Stock Photo DigRev

Have you ever wondered what it looks like behind the scenes of the cliche stock photos plastered across the web? If so, DigitalRev’s latest video should give you some humorous insight.

In the three minute video, the DigitalRev team shows what the situations are that lead to the almost laughable stock photos where computer peripherals aren’t even connected or lens flares take over any but of usable image.

As tends to be the case with much of DigitalRev’s humor, it’s a bit dry and diluted, but it’s well worth the watch if not for a couple of laughs.

There is a little bit of NSFW language, so consider yourself warned.
