The Shutterstock provider of stock photography, artwork and videos is encouraging collaborators and clients to create and publish pictures that provide an accurate representation of any global health problem that encompasses every demographic around the world, as today’s coronavirus does. With this in mind, Jordan Dyck, photographer, producer, writer & senior creative content manager at Shutterstock, shared a series of tips from the Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA) that comply with the recommendations of global health authorities. These in turn have led to the creation of scenes that illustrate social distancing in public places, how people should wash their hands, how they should cover their faces when coughing and sneezing, and when they should seek medical care, while picturing the variety of demographics most vulnerable to the disease. “Our mission is to ensure that the imagery used to portray outbreaks and crisis is representative of factual events. We do this by educating and encouraging our contributors to create content with accurate depictions of all demographics and events around the globe” Dyck told PRODU. As for illustrations and cartoons, he noted that they are useful content for publications read by children and teenagers who need to learn about this topic without being scared. They are also an excellent way to communicate data and statistics in a fully informative yet calming way.”At Shutterstock, we have an incredible community of over 1 million photographers, illustrators, artists and videographers around the world who work tirelessly to create content for our customers. On the blog, our goal is to provide educational information to help people create and share content that’s both accurate and representative of the real world” Dyck said. He added that the most important thing when taking photos of a global health problem is to bear in mind that it is, in fact, a global health problem, and that “the images must be representative of the global population, not a specific ethnicity or demographic. The more variety we show in our images, the more we contribute to a global understanding of this disease.”
