Is this a great deal or what?
If you need video for your project you now have access to a huge library of stock video clips for the incredibly low price of just $49 a month.
Video Blocks is the new membership site from Footage Firm, one of the largest suppliers of royalty free video images in the marketplace. I’ve been using and recommending Footage Firm for a long time. Their video clips are fantastic and affordable. Now, they have put together an even better deal for the customer: unlimited downloads of over 30,000 clips for the incredibly low price of $49 a month.
Here is a Video Tour of their site.
The standard price for royalty free stock video footage is around $25-$50 per clip! At Video Blocks, you can get all the clips you want for the standard price of one or two clips! They are offering a 7-day free trial so you can try it yourself for no obligation.
In the three videos on this page, two are ones I edited from Video Blocks footage and you can see dozens of examples of the caliber of shots you can get. The first is on the subject of battling depression naturally, the second is a motivational video. Virtually all of the shots came from Footage Firm and Video Blocks. As you’ll see on both videos, they offer extremely high quality, professionally shot video of everything from exploding volcanoes to gorgeous beach sunsets.
The third video is a tour of their site.
Stock footage is of course the easiest and least expensive way to make a professional quality video. Compared to shooting it yourself, stock footage is a huge time and money saver. Honestly, I could not run the business I do without relying heavily on stock footage. As a one-man-band video producer, I have neither the time nor the budget to run all over the world taking video footage.
Whether you are a pro or just dabble in video as a hobby, you can use stock footage to make the job easier, quicker and less expensive.
When I spoke with my contact at Footage Firm, Joel Holland, he said one of the biggest reasons why they decided to create Video Blocks was so the “small guy” could get in on the action. Traditionally, Footage Firm’s main clients have been TV networks and other huge budget video operations that can afford to plunk down a large fee for a few shots. Hobbyists, of course, couldn’t. But now they can! At $49 a month for all the clips you need, budget will never stand in your way again.

Great review Leraine,
I signed up for the 7 days and am continuing it for a month at $50 – A steal!!!! Probably cancel at the end of month or by the time I get sick of downloading clip after clip after clip. I’m going for the HD stuff only and it’s great. As an editor/ AE dude I love the compositing clips. As a DUDE I love the explosions, smoke and fire. But as a Canadian dude I’m disappointed there were no Canadian clips at all. Overall, it’s a great service for any producer.

Hi Dude!
Glad you liked Footage Firm. Yes, they have such bargains it is unbelievable. Thanks to Footage Firm, I have been able to economically build my stock footage library to a huge level. That is positively invaluable to me as a freelance video producer. I use their royalty free stock footage ALL the time. They have a huge international section. Was there no Canadian? I did not notice that myself but then again I was not really looking. They had quite a bit of video clips from all over the world though. Thanks for reading Video Production Tips!
