Royalty Free Stock Videos

Film-production companies often need high-definition or 2K/4k-format stock footage for whatever project they’re creating. If you can buy stock footage of the Taj Mahal, you can avoid the expense of sending a film crew to India. This is true of any production company, whether it’s creating advertisements, documentaries, travelogues, or any other sort of film.

It’s also true that cinematographers are always working on all sorts of projects throughout the world. In the process of filming all the scenes needed for a particular project, cinematographers inevitably capture more high-definition footage than they'll ever need. AlwaysHD now makes it possible for cinematographers to generate a new revenue stream from all the unused footage they’ve created.

In the past, professional cinematographers received income only when working in the field. AlwaysHD now provides a way for those cinematographers to make money from all the surplus high-definition footage they have in stock. To make this transaction as simple as possible, AlwaysHD makes HD Professional Stock Videos available to production companies as royalty-free stock footage. Once a production company buys the footage it needs, it can then use it anywhere at anytime. The cinematographers who supplied the footage receive 50 percent of the net revenue generated by the sale of their clips, paid monthly.

Increasingly, production companies want only high-definition footage. Standard-definition footage simply isn’t good enough. AlwaysHD sells only high-definition stock footage, and it sells and delivers that footage by means of the internet, thereby speeding the process of sale and transmittal. By meeting the needs of production companies, AlwaysHD also helps professional cinematographers increase their income through the sale of their unneeded stock footage.
