Stock footages provide high-quality videos that have been already made to be suitable for a vast number of themes. However, if some careful considerations are not taken into account, it might ruin the great work done. There are some dos and don’ts to be taken into account to make stock footages work wonders for you. Following is the list:
DOS –
1. Explore the chosen library
Many resources for stock footages are pain and lack of planning may exceed the budget of the whole project. So, explore what kind of footages are available and find the clips that you might need. If you need help, there are stock forums where experienced users will help you. In addition, determine which footages will be useful in transition between scenes. Conduct a cursory search to determine what is available and what fits.
2. Do contextual test
The way stock shots are matched is important in a great video. It provides contextual meaning. If you want the stock shot to just fit in or you need a contrast to introducing another scene, there needs to be clarity. To gain that clarity, perform the contextual test. A watermarked preview will enable to determine if everything fits well.
DONTS –
1. Don’t select the shot that looks like a poster of a film
Unless you want to give that effect, don’t choose any shot that would look like a poster of a movie. There is a space for glamorous shots, but don’t use it to give an unnecessary effect. Stay relevant as much as possible.
2. Don’t select a shot that looks great in isolation
Choose a shot that is relevant to the artistic intent. If the shot looks great, use it in the film. But don’t use it because it is great. When it will blend in the film, it may give an opposite effect. Use a watermarked version to determine if the shot looks great in the context of the project.
