Question

I am seeking clarification regarding recent video rejections

Hello Adobe Stock Contributors and Adobe Team,

I am seeking clarification regarding recent video rejections for "Quality Issues."

Over the past review cycle, I submitted a batch of AI-generated 4K videos created using a consistent workflow. I have also included a Google Drive folder containing two rejected video files for reference and review.

Workflow:

• High-resolution AI image generation (4K source images)
• Kling 3.0 Native 4K video generation
• Adobe Premiere Pro export
• QuickTime ProRes 422 LT master files
• 3840×2160 resolution
• 24 fps
• Rec.709 color space
• Maximum Depth enabled
• Maximum Render Quality enabled

Recent submission batch:

• Submitted: 33 videos
• Approved: 1 video
• Pending review: 5 videos
• Rejected for "Quality Issues": 27 videos

Many of these videos were rejected for "Quality Issues," while only a small number were approved.

I understand that Adobe reviews for technical problems such as:

• Flickering
• Frame instability
• Morphing artifacts
• Compression issues
• Temporal inconsistencies

However, I am struggling to understand the specific reason for rejection because I can find approved AI-generated videos on Adobe Stock that appear visually similar in subject matter and style.

Examples of approved videos:

https://stock.adobe.com/in/video/medium-shot-portrait-of-an-indian-woman-in-her-40s-wearing-salwar-kameez-in-a-minimalist-background/894943187

My goal is not to criticize these approved assets. Rather, I am trying to better understand the technical differences that reviewers may be identifying.

My questions are:

  1. What specific technical issues are reviewers identifying in rejected AI-generated videos?

  2. Have there been any recent changes to review standards for AI-generated human subjects, portraits, facial consistency, jewelry, clothing details, or temporal stability?

  3. Are contributors expected to perform additional temporal consistency checks beyond standard visual review?

  4. Is there any official guidance available for AI-generated video contributors to better understand current acceptance criteria?

For reference, I have included a Google Drive folder containing two rejected original video files:

If Adobe staff or experienced contributors can provide examples of the types of temporal artifacts or quality issues that commonly lead to rejection, it would be extremely helpful.

Thank you for your time and feedback.

    To me (and I suspect to the moderator), they don’t just change color or reflect light different, they seem to almost disappear.

    The dots keep changing and never stay gold.

    I will add that on other forums, contributors submitting AI videos are all experiencing higher than usual (or even complete) rejections on submissions. It would appear the moderators are expecting extremely high quality AI videos and even the slightly issue will result in a rejection. If your first video, for example, the fingers aren’t sharp in every frame, especially near the end.
