I've had over 1000 clips on Revostock for about a year and a half and 250
or so have sold at least once, some up to 6 times. I have 100 clips on Istock
and about the same percentage has sold.

What kind of content do you shoot?

I ask because I didn't want to upload hundereds of clips to a site that pays you something like $50 a clip. I did have a company that saw some of my storm / tornado footage through some Discovery Channel connections and contacted me, thier company is called Thought Equity Motion. I looked into it a little bit and saw thier HD tornado clips for about 15 seconds sell for $3,500 each. The only thing is they won't deal with anyone you have to have some pretty high quality stuff.

Has anyone here done business with Thought Equity Motion? Good? Bad?
