Hello everyone! Im a new Pond5 contributor from Indonesia. I currently have some video clips online, mostly featuring nature, mountains, forests, waterfalls, hiking, and cycling. Most of my footage is vertical, with only a small portion being horizontal/landscape. Im still a beginner and learning how everything works, so I would really appreciate any advice, tips, or feedback from experienced contributors here. Thanks! 🙏🙇

My suggestion would be to do the opposite, Film more horizontal, less vertical. I'm guessing this is all shot with your phone?
Also a tripod for locked down shots.
And upload a lot more.

Thank you both for the advice and encouragement 🙏 Yes, Im mostly shooting with my phone at the moment. Im currently uploading the remaining vertical footage I have in my gallery, while I will try to focus more on horizontal footage and use a tripod for more stable shots going forward. I really appreciate the tips. I'll keep uploading and learning, thank you 🙏
