Artbeats Dimensions: footage for anytime


Artbeats has a ton of stock footage.  Much of it is in beautiul HD resolution.  But you might find that you don't have a lot of call for some of it; "British Coastline footage" could be too specific to a location. 

In their new offering, Abstract Dimensions, there are ten separate movies that you can use much more generically.  You can use these WITH your other Artbeats footage, or by itself.  Each movie provides for clean background footage or you can crop it and/or composite it with other elements to create your own graphic element.

You can check out the elements and even download sample images and movies from the Artbeats website (here).
