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?

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?

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?

I have noticed that when recording in 4K 30p on my Android phone, in fact there can be small variations in the frame rate. Some videos are 30p, some slightly less (e.g. 29.85). Will this be a problem when uploading to SS and P5? I know that strictly speaking they want 29.97p or 30p. Is there a way to handle this or is it not realistic to use Android smartphone for video?.

Thanks

Just tried a dji osmo mobile 2 gimbal with my motorola g5 plus phone in a store with the dji app.
It seems when recording at 4K, it uses a slow frame rate of 23fps. The phone with it's native video recorder app does 29.97fps at 4K.

Anyone have any idea why the dji app uses an odd slow frame rate of 23fps?

I am primarily a stills shooter and want to shoot some stock video. What would be a good cam choice for under $1000? Maybe the Panasonic G85?
I would be shooting people stuff, but not what would be characterized as high speed action shots. More like people in offices etc. Would like to have stabilization.

Had been using Resolve 12.5 on Win10 with no problems. Decided to try Resolve 14. I installed it, and basically, all it does is come up let you select or create a new project and then simply crash! Anyone else here experienced this and know of a solution?

iStockPhoto.com / iStock - Minimum Paypal Payout?
« on: July 25, 2017, 15:00 »
Is there a minimum amount $$ you need to reach to get a monthly paypal payout on iStock?

Thanks below! I knew paper check was $100, but didn't know about paypal, I guess they just won't send you any money no matter what
your payout method is until you reach $100!

Pond5 / Quicker Review Times?
« on: June 07, 2017, 16:50 »
Just had a number of videos reviewed in about a week (vs. 6 to 8 weeks in the past) on POND5. Are others seeing quicker review times as well?

Now that we can no longer look at our file downloads and status on iStock.com, How do exclusives see which files are S and which are S+?

I have a Fotolia contributor account and tried to sign into Adobe Stock for the first time with my Fotolia ID and password and it did not work.
What do I do?

I need to sign in to Adobe, because it seems to be the only way to find out what the "Technical Error" was in my video submission :(

Adobe Stock / Fotolia Email: It's All About the Title
« on: April 07, 2016, 08:40 »
This email talks about the importance of the title. It states: "Regarding the Adobe Stock search engine, your file titles play as much a role as your keywords for file relevancy. It is best to keep it short and simple and keep the title in the same language as your keyword!"

Are titles as important as keywords on Fotolia.com also?

Adobe Stock / Fotolia - Keyword Ordering on Upload
« on: March 03, 2016, 10:15 »
Just received an email from Fotolia talking about the importance of keyword ordering. Frankly, I use LR which forces alphabetic ordering of keywords and can't see spending the time after upload to rearrange keywords on individual files. Do people actually do this? Any evidence on keyword order impact?

General - Stock Video / How to Embed Metadata in video files?
« on: February 29, 2016, 09:39 »
I generate video files out of Lightroom and Photoshop. However, any metadata I enter does not get embedded in to the video files I generate.
Is it possible to embed metadata into video files...and if so how?

Pond5 / POND5 Editorial Content Not Indicated as Such?
« on: January 30, 2016, 22:33 »
Just took a look at some POND5 content. There's a lot that would be considered "editorial" (e.g. unreleased people, logos etc.) however, I didn't see anywhere on their pages where it says "for editorial use only etc etc..." What's up with that? Did I miss something?

Adobe Stock / Fotolia Payouts - Paypal Overhead Cost?
« on: September 29, 2015, 08:58 »
New to Fotolia. They only payout royalties via PayPal or Skrill. Looking into this, I discovered that Paypay will charge a 2.9% fee on monies transferred to my bank account. So if I have $100 in royalties, I will only see $97.10.  I am in the US.

  - Am I missing something here?
  - Is Skrill any different?

Thanks.
