Я перешел на уровень 2, но все еще 10 центов? Если 15% заработка составляет 10 центов, что такое 20% заработка ? 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 12 I closed my video footage sales license about 3 days ago and haven't heard a word. I don't expect to either. Pond 5 paid me $10.00 for a video sale on the same day Shutterstock paid me .26 cents for the same video footage. They are putting all of us to a slow death. Anybody out there working with Adobe Stock? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Only worthless standard-answers... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Socialize our production exclusively. Everything else is patches that will break off sooner or later. Misery for all. To clarify, SS's system is almost identical to a communist system, not capitalism. I recommend reading the Communist Manifesto and Wealth of Nations to better understand the definitions. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Recomiendo leer el Manifiesto Comunista y La riqueza de las naciones para comprender mejor las definiciones. Como alguien que estudió sociología y políticas creo que tu comparación de SS con el Comunismo es muy singular, apuesto que si a SS le dices que son Comunistas se parten de risa. De todos modos aquí no estamos para polemizar con cuestiones vanas. He montado comunas y cooperativas y sé lo que digo, afirmo que es el mejor sistema para que los fotógrafos (o cualquier trabajador por cuenta ajena) podamos ser dueños del sistema de producción y no depender de las astucias "Comunistas" de los CEO de turno. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 13 You could have earned so much more, Shutterstock actually wrote to me today, again noticing that I haven’t uploaded anything since this pricing structure change was forced on all contributors. Yes, I could have and earned Shutterstock and myself more money. So could all the other contributors, who have stopped uploading out of protest or even gone so far as to deactivate or even delete their accounts. How about you take your contributors seriously and pay a fair share of royalties, Shutterstock? Then you’ll get loads of good quality & fresh content and all of us can earn more together. It should be a partnership between artist and agency with the shared interest of generating income together. This is an open market, we aren’t slaves and we can chose where to sell or not to sell our photos, illustrations and videos. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It would also be interesting to know how many other providers have also received this message. I haven't received anything like this. However, I'm one of the low uploaders, so shutterstock probably doesn't think I'm interesting. Anyways: every line you write is absolutely correct. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So it hurts them after all that many contributors do not act in the way they want to. 8 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
