Digital Cinema Society Presentation: Monetizing Your Stock Footage
2008/11/04
How To Monetize Your Stock Footage is scheduled for November 15th 2008 at West Post Digital in Santa Monica. In this event the DCS will explore how Filmmakers, especially Cinematographers, who may have terrific footage in their library, or would like to go out and hunt for great saleable images in their downtime, can capitalize on these efforts.
Participants include Paula Lumbard from The Footage Bank, Carol Martin from The RED Footage Collective, Phil Bates from Artbeats, as well as Producer and DCS Advisory Board member, Barry Clark, who has greatly increased the return on many of his large screen format productions, by licensing their shots for use in other productions. Ken Michael, a RED camera Owner who keeps busy with his camera during downtime, by going out and shooting stock footage will also attend.
The meeting will cover what kind of images Stock Footage Reps are looking for, which images are the most valuable to them and the best and lowest quality format requirements for acquisition and delivery.
