Where can I find stock photos for use in video projects?

Oct 31, 2005 at 2:52 am in digital video news, post visuals by 22-02-1989 · 9 Comments »

When moving footage is not available, don’t forget about still photos! You can animate still photos with motion and scale, crop them, apply filters (like sepia, B & W, color tint) and sometimes stills can fill empty spots in your timeline as well or even better than a video clip. Also, many stock photos are automatically HD res!
