Shutterstock announced the launch of the 10th anniversary edition of its annual ​Creative Trends Report​, highlighting both global and local trends that will inspire creative expression and ingenuity in 2021.“After the year that was, we were encouraged by the positivity, originality, and resilience displayed by the Shutterstock community, which was reflected in their searches,” said Flo Lau, Creative Director at Shutterstock. “This year’s trends centered around individuality, imperfection, authenticity, and escapism — despite the obstacles we were forced to navigate, and the uncertainty we faced, there was no shortage of creativity and innovation. These trends, gleaned from billions of keyword searches by our users, lay the foundation for the content we can expect to see across creative outputs, B2B and B2C marketing in the year ahead.”The 10 2021 Creative Trends fall into five categories: Graphic, Photography, Footage, Music, and the Trend to Watch.
