i've noticed that footage descriptions are still getting shortened. like in this example below:

TORONTO, ONTARIO - JUNE 24th: Protesters assemble at Queen's Park on June 24th, 2010, Toronto,…

In this case, the description is missing the important fact that this protest took place as part of the G20 summit.

this issue was addressed sometime ago but looks like it never got resolved. shutterstock what is the status on this one?

We just still need a little more room for editorial footage descriptions. After the byline there isn't enough characters left to adequately and fairly give an editorial description that the buyer deserves. For editorial because of the nature of needing background and explanation, 300 characters is more in line with the standard 200 for commercial.
