1. 📸 Photos and Video Clips First Applications

Say goodbye to lengthy written applications! We're putting your visual content front and center:

• Showcase your personality and aesthetic instantly with a photo/video clip portfolio
• Now Optional: written application to highlight why you're the perfect fit
• Action Required: If your portfolio was created before April, update it now with fresh photos and video clips!

2. 🗺️ Personal Touch in Location Descriptions

Destinations love authentic, personal content. To help with that, we have updated the guidance for individual adventure stops to align with the feedback we are getting from destinations. Here's what they're looking for:

• Share your unique experiences and personal anecdotes
• Move beyond tour guide type descriptions
• Focus on what made each location special to you

3. 🎥 Short-Form Video Reminder

As short-form video continues to be more important to creators and communities, just a quick reminder that collaborations do require a minimum of 8 video clips as part of the content you deliver.

Embrace the power of video to make your content pop:

• Include a minimum of 8 video clips in your collaborations
• Aim for 5-10 second clips that capture the essence of your experience
• Utilize these video clips to provide a richer, more dynamic view of the locations you visit

Remember, Shrpa isn't just about finding any collaboration – it's about finding the perfect fit for YOU! These updates are designed to help you express your individuality and create content that truly resonates with both destinations and fellow travelers.

Happy creating!
