We want to see your vision, authenticity and creativity in your content, so we accept video created from smartphones and the camera you normally use for your productions. Customers prefer 4K video, however we accept HD video.
We have also recently launched our new Video Vocabulary Guide where you will have access to key information about camera movements, positioning, editing, equipment and much more that can help you elevate and improve your content and keywording.

Important tips for shooting video:
- Check for visible logos and trademarks, especially those that may become visible when moving the camera;
- Make planned, motivated camera moves that help tell the video's "story" or emphasize its underlying concept;
- Use natural post‑production treatments, don't oversaturate colors;
- Vary your views and compositions, include close‑up details, medium and wide angles;
- Play with different perspectives such as shots from above, from behind, POV, etc.;
- Show different times of day in scenarios;
- Look for good natural light: don't shoot in the dark, flat lighting and avoid overly bright light;
- Think about copy space when composing your videos;
- Always check your camera settings before shooting a video;
- Video lengths between 5 and 30 seconds, but the average is between 10 and 20.
