Default No rubbish allowed :)

Quote: Correct me if I am wrong but isnt there a rpoblem with all this. Surely stock footage needs to be very professionally shot on very good equipment or it is worthless..... Hence the prices often charged.

Surely a 'roll your own' collection of stock footage will be for the most part unsaleable rubbish ?

----------------------------------------------------

Hi Mark. Well, all of our footage is screened before it is accepted and posted to the site. It must be shot on a prosumer or better camera. It won't be unsaleable rubbish any more than the footage shot with the thousands upon thousands of Canon, Panasonic, JVC prosumer+ cameras produce rubbish. These are cameras you see used in broadcast daily. Not to mention users of the Panasonic HVX200 who are now shooting full HD for around $5000. The site definitely is not a free for all where someone can post consumer level footage or footage that is poorly shot or composed.

The site isn't for everyone, but rather for the thousands upon thousands of people using these type of cameras or better who want to have an outlet to sell their footage, but also want to be able to purchase footage at reasonable prices.

Please let me know if I can answer any other questions.

Thanks!
