Creative Brief: Fit for Work

Keyword Code: FITWORKP5BRIEF

Business is one of Pond5’s primary subject categories and healthy business practices are a hot topic in that category. It’s been proven that well-being in the workplace is crucial to a company’s success — American companies alone lose $300 billion a year due to absenteeism, poor performance, and health costs. Naturally, it makes sense that buyers are searching for business images that promote a healthy workplace, a diverse cast of employees, and a variety of themes associated with well-being.

Creative Businessman Entering With Bicycle at Modern Office by fsuffert

Pro-Tip: It’s important to prop your shoot with minor incidentals, things that you can drop in with the least amount of effort or time. A shot that is peppered with more than one strong concept will be seen by more buyers searching for concepts outside the primary theme. For instance, adding a rolled-up yoga mat over the arm of a businesswoman arriving at the office could appeal to a health-and-fitness brand more than a straightforward shot. The same could be said for a clip that portrays a businessman eating a salad at his desk. Adding these subtle details to your shots can potentially amount to more views and greater revenue.

Location Diversity: Urban, Suburban, and Rural
