PRO TIP
- Buyers prefer clips cleared for commercial use. To qualify, these shots should never show logos or 3rd party intellectual property. Jerseys with names on them require a signed property release from the owner and a signed model release from the person or people wearing them. Uniquely designed buildings, such as stadiums in England, require a signed property release from the owner. Please avoid logos on stadiums and banners. Any recognizable person in the clip should sign a model release.
- We highly recommend considering diverse actors or models of all ages, ethnicities, races, religions, genders, or sexual orientations.
- Choosing proper metadata is crucial for our search algorithm. Never stuff your metadata with irrelevant keywords.
