With the growth of microstock footage/video, I thought an independent forum (like those that cater to the photo community) would serve this community well. So, I'm working on creating one! It's still in very early development, but I have a basic framework in place (on a temporary server) and I'd love to get a few opinions.

A few questions first:

1. Is there such a forum already?
-I haven't found a site devoted to microstock videographers yet.

2. Is there any interest in such a forum?
- I hope so.

3. What would you like to see in a microvideo forum?
- I'm working on an idea for a monthly video contest with rewards like frontpage referral links, among other features.

4. Can anyone help?
- I am neither an expert videographer nor an expert web designer. I'm willing to put in a fair amount of time on this project, but I'm sure I can't do it alone. Any help would be greatly appreciated; from the odd tip or suggestion to a full fledged partner. Let me know if you're interested.

Anyway, please visit: http://piccillophoto.com/microstockvideogroup/index.php

Edit: Now you can use just http://www.microstockvideogroup.com

Feel free to register and post. It's still early, and probably very buggy, but there's only one way to get started, right?

I hope to see you there (and here as well, of course),
-Nick


I know that I will not have the time to check SS forum and yours but go for it if you have the time.

cheers,

fred

Hi, you might want to take a look at this site. They had the same idea but they focus on photography. They did something interesting... they have general discussion areas, and then they have a section for the "6 Big" sites and a few other specific sections. You might consider breaking down your forum in a similar fashion.

I like this forum.

Regards and best of luck.
