Stock Footage is slowly becomming a viable alternative for content creators from all over the world. This has created a market for those who upload their stock footage online, either for exposure, for free, or for creating a source of passing income. However, in 2022, competition on the Stock Footage market is very high, which makes it harder to get your content viewed by others. If this is your case, don't be discouraged! There is opportunity in every challenge, such as following the trends!
What are the Stock Footage Trends for Summer 2022?
Summer is the great time to explore new places. In 2022, the stock video trends are:
1. Drone videos of exotic islands
If you are fortunate enough to live near one exotic island or you are planning to go on your Summer holiday to one, take a few minutes to take aerial footage with your drone. During this Summer Season, videos featuring Holiday destinations are in high demand.
2. Traditional Summer Festivals & Cultural Events
That cultural event or festival that is happening in your local community ever since you were a child might become your most popular video on a stock footage website. This year, make sure to take your video camera with you and show the world the beauty of your culture.
3. The Beach & The Ocean or The Sea
If you live near a beach, or you are having your Holiday near one, take a few minutes to create a few videos. During the Summer Season, many content creators are interested in purchasing stock videos featuring peaceful or beautiful places featuring the Beach and the waves. Don't forget to film the Ocean or the Sea at Sunset or Sunrise.
What Stock Videos are you planning to create this summer?
I think a small drone can't film over an entire island. I think you need the bigger drone which is over 250 g, which needs a permit to fly. Am I right?

It depends how big that island is and how much can a drone film from above. I never tried it but I guess it would be possible with a small drone, too.
This is the first time I am reading about stock footage. I saw many videos that used the same footage, I guess this is how they got it.
