Stringr Video

Stringr is a great idea, they have a great app and website but they don’t have the best support. There was one great encounter I had with a Stringr employee over text, they were very good with communicating to me the information I needed to complete the job, sadly I don’t remember the employee’s name because I think they should get a raise. The rest of my encounters have been insanely short and not helpful. I’ll ask for more information and 98% percent of the time the answer is just “no”, “ok”, “yes. thanks”. As far as making money goes I’ve been paid,(somebody downloaded my video), about 65% of the time which is a good ratio being as there are plenty of other Stringers in my Metro Area. If you’re in the area (within 1/2 a mile on foot, 5 miles with a bike and 20 miles with a car), 80% of the time it’s worth it. Also it’s worth noting that Stringr usually takes an average of 25 to 45 minutes after the PD/FD is dispatched to put out an alert for a big fire or accident call so if you see something big or are near something big, film it and text/call Stringr and let them know about it. I Definitely download the app and get payment setup, you’ll never know when you’ll happen upon something good.

Since signing up with Stringr this year, I have completed three video location opportunities for them. And all my three of my videos have been purchased! My recent, and third payment, was surprisingly from videos that I did several months ago at an event. I have been paid by the next business day, to my PayPal account with no problems. I really like this app, and I am looking forward to more opportunities. I am wishing you much success, Stringr. Update: May 20, 2020 I am very surprised that Stringr is ignoring my request for a payment that is due me. In mid-April I uploaded my own video, from a story in my neighborhood. Stringr used my video the same day. I have dated photos of proof that I sent them today, when I requested a response. I even told them if they needed to pay me later that was okay, but I would like some communication regarding my video. If this matter is resolved to my satisfaction, I will change their rating that I just lowered from 5 to 1.

I love the basic concept of Stringr. It provides a way for me to occasionally shoot newsworthy video and get lunch money. If the shoot is conveniently located it can be great. It could and should change the way local news works. I’d like to see Stringr grow to use retired, underemployed or unemployed journalists with decent equipment and significant MMJ skills. Your assignments can call for either a simple shooter or an MMJ. The MMJ requests should have a a better reward. Stringr’s customers should be saying to their audience, “For that story we’ll send you to our partners at Stringr.” Then they can show an MMJ’s edited package. I suspect many Stringr customers would prefer that since they need not edit the video or even have to write the story. Trusted Stringer MMJ reporters should be given Id cards and microphone flags so they are recognized by police as legitimate journalists especially for their pressers. Stringr needs more name recognition to get respect and cooperation from the public to make getting those all important interviews easier. Should Stringr shooters or MMJ’s get stories on there own there should be a price structure. Some Stringr people should be more than just Nightcrawlers!

I have been working with Stringr for over 2 years. In the beginning I would wait only until something was in close distance. It would be hit or miss. Over time I got better equipment and I didn’t wait for the footage to be closer I chased it every chance I could. Making sure I had every tool to increase my chances of getting the footage. Recently I’ve tested Stringr’s Live Feature Footage and I made almost $1,000 in less than 24 hours. Don’t Believe anyone who says Stringr isn’t good. I live in the New York area so being in or near a big city helps. Facebook - Zyir Battle Thon. Instagram - battle_thon_ent

I. am. so. sick. of driving out of the way to film scenes and not get paid for it. Especially when I’ll get texts from stringr asking me to go film something only for the organization that requested it to change their mind and you spent an hour of your time filming something for free. This can be solved through basic communication between the people requesting footage and those who film. If you put out a request but then decide to send your own staff to go film a scene, then please let whoever accepted the assignment know that their footage is no longer needed. I also wish Stringr didn’t keep it a secret as to who is requesting the footage. Would be nice to see your own footage on the news. Overall I think stringr is a great way to make extra cash but they need to communicate more and if they no longer want footage LET US KNOW.
