Some videos are being rejected.

I have uploaded multiple versions of a scenes.  Some are being accepted but others are not.  I’ve taken some at different angles and with the subject performing the task differently.

Scene 1

“Throwing trash in trash bin walking towards the camera.”  Accepted

“Throwing trash in trash bin walking away from camera.”  Rejected - Aesthetic or commercial appeal of video

The camera was never moved for this scene

Scene 2

“Throwing trash in a trash bin and missing walking away from camera.”  Accepted

“Throwing trash in a trash bin and missing walking towards the camera.”  Rejected - Aesthetic or commercial appeal of video

The camera was never moved for this scene

Scene 3

Scene 3 has a man picking up trash at three different angles.  All three were rejected - Aesthetic or commercial appeal of video

Scene 4

“Flower in town with man in the background on a cell phone.”  Accepted

“Flower in town with man in the background texting.”  Accepted

The camera was never moved for this scene.  Both of these videos look almost completely identical.

I’m a little confused as to why some are accepted and why some are not.  I’m am trying to follow policy about “Similar content verse Spam ”

Correct answer MatHayward

We are usually more lenient with video than with photos regarding similar content though if it's too close we can't take it. We don't have an appeals process in place for rejected content though if you are confident the clips are different enough to provide additional value to potential customers you can resubmit for a second review as a one time exception.

Kind regards,

Mat Hayward
