How much can you make with microstock sites?

Selling video clips at Shutterstock and iStock

Share

Shutterstock and iStockphoto are now allowing video submissions to sell short video clips to local news stations, documentary producers, and the like. If you can produce video footage that would be useful to these types of projects, it could be well worth your while to upload them to Shutterstock or iStockphoto.

This is a short sample clip I took to submit to Shutterstock. I can imagine local newscasts  using this clip in a story about recent Supreme Court proceedings, or documentary filmmakers using it in a commentary about a particular case, and so on.

Stock footage is film or video content generally between five and 60 seconds in length. The subject can be almost anything: a car driving by, fireworks exploding, or a glass of wine being poured. We are interested in any content that might be of use to a stock footage buyer.

Stock footage is used for a variety of purposes including movies and film, T.V. advertisements, news broadcasts, educational videos, websites, business presentations, and more.

Anyone can apply to become a videographer on iStockphoto. Contributors must begin by reading a brief online tutorial by clicking on the “Upload Files” link, and then pass a short test based on this tutorial. After you have successfully completed the test, you are asked to submit 3 sample video clips, which are inspected by our inspection team. Once the application is approved, you will be able to submit video clips to our inspectors for approval. The 3 sample clips are not automatically accepted, so you will need to resubmit those clips to our inspectors for approval.
