Q&A

What exactly is meant by "Creative" images?

“Creative” refers to art-directed images and video intended for any and all uses, including use in commercial projects like advertising, websites, blogs, presentations, video productions, as well as virtually any other project you can imagine, within the terms of our content license agreement.  These are visuals created to promote, support, and endorse products and ideas.  This content can be used in commercial products as it is fully released (meaning person and places depicted have signed releases permitting such use).

What’s the best way to search for a person and get shots of that person, not shots where that person is merely mentioned in caption. For example: Photos of Vladimir Putin, not photos of protests of Putin.

For Editorial stills, use the ‘Specific People’ filter. There is no concomitant filter available for Editorial video.
