Firehorse Arc on Shutterstock

An exclusive collaboration that allows the stock photo site’s users access to videos from the Middle East, Africa and Asia

A longtime destination for captivating stock imagery, vector files, music and more, Shutterstock constantly seeks out new sources for content not found elsewhere. Their latest exclusive collaborator, Beirut-based production company Firehorse Arc, certainly delivers. Founded by a team of videographers, the company has produced and accrued a catalog of over 45,000 HD and SD one-of-a-kind and thought-provoking videos across the Middle East, Africa and Asia. Storytelling is at the core of each piece—yet everything from traditions and historic sites to modern-day daily life fall within their body of works. The five-year-long exclusive licensing deal bolsters Shutterstock’s 80 million+ visual and audio offerings. Most importantly, however, there’s a significance to the videos, demonstrating a beautiful past, changing world and thoughtful future—with highlights ranging from the Temple of Bel, Palmyra, Syria (filmed in 2005) to a time-lapse of a Harley Davidson motorcycle meet in Kuwait (from 2013).
