Question

Stock video duration

Hi


A simple and quick question: what is the minimum length allowed to upload stock videos. The maximum duration is 60 seconds but the minimum?

I have a couple of 3 seconds videos in review, but I found a comment from a stockero that says the minimum should be 5 seconds.

 

 

Thank you...

I'm not sure there are any hard & fast rules on this.  However 3 seconds of footage translates to 1 second of usable footage in the editing room.  That's barely a blink and doesn't leave the editor much to work with. For this reason, I would shoot at least 5 seconds of pristine footage.

 

Hope that helps.
