Course Details

Today, more stock photos are created, sold, and used than ever before. While this makes it near-impossible for photographers and agencies to continue profiting from high-priced stock, microstock is thriving.  During this panel discussion, microstock agencies, successful microstockers and traditional stock photographers will discuss current trends and opportunities in the microstock market.

Event Format:

6:15: Doors open
7:00: Panel begins
8:30: Meet the panelists at our cash bar reception
