GoPro is giving content creators a way to profit from their footage

As if making extreme videos with a GoPro wasn’t fun enough, now GoPro is allowing content creators to actually profit from the videos they make. The company has launched a new licensing portal that will allow content creators take their awesome GoPro footage and sell it to companies in the creative and entertainment industries, with prices starting at a rather enticing $1,000 per video. 

Adventurous videographers now have a new avenue to profit off their GoPro footage. The action-camera maker has launched a new content licensing portal that lets creative agencies and TV and film studios find and use quality GoPro videos, with prices starting at $1,000 per clip. GoPro Licensing will showcase new and popular content, and enable search and filtering using rich meta-data. It will also offer features like at-a-glance video previews, lightboxes for collecting and sharing clips and batch downloads to make it easy for creative teams to locate footage for their next project. According to AdWeek, the portal will feature over 600 videos from amateur and professional videographers who have signed licensing agreements with GoPro. As with other stock content services, prices for clips will vary depending on the nature of commercial use and distribution.
