Free Stock Videos For Web Design

People watch more than a billion hours of video on YouTube every day. Over on TikTok, more than a billion individual videos are viewed daily.

Even Instagram — the world's most popular photo-sharing app — has announced that it's shifting its focus to video… probably because Instagram videos get twice the engagement of Instagram photos.

Overall, the average person spends about 100 minutes a day watching online videos.

The bottom line? Internet-using humans are obsessed with videos.

Which means that video should be a vital part of your marketing or social campaign. (Wait, should this have been a video instead of an article? Excuse us while we have a quick spiral.)

But you don't need a professional videographer to create professional-grade video content for your marketing or social media accounts. You just need a good list of free stock video resources.

Which is exactly what we've got for you here. Read on for a list of websites for stock footage you can repurpose, remix or reimagine, without any stress about copyright infringement.

(Looking for great stock photo options, too? We've got you covered there, too, with our list of free stock photo websites.)

So grab the clips you need, and then add text, graphics or music to create highly watchable videos for your next marketing campaign… all for a sweet, sweet budget of zero dollars.

Let's get to movie-making, shall we?

All content on the site can be used for free, whether for commercial or non-commercial purposes, for print or digital. (Though certain downloads may specifically clarify "what is not allowed".) You don't need to get permission or give credit to the artist to use or modify the content, (but it's still best practice to always credit the owner).

Videvo

  • Videvo Attribution License allows you to use a clip for free, but you have to credit the original author.
  • Clips with a Creative Commons 3.0 can also be used for free, with credit, and may be remixed or adapted.
  • Public Domain licenses mean that they're yours to do with as you wish!

Life of Vids is a collection of free stock videos, clips, and loops from Leeroy, an advertising agency in Montreal, Canada. There are no copyright restrictions, but redistribution on other sites is limited to 10 videos.

Started by entrepreneurs and filmmakers who needed good-looking video for their products, Coverr is intended to fill that same need for other up-and-coming brands: a little gift to the world, if you will.

No sign-up needed, no attribution required, just instant downloads of free video footage. Use these sweet clips in commercial video projects or personal ones, and copy or modify them to your heart's content.

Splitshire

Splitshire was created by web designer Daniel Nanescu, who wanted to offer his photos and videos free for personal and commercial use. The fact that these photos and videos were all created by one person makes them more unique than content from other stock sites.

The videos are primarily drone footage of beautiful outdoor scenes, and you can download them by clicking on the title below each video. You're free to use them across all your social media channels, but you can't sell them or use them in projects with inappropriate content such as violence, racism, or discrimination.

Clipstill

Each month, Clipstill makes a handful of its web-quality "cinemagraphs" available for free download, so it's worth checking out and stocking up for future use. You never know when you're going to need some footage of a hot air balloon down the road, right?

If you don't want to wait around for just the right footage to come along (and have a few bucks to spare), you can also sign up for unlimited downloads for a one-time $49 fee.

Dareful

Dareful download free stock video footage in 4K

Okay, it's not a collection of thousands or millions of clips, but maybe there's something among the hundreds of open-source 4K royalty-free stock video clips here that will tickle your fancy.

Formerly known as Stock Footage for Free, Dareful provides stock footage that's licensed under Creative Commons 4.0, which means you're free to share and adapt as long as you give appropriate credit and indicate if any changes were made.

It's all shot by a videographer named Joel Holland. Why's he giving it all away? We may never know, but we can watch this time-lapse footage of ominous clouds as we ponder.

Vidsplay

There are new videos added every few weeks to the Vidsplay collection, which makes it a great resource for keeping your social video content fresh. And since it's been around since 2010, there's a huge backlog of older content to pursue, too.

You can download and use any video without paying royalties, although you do need to provide attribution.
