Remember all the excitement from the last Microstock Expo 2013 in Berlin? A fellow photographer just reminded me about all the great content in the 24+ hours of MEXPO video. This gave me the idea to give something back to this great microstock community which made that event so great.

So I spoke with my co-creator of the conference, Lee Torrens of Microstock Diaries, and minutes later the videos from both conferences (2011 and 2013) are no longer �199.

They�re now all available free to watch here (with a registration!)

Some highlights:

• 36h of high-quality videos covering both entire events
• Learn from the best stock photographers and videographers on the planet
• Learn in minutes what these guys took years to figure out
• Find answers to: How to find niches to shoot for, what keywords to use, how to shoot effectively, how to optimize your workflow
• Includes masters such as Yuri Arcurs, Andres Rodriguez, Simon Krzic, Bruce Livingstone, and Scott Braut, among many other
• Covers topics of production strategy, metadata techniques, trend analysis and everything an ambitious microstocker could want
• Also includes valuable insights for agencies and other businesses in the marketplace via the agency executive presentations and the 3-hour Agency Masterclass

Thanks again to all of our speakers, moderators, friends and business partners who have made both events so enjoyable and so packed with awesome value. Now get yourself a nice cup of coffee and start the show!

Looking at the top-selling photos and concepts from different agencies can be inspirational for those of us who don't think we know it all.

(I know this was originally posted in March but I guess there were a few new comments so glad it popped up when I looked for "new content") Thanks Amos.

You are most welcome - happy to help with some inspiration here.

Many of the 50 were spot on.

If you list every possible trend in the market, surely you will get a few right.

All we do is asking the certain stock agencies for their trends. We always try to have a diversity in the type of agency such as Photocase or Stocksy compared with Asian based like Pixta.

I agree this forum is the best source at least for contributors. Amos Struck has several news sites regarding Microstock (i.e. http://www.stockphotosecrets.com/, http://www.fotos-verkaufen.de/, http://www.microstock-news.com/ etc.) some are more geared towards buyers!

Thanks for mentioning my websites (there is a , behind http://www.stockphotosecrets.com which leads to a wrong URL).

You actually missed the one which is geared toward photographers: http://www.mystockphoto.org/ there we also have a newsletter which we use to keep you posted about the industry and about interesting news, interviews etc.

Thank you everybody for tuning in and for your kind feedback. I think it was a great intro into mobile stock photography, we even had a live demo where Morgan showed how he edit his image with Snapseed before he uploads them into Fotolia Instant (maybe you have missed that Sean).

We are also working on expanding the presention to have it catered more towards stock photographers. Robb will also try to include some thoughts on how to proceed as a single stock photographer without a big team.

Thanks for all your feedback, we really appreciate it.
