Asset resources for Contributor templates

You have painstakingly created a great template that you are confident of. You have put in the placeholder images with words like “Replace this clip with your own image” and tidied up the project’s structure for the ease of your buyers.

Now comes one of the most important step of creating your template – packaging.

Can I use logos and sample contents from other marketplace in my stock content?

Template's video preview – what can you use? Video previews are the first point of contact between your template and your potential buyers. They are the ones that will attract, entice and convince buyers that your template will be useful. Show how your template will look as an end product by filling in the placeholder images and adding music in the video preview.

But what can you use? The 2 simple rules are:

1. you should use only assets that you own or you have the license or rights to, or
2. you can use watermarked Elements from our MotionElements stock video and stock music marketplace, as long as you credit the Elements’ Contributors in your template description and “read-me” file.
