Engage your audience with royalty-free video clips

Video clips are short segments of a video or film. These clips are usually part of a longer recording, but they can also be any video that is significantly shorter than a traditional television program or film. Video clips are very popular on the internet, as they tend to align with the shortened attention spans of modern-day internet users. The ideal video clip length varies across platforms. Studies have found that the ideal length for a Facebook story video clip is 20 seconds, 15 seconds for an Instagram story, and 9 to 15 seconds for a TikTok video clip. Video clips may be utilized by news channels, films, music videos, and more.

Stock video clips are short pieces of video content that can be edited into longer videos. In this case “stock” refers to the fact that these video clips are created without a specific project in mind. They are instead licensed and made available to individuals and organizations for use in marketing materials, websites, social media, and more. These clips are usually less than 1 minute in length. They can dramatically simplify the video editing process, as they can be edited into an existing video in order to diversify the visuals or exemplify what a speaker in the video may be referring to. In this way, stock video clips help keep audiences engaged with the video content.

“Royalty-free” refers to intellectual property, such as videos, that can be used without worry of paying any royalties. Normally, if someone makes money using another person’s copyrighted intellectual property, then the user must pay royalties, or ongoing payments, to the creator or owner. With royalty-free video clips, a one-time fee is usually paid and then the user can use the clips as they see fit moving forward. Here on Shutterstock, all of our video content is royalty-free.
