Dear reader,

For my master thesis in Human Centered Multimedia I'm researching if interpersonal communication in online microstock marketplaces could improve user experience and benefit the three stakeholders involved. These stakeholders are the contributors of microstock, the buyers and the marketplace itself.

I have posted an inquiry before on this website. Based on these results this concept was developed. See  link towards topic below.
https://www.microstockgroup.com/microstock-analytics/exploring-the-user-experience-and-(unmet)-needs-of-microstock-stakeholders/new/#new

I have developed an interactive prototype of a new concept that I would like you to try. This interactive prototype could be used in microstock marketplaces, the design is based upon unmet needs microstock contributor and buyers have.These needs were researched in a inquiry among microstock marketplace users. Some of the main findings in this research where that contributors like to learn more and receive more insight in the needs of microstock buyers through a form of interpersonal communication. On the other end, microstock buyers state that there is room for improvement on successfully finding the content they are looking for.

This interactive prototype is integrated as a addition in a existing marketplace Shutterstock, one of the largest microstock marketplaces in the world.

I have developed two short use cases, one for microstock buyers and one for microstock contributor and at the end a short questionnaire to learn from your user experience.
This whole process will take only 15 minutes of your time. Your participation is much appreciated.

Please note, there are two different inquiries, one for contributors and one for microstock buyers, please follow the correct order and links as described below.

The interactive prototype (for both microstock buyers and contributors):

Dear forum members,

For my master Human Centerd Multimedia, I would like to find out more about the user experience and unmet needs microstock contributors and microstock buyers have. Therefore I made an inquiry for both parties. I'm not sure if I'm allowed to post this here, but I will try to benefit the community by sharing the outcomes.

I think I will find mostly contribtors on this forum.
You will find my contributor inquiry here:

And if there are any buyers of microstock, please go here:
