Hey guys.
My name is Greg Kong digital nomad and a video creator.
And today I'm going to tell you what stock footage is so stock footage is a business model that allows
you to license your videos over the Internet marketplace.
Some of you know what stock photos are and that's if you had a project or you had a business and you
needed to get a photo that you could use on your Web site or for your school project.
Now videos have used a similar business model but you're using video footage and because of that you
can shoot 10 15 second video clips.
Normally in high definition and nowadays even forte and you can license those videos so you can upload
those video clips keyword them tag them so that business or a director media company can search for
a particular video clip and if they like it they can purchase and download it.
But the terminology that we use in the stock footage world is called licensing and the beauty of licensing
is more than one customer can license your video clip and as a stock footage videographer You can also
license your video clip on more than one agency.
So in a nutshell there are a lot of benefits.
If you want to begin a career and stock footage bibliography you get to do what you love.
You can do it from anywhere but I'm chomping a little bit into the pros cons of stock footage.
But that's stock footage in a nutshell in the hope that demystifies any questions that you had.
