Stock videos and stock animations can be used creatively in every commercial or personal video production / audiovisual project. Stock videos can be easily spliced and added to the main content seamlessly with most good video-editing/-compositing softwares in the market such as Adobe Premiere Pro, Final Cut Pro, iMovie, DaVinci Resolve.

Stock animations are pre-animated video clips that come with a license that gives the buyer permission to use them. These animations can be graphic animations, animated backgrounds and video loops.

As animation projects are usually tedious and effortful to create, stock animations help creators save time and hassle with pre-made video clips that can be added into the timeline easily.

Model and property releases are signed documents which inform that the people or property (trademarks, brands, works of art or buildings) featured in the stock image or video clip are safe to use. To use a stock image / stock video in your commercial project all you need to know is that a release has been signed - the actual copy of the release is not required.

Stock content with signed model release and property release are marked accordingly on the product page description.

Royalty-free describes intellectual property that can be used without having to pay royalties. Once a one-time fee is paid for a royalty-free license, the buyer is free to use it without having to pay recurring fees to the intellectual property owner.

While a royalty-free license gives a person the right to use it, the intellectual property still belongs to the original owner. Anyone who buys a royalty-free license is entitled to use the same content. In other words, royalty-free content is not exclusive.

However, there are many perks of using royalty-free content. A buyer does not need to attribute the owner and each content can be used as many times as desired in as many projects as possible.
