Dear Shutterstock Contributor,
As the creative landscape evolves to include new uses for creative assets, Shutterstock wants artists to have the opportunity to take advantage of all the ways they can earn compensation for their work. Shutterstock is working to better support artists through ethically-sourcing our content, increasing transparency about its use, and financially compensating our contributors. Were excited to announce well now be accepting more assets into our library, following a change to how we process submissions.
Whats changing
Starting next week, Shutterstock will be introducing Data Licensing, a new opportunity that will include content that would otherwise not meet the criteria for our traditional stock marketplace. These assets will be found under your portfolio within a new section called Data catalog and will be available for licensing as datasets. Earnings on assets within this library will be paid via the Shutterstock Contributor Fund learn more about it here.
