One of Shutterstock's typical rejections is for noise.  I can usually fix stills by tweaking detail and structure.  Are there similar fixes when submitting video?  (I don't have photoshop, just iMovie and Lightroom.) Thanks.

Yes, you can fix noise with video software also. Sorry, I am not familiar with iMovie,  I am not sure if is possible to do it with IMovie.
.  Have you a software to recommend that cleans video?
I am using neat video, zastavkin already mention this one, I do not have Topaz Video Enhance AI, but I was thinking will be good I am using Topaz for photo and works pretty good

Who will now receive more money - photographers or video content creators?
If I am correct will be agency

Can you explain to me in short how my video can be Signature/Signature or
Essentials Video? It was only for exclusive?

Essentials is for non-exclusive, so all non-exclusive are screwed.  Signature is exclusive, so it's their way of paying more to exclusives who get their content selected for the Signature collection.  The royalty bump will come at the cost of non-exclusives. Basically another pay cut. 

"Every file on iStock falls into one of two collections. Our Essentials collection gives you the everyday content you need (non-exclusive and exclusive non-signature), while the Signature collection features millions of premium handpicked stock files that you can only get from us (meaning exclusive)

Thank You Mantis

Dear colleagues,

I've just published this blog post on a trend that I potentially see occurring soon (hope I'm not giving these agency decision-makers any ideas):

Quote
During the past six months, most notably, Wirestock and Picfair have dropped their respective statuses as free to upload stock agencies in what is a potentially significant trend for contributors. In this blog post Ill discuss whether this business model will become more commonplace and if it may present itself as a threat to contributors income in a time when were already experiencing diminishing returns coupled with rising inflation. Or perhaps, this fee will be an opportunity!

Hi Alex I think will never happens to me, I just close my Pic ,,UN,, fair account today and I am not really planing paid for selling my images or footage in future.

The cover is nonsense, the quality is poor. But where to buy such a remote control?
Cover is fine, you can also use it for money or ID when you are on boat remote is also from Amazon https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07MR1PHPZ?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details nothing luxury but works after is set up with blue tooth

Hi, I'm Alessandro Brencich from mediaCastpro
Is this an exclusive agency or is it possible to sell videos uploaded to other agencies?
It was up to You

66
And what are your conclusions and suggestions?
Simple answer, just do it if you have any camera with you. Take a chance, You can also experiment with time lapse. 

67
I upload to my YT short video about doing or not Editorial stock videos https://youtu.be/Z21gMMxWvYE

68
Thank you, I will certainly try some higher pricing, especially for exclusive editorial content that is unique.
What do you shoot in editorial that you think will be bought from you? Usually nobody needs an editorial.

Hmm, why do you think nobody needs editorial ?

General Photography Discussion / Re: Real Estate Photography
« on: April 25, 2023, 13:32 »
I work with real estate agency around 4-5 years before us real estate market crash. If I  remember correctly  I have $190 per interior and exterior and $120 interior only.
I work in really high end market , no house under 1M, most is much over 2M and higher.
I am happy with pricing -  no, but I have big flexibility and is not problem for me do it 1,2 or 3 houses in one good sunny day with puffy clouds and blue sky, no bad money per one short day. When is something more difficult /for magazine, additional lighting/ it was around $500 or more.
I miss this days, very easy money. When I start first time with real estate i have $15 per house exterior /film and processing is paid with agency/  not relay disaster also, 12 -15 houses per day but you need good route  for that, no gps yet. Big plus is meting new people an also new project for me.

Just published a very practical case-study from a 10-day trip in Spain where I uploaded 342 assets.

Will I be able to cover my costs, probably not! But I had a good time :)

Yes, must be also about good time other ways is just work :)
