General - Stock Video / Re: How is it better: Using an agency or several different ones?« on: November 24, 2018, 05:34 »
I sell my videos on different agencies!
I have always asked myself if it wouldn't be better to stay only at Pond5... What drives me down off this ideia is the fact that Pond5 have its "dry seasons" too. Shutterstock sometimes saves my life, despite the low price business practice. 28

Sales have been disappearing very fast there.

General - Stock Video / Re: Has anyone ever sold 4K clip on Storyblocks/Videoblocks that didn't get refunded« on: September 17, 2018, 05:33 »
I sold only 1 4K video in more than 3 years there. I have always found this very odd...

Absolutely dry here. Worst than ever with a 5K portfolio

Hello,
Is anyone here experiencing a slow server problem when uploading through FTP ? I have a fast internet connection here. Same files uploaded to other agencies servers are going 10x faster than shutterstocks lately. Really annoying 34

I make the same, but with more than 5K videos

VideoBlocks / Re: Storyblocks actually listens to contributor complaints! How can that happen?« on: August 18, 2018, 06:58 »
my bad... I thought it was on the 15 august the whole changes.
2 months gap between the 2 different changes... Really smart move from them 36
VideoBlocks / Re: Commission cut« on: August 18, 2018, 04:48 »
You are right my friend.
I just read more carefully the same email they sent and found out this; "By October 15, 2018, we will raise the publicized price of HD footage to $79. This is the price that guests will pay to purchase an HD clip. " I guess until 15 october price will remain at 49$... 37

Where is the 79$ sale?

VideoBlocks / Re: Commission cut« on: July 19, 2018, 02:20 »
Istock did that years ago... I deleted all my port and never looked back.

2 videos sold for 1,50$ only this month. Last month I had 1 more... Feels terrible!!!

VideoBlocks / Re: 4K sales« on: May 24, 2018, 02:03 »
Finally got my first 4K sale!!! hallelujah
After almost 3 years... 42
VideoBlocks / Re: Sales have peaked a little over a year ago on VideoBlocks.« on: April 13, 2018, 02:56 »
I guess that explains the decreasing on my sales every year and the fact that I never sold a single 4K video there.
43
VideoBlocks / Re: 4K sales« on: April 11, 2018, 03:42 »
@SuperPhoto
I sell 4K videos with a certain regularity in P5, SS and AS. Videoblocks have NEVER sold a single 4K video in 2 years or more. I have More then 2.100 4K videos in my portfolio... I don't know what it is, but it sure looks very very strange to me! 44
VideoBlocks / Re: 4K sales« on: April 10, 2018, 02:28 »
Almost 1 year later since I open the topic with many more videos and still not a single 4K...
They keep selling a lot but downscaled to 1080p. 45
Shutterstock.com / Re: New approved content not showing up« on: April 09, 2018, 07:12 »
They had this problem a few weeks ago and then they fixed after 10 long days...
Now it seem to be happening again. We should all contact the support asap. 47

General - Stock Video / Re: Videoblocks/Storyblocks Refunding clips sales immediately after sale« on: October 29, 2017, 07:30 »
Very odd all those 4k clips being refunded!
Videoblocks is the only agence that has never sold a single 4K clip for me in 2 years. That is already strange by itself... And now Pond5 is getting money back too... Hard times!!! 49
Shutterstock.com / Re: 1,50$ video commission????« on: September 17, 2017, 04:37 »
For those who are interested, this is what they answered;
"We have checked this footage sales, and it seems like you were paid out accurately. The footage was purchased in a large package deal, which generated a payout of $1.50." ... Have you ever wondered why the rich stay rich, and the poor stay poor? 50
Shutterstock.com / 1,50$ video commission????« on: September 16, 2017, 07:28 »1,50$ is the lowest commission I ever got since "Istock times" (about 3years Ago) I didn't even know this was possible... ps: It's a 4K video at its origin |
