We enjoy the speed you‘re naturally speaking. This give‘s the impression of a real conversation and it lets room for your sympathetic, authentic way of explaining. Keep that we would say 😊
20 to 25 minutes is my maximum attention span for TH-cam, but most important is the information density. You're providing good detail and you're charismatic, so I'm subscribed 🙂
I honestly think your natural pace is perfect don’t speed up because somebody says you should and don’t slow down because somebody says you should just do what’s comfortable for you because otherwise, it won’t seem natural. I enjoy your videos very much. Your content is good your mind is always moving so therefore what you’re doing is moving does that make sense? I find this very interesting and helpful because I’m new at this. You have so many great ideas and you share them as you think of them. I also appreciate your honesty about your earnings - you work very hard! But you’ve given me a reality check to not have high expectations on the income and to do it because I enjoy it.🌸🙏🏻🙋🏻♀️
Your own pace is fine. No need to change the way you are doing it. Love watching you as you make me laugh because at times you do silly things and I love your laugh. It breaks it up and I seem to learn a lot from you. You seem to have fun with what you do. You inspire me to pick up my camera daily.
@@wollertz Just went into my local thrift shop looking for props and found a fantastic miniature shopping trolley, only £2 . Now I'm OK for a few thousand shots.
Thank You for sharing. Around 10-14 years ago I spent hours and hours in book store and photograph to my phone any interesting ideas from book and magazines. I am sometimes looking back to this old ideas and try refresh with something new and mine
I'm going to take a swing at selling stock photos and video this year, so a fast-paced presentation about finding ideas suits me. Big thing for me is to just remember to take more pictures. I got a couple of new lenses last week; still haven't tried them. Okay, I've been busy with some other stuff, but I still need to get out there and make the camera go clickity-click more often.
Hi 😊. So to answer your question...I think the speed of your videos is just a bit too fast, maybe just slow it down 10%. But TBH you've pretty much nailed it and we love your channel. One thing you may wish to explain at some point is how you choose which catagory you select for your pictures. For instance, I uploaded some red love hearts with a pink background to Shutterstock yesterday (valentines day) and I really struggled to find a suitable catagory. In the end I went for miscellaneous and business/finance. So a video which gives some guidance on that area would be very welcome. Thanks for the amazing content! 👍👍
This is your 5th video that I have watched because of the honesty and ideas. yes, the pace is good. btw maybe you want to fix the timestamps in this vid. I'll email you a portrait picture for review but I have a question first: In one of the videos you described the process of uploading images and creating keywords through Lightroom. Do the stock sites "know" how to read the keywords from the JPG file? tnx
Thank you! I'll check the time stamps! Nad yes, the exported jpgs save the metadata including keywords and descriptions, lightroom allows you to select how much info you would like stored directly on to the exported file in the export settings
@@ivanmaguire2277 Shutterstock allows you to keep track by set or to publish the sets giving you more control, adobe does something similar but can only feature 2 sets at a time
Very helpful videos. I find many TH-cam videos (regardless of topic or presenter) are way too fast. It becomes like a babbling noise to me so I would join the “slow down” school of thinking.
Hi . Thank you for your channel, it's one of the few I follow. Do you think it's bad right now to just upload AI images to Adobe Stock and photos taken by me to Shutterstock? I ask you this because Shuterstock has the option for editorial images and Adobe Stock doesn't have that option. This is one of the many questions I would like to ask you, but over time I will ask you the others. Continuation of your magnificent and videos. THANKS
Absolutely no problem, if you shoot non editorial images you can upload to both agencies. But yes, at the moment Adobe is only accepting illustrative editorials without people. Best of luck!
@@wollertz Hi. I use editorial on shutterstock because in my opinion (I don't know if it's wrong or not) as I put editorial only those who really want it will buy it and not people who buy packages and then maybe sell them as if they were theirs like what happens in Adobe stock. Thanks
@@wollertz My fear is that someone will download my photos and use them as if they were their own and in the editorial option only those who are interested can buy them and can also buy the same editorial photo in the commercial option. My photos and videos are from my travels and everyday life and as I'm afraid someone will "steal" them, I make them as editorials. The AI ones, as they are made by the program, I'm not so afraid of someone but "stealing" them and I've already noticed that unfortunately Adobe Stock takes forever to accept normal photos and the AI ones are almost instantaneous. Does anything else in your images use upscale? If so, what programs do you use? Thanks
@@bananaukra3235 that’s everyone’s fear, but the agencies protect you against theft the best they can, we have to trust them if we want to succeed. I haven’t done much upscaling at all, if I do I use photoshop, but for the most part it’s pretty straight forward 🤷♂️
@@wollertz I saw videos of people using Leonardo Ai to do uspcaling, that's why I was asking you. What I do is cut the images and upload them. I don't use photoshop or lightroom. I don't like doing retouches like that on photos, maybe that's why I haven't sold any editorial photos yet. Images ia, I already sold some Thanks
That was luck 😅 I was checking out of a stope and I saw it on the shelf, also friends that know my pictures call ,e from time to time telling me about pictures on billboards or magazines or even phone books, I have a video on how to find them when they are used online, but for printed mediums its almost impossible to track down th-cam.com/video/2godv2Doavc/w-d-xo.html
Be comfortable and go at your pace, people will still enjoy your videos as I do, Thank you.
Thank you! 🙏
I second this. Just do you. You have grown the channel already to here and I think it is successful.

Excellent advice! And your pacing has always been great!

clickity-click is a good thing 😅
Best of luck and remember stock is very slow to start, but before you know it'll snow ball
Another great video!
Glad you like them!
Love these tips! Thanks so much!
Im glad! Thanks for the comment!!
Great video as always!
I appreciate it!
Yeah, I say take your time. I don't hate the fast pace, but I think I lean towards the slower ...like you said, less forced.
Thank you! I appreciate the feed back and I will slow it down a little 🙏

@@wollertz I'm so stupid :) typing 50 keywords for each photo X 3 different stock sites....It took me hours. thanks!
Its a learning curve, you can't do the same for video, so I copy and paste 😅@@orpaztron

Do you sort your photos into sets? Your videos are brilliant, thank you
I have a few playlists trying to organize my catalog, so yes 😅
@Wollertz Photography Thank you for that. I haven't so
sold many, so I think that may help sales.

Do what feels right, and people will follow. Or they won't, and you'll fail. It's really 50/50. I'm not sure how to answer this.
🤔 Thanks for the help 🤣
@@wollertz any time! Just do what feels right; it might be good or really bad.
Slow explanations are better
Thanks!!
