We’re looking to source pictures of one or multiple dogs/cats from a specific breed.
Deliverables
Submit a minimum of 500 images of a single breed of dog/cat.
Title your Mission’s submission using only the animal breed (for example, “Siamese Cat”).
It is OK to submit similar images. A series of similar images should not exceed 50.
What we mean by “similar” is, for example, the same situation, environment, but alternate positions or angles or composition between each image.
You can submit up to 5 Dog/Cat Missions of minimum 500 assets each.
You will receive the amount displayed in the Adobe Stock Contributor Portal for each approved Mission submission. Note, it’s the total amount per submitted Mission, not per individual asset.
Subject Guidance
Mission subjects are pictures of one or multiple dogs/cats of a specific breed.
Dog breed examples: Golden Retriever, Bulldog, Poodle, Corgi, Terrier, Labrador, Husky, Spaniel etc.
Cat breed examples: Persian Cat, Maine Coon, Siamese Cat, Ragdoll, Turkish Angora, Oriental, Shorthair, Bengal etc.
Excluding: multiple breeds in one picture, mixed breed dogs/cats, or non-recognizable dog/cat breeds.
Do not include recognizable people in your submission.
Do not include shots taken at recognizable, protected properties in your submission.
The animals shouldn't be wearing any clothing or costumes.
Crop + Perspective
It’s okay for a series of pictures in a given topic to be fairly similar but submitted pictures cannot be exact duplicates. What we expect is for each picture in a series to provide different information, so consider varying pictures as follows:
You don’t need to see the whole animal for every shot; closeups are fine.
Use a variety of camera angles, including dramatic, cinematic angles taken from different heights: Low POV, Extreme Low POV (worm's eye view), High POV, overhead (bird's eye view), etc.
Variations straight on, 45-degree angles, 90-degree angles, etc.
Shoot both vertical and horizontal aspect ratios per topic.
Shoot different types of lighting scenarios and exposures.
You can also submit pictures of the animal eating or playing with toys as long as there is no text/logos on the objects.
Don’t submit pictures that contain third-party IP anywhere in the image (e.g., brand names or logos).
