Hello everybody,

It is my very first post on this forum, actually I did search for stock footage communities or websites and microstockgroup is the only relevant one that came up

I received an invitation from Shutterstock to join their new platform : OFFSET Video which is launching around summer as per their email.

Actually, I did not know about OFFSET Photo but of course Shutterstock claimed that it is a big success. I checked the website and it does not look bad.. I searched on this forum and I could not find posts where actual OFFSET contributors could tell whether it is working for them or not.

Also, I looked on Shutterstock and it seems that they an office in UK beside US and phone numbers in other countries but do they have offices with proper representation, sales and consulting services in all those countries as well?

Thanks!

Thanks for your input.

No one seems to talk about their sales for some reason, can only deduce that they maybe aren't as fantastic as everyone is led to believe, or the sales are so good the current contributors are scared of saying so in case too many others get on board?

I don't think they do overly well no one does these days.
