Creating footage that represents all of us

play-button

Stock footage should help anyone tell their story. But to do that, it needs to represent the lives of as many people from different communities as possible - and creating authentic and diverse stock needs people from those underrepresented communities behind the camera.

Re: Stock is an ongoing initiative created as a reply to your comments, emails, and more demanding more diversity in our library. We're hiring filmmakers from different communities to create footage of those underrepresented in stock. So far, we've built partnerships with creators from Black, LGBTQIA+, and Indigenous communities, successfully widening where we source content from. You can find the footage created through Re: Stock in sets of collections exclusive to Storyblocks as a part of our mission to expand our library to represent all of us and help tell the stories of today and tomorrow.

Under Representation

Footage of non-white people make up only a small part of most stock libraries.

Lack of Diversity

Most stock is shot and produced in primarily white eastern European countries.

Taking Accountability

You demanded better - so we're committing to change.

Demand-driven change

Rebuilding how we source stock

Re: Stock is a response to the demand for content that more accurately reflects the world today from member comments, tweets, and emails, our own internal conversations, and the growing dialogue about the importance of representation in media.

Re: Stock actively and purposefully widens how we source content in the stock industry by supporting underrepresented communities in front of and behind the camera. By hiring these filmmakers, the stock footage they create can show genuine portrayals and experiences of people of different races, ethnicities, ages, religions, abilities, sexual orientations, and more.

When we launched Re: Stock in early 2020, we committed to having 20% of our footage with people have Black, Indigenous, and people of color models. We hit that goal in October of 2021 and continue to invest in this commitment to representation. We’re now at over 25% BIPOC representation with the people footage in our library, and continue to prioritize this initiative as we grow our library.
