Shutterstock debuts Offset
Microstock leader Shutterstock has publicly launched a new high-end brand called Offset. The name is intended “to celebrate creativity that’s unique and different — off set from the rest.”
“Welcome to Offset — a new, curated collection of extraordinary, engaging imagery from top artists and storytellers around the world.”

A preview version of Offset was released in March 2013 and on October 8, 2013 the site became “officially open to the public.”
“Offset is aimed at disrupting the marketplace for high-end content, and offers authentic, sophisticated imagery and a simple, transparent licensing model.”
