How to Make a Video Using Stock Pictures
Video is a great tool for creating marketing campaigns. In this article, we’ll show you how to make a video that helps you promote your company’s products or services and engage with your customers using stock photos. Stock photos are already created, post-edited, and ready-to-use photos taken by professional photographers from around the world. If you need a marketing video, stock photos can really come in handy. All the images have a copyright license and can be used for free. The photos have no watermark, so you can easily add your company’s logo to them.
Movavi Business Suite has an extensive built-in library of stock photos for commercial use. You can make a slideshow or a video using only stock images, then make it unique by adding text, filters, and music. The program gives you unlimited space to let your imagination run wild.
