much for 2 years in this, but time is huge resource here. This is side income for me (which i want to expand but in the right places).

So, i have tried:


Are 2-3 on SS and P5 each for a month small amount of sales for ~400 clips?

With VB and ME i get me good return if they sell, but i don't want to waste time with ME for example if it will not sell. I do have batches of ~15GB to upload on 4Mbps, and i have tons of video to prepare for stock. Just looking for the right way to direct energy and time spent on this.
I earn my living by filming with drones, so bulk of my portfolio are aerial shots.

Feel free to comment portfolio as well :)

What is your  experience with ClipCanvas agency?
I have around 120 clips there and no sales at all. And i actually stopped uploading there due to their 750MB file size limit. I export everything in photojpeg, most of my footage now is 4K, so my files are 1-3GB in size...

It always looked so-so to me.I would like to hear some experiences if possible :)

Hi people, i know this is old and unanswered topic but, can someone please tell me why is there such a difference in exporting photojpeg vs h264. I use Premiere Pro CC, video is slightly color corrected. It is the same clip, after rendering nothing is touched, just exported in two different ways. I added two print screens below so you can see the difference. There is a very noticeable shift in contrast, even in sharpness i would say.

Photojpeg settings:
  • Quality at 90, Max render and depth quality
H.264 settings:
  • Profile-High
  • Level-5.1
  • VBR,2 pass
  • Max render quality and depth
  • Target Bitrate 70/ Max 101

- PHOTOJPEG
- H.264
 or
Folder

Any help/suggestion is much appreciated.
