That’s the point of having stock footage, so that you don’t have to go shoot more current footage, or search around for some footage you might have shot last week that would work. You just cue up what you need that is already in the catalog and you’re done.

I mean, a man with a shopping cart is a man with a shopping cart. Nobody cares if the man with the shopping cart is shopping for a hurricane or shopping for a pandemic, of if he was shopping 10 years ago or last week. One photo is just as good as another to convey the idea “man with a shopping cart” to the viewer.

Unless “man with shopping cart” is intentionally deceitful because it doesn’t show social distancing and lack of face masks.

I mean, hard is it to find footage with tags “man shopping cart COVID April 2020”?
