Could someone tell me how to create a stock image

1.Flood the area with light.

2. Keep the image in focus.

3. Use the best quality settings you can to get the best image quality.

4. Remember the “rule of thirds.” - divide your image in thirds.

5. Don’t take just one shot.- take lots of photos.

6. Create visual interest.
Make the images interesting by shooting from multiple angles and distances. Take one wide angle shot. Get another that’s closer and tighter. And, then do a close up, or even extreme close up. Get down low. Get up high. Tilt the camera a little. You don’t want all of your photos to look the same or be from the same angle.

7. Use real employees to make the images authentic.

People like to see co-workers and themselves in the elearning courses. Take advantage of this. It’s also a way to build some interest in the course prior to roll out since the break room will be abuzz, eagerly anticipating the final product.

8. Don’t use real employees because they could be losers.

There’s nothing worse than having John Doe (or your state’s governor) in your ethics course and then find out two weeks later that he was fired for lying about his sales quotas or worse.

9. Get signed releases.

You want to get signed releases to make sure all of your bases are covered.

10. Share your photos.

Sometimes all you need is a guy in a hard hat, or someone who’s not in a suit. These aren’t always easy to find. To give you advice.And, it’s not always cost effective to buy one, either.

Hope this helps you to take a stock photo☺
