For Filmmakers & Photographers

Contribute to the Archive

Stock Cineteca is becoming a creator-first alternative to the legacy stock platforms — more curated, more cinematic, more locally authentic, and more rewarding for the people behind the lens.

Creator-first economics

Contributors keep the majority of every license — a 50% baseline royalty, not the single-digit rates legacy platforms pay.

Curated, not crowded

Every submission is reviewed. Your work sits in a gallery beside work that holds the same standard — never buried under ten million lookalikes.

Your library, your tools

The same studio the archive runs on: bulk drag-and-drop uploads, AI-drafted metadata, one-click publishing, and replacement without broken links.

Hyperlocal first

We're building the definitive NYC & NJ archive first — borough by borough, neighborhood by neighborhood — then opening to contributors worldwide.

The contributor program opens soon

We're onboarding a founding group of NYC-area filmmakers and photographers first. Tell us about your work and we'll reach out as spots open.
