blvdone Posted January 5 Share Posted January 5 Something like this would've never happened before. It would've been 8 video sales on Shutterstock and zero on Adobe Stock instead in the past. My guess is that the big video buyers and individual production people are buying on Adobe Stock instead of Shutterstock to support fellow creators in the industry. Also, the sad thing is that even if you have 8 video sales on Shutterstock, it could be like less than $3/video = $20 ish in total that's less than what you get from Adobe Stock for 1 HD video sale. It's sad. There's no hope in here. We just got to take whatever they give us without complaining. Link to post Share on other sites

Some people make 2-3x than that per month for 8,000 videos on Shutterstock. Not saying I did, but most people don't tell the world how much money they make. Link to post Share on other sites
Doug Jensen Posted January 15 Share Posted January 15 My monthly average at Shutterstock in 2020 was $2822.75 2 Link to post Share on other sites
