Tag: Artgrid

The people behind the music platform Artlist.io have a new baby: Artgrid. With Artlist.io they have already made it their business to make life easier for content creators and created a music platform with easy license management and flatrate thinking. This has already saved me countless hours of work and at the same time enriched my videos with good music. I have written about this in more detail here. There you can also get 2 months for free if you don’t know Artlist yet and you want to test the music platform.

For their new video platform called Artgrid, they have also made it their business to provide B-roll footage without much license management. Thanks to the first very high-quality content producers in the network, there is already some video material available that cannot be compared to the classic stock footage. Of course, I have already registered and tested the platform, which is currently in the beta phase.

Proven Artlist concept also works with Artgrid

Artlist users will notice that the entire website concept was simply based on the Artlist successes. So the whole Artgrid website comes in the same outfit and uses the same search mechanisms and filter methods. With Artgrid, you can filter for filmmakers, video themes or shot types with just a few clicks. Especially interesting: The shot types. You can use them to pre-filter the existing footage by location (interior / exterior) format (4K+, raw & log), speed (realtime, slow, super slow, fast) or camera movement and framing. Very, very practical.

Artgrid has also adhered to the “shopping cart principle”. During the search, videos can be easily placed in the shopping cart one after the other. With a click on Checkout you will receive an e-mail with all download files or a click on “My Footage” leads to the selected material, which is downloaded one by one directly via the platform.

Simple license management thanks to Artgrid

Due to the larger selection and more important technical characteristics of the respective video files, Artgrid is currently available in 3 different flat rate subscriptions.

With Professional, Artgrid addresses the real video people. With Creator, especially Content Creators get the perfect package. If you only need a little B-Roll material or maybe only film a little, you might already be satisfied with the cheapest version, the Junior Plan. No matter which plan you choose, every subscription guarantees the “Universal Artgrid License” and “Unlimited Downloads” for a whole year. That’s the duration of every Artgrid plan.

The Artgrid license for video footage

Like Artlist, the Artgrid license is relatively simple and very convenient for the users. Because it covers both commercial and non-commercial uses of the footage for all platforms worldwide. Even after the end of your annual membership, you can continue to use the videos without the risk of producing extra costs. The only thing you won’t be able to get is new footage after you cancelled your subscription.

• For private and commercial use on any platform worldwide
• All packages give you access to the entire Artgrid library
• New material every day

My review of Artgrid.io so far

Just like Artlist, the platform is super easy to use and very straightforward. The flatrate principle with an “all-inclusive” license for all uses makes it much easier especially for the users, because the license management is omitted. One could really attribute to the founders that they “reinvent stock platforms”. The annual plan will certainly put off one or the other at first glance, because you pay almost 300 euros directly. In reference to the other stock providers, however, this is a very fair price.

The disadvantage of any stock platform is of course the non-exclusive content. One can assume that especially the modern and well-graded content will be used very often and will be identified very quickly as stock footage by consumers of the final videos. That’s why I would be careful about how much stock footage I use, especially for commissioned work.

But for all free works Artgrid is already a real recommendation in my opinion, which makes missing mood-shoots and B-Roll super easy to access. As already with Artlist, there is a clear recommendation from me.

More information about the license, the footage and the payment can be found in the Artgrid FAQ.

Short video with Artgrid contents by Hans Peter Schepp

A nice example of what you can find on Artgrid is this short video. It is completely cut out of video content by Content Creator Hans Peter Schepp, which you can find on Artgrid of course and which is available to you in the flatrate model after registration with all rights.

Short video with video content from Omri Ohana on Artgrid

Another good example is this clip with content from Omri Ohana. Is by far one of my favourite videographers on the Artgrid platform and has already uploaded countless clips with different moods. For one or the other project I have already used his content. You can also get his clips with a subscription to Artgrid.io. This clip is a result of his “Writer” snippets.

There are many stock video platforms out there, but I’m fully committed to Artgrid.io. Why?here I have compiled 10 good reasons for Artgrid, which in my opinion are the most important ones. Both the music platform Artlist and the video stock platform Artgrid.io I had already presented and recommended here in various articles. For example in this detailed experience report about Artgrid. I use both myself – also for the content of my blog or other social media channels and productions.

There are many reasons when the video stock material from Artgrid can be used. For example, if there are no cutaways or you want to pimp the video with an aerial shot, but you didn’t have a drone with you on your road trip through Iceland. For many eventualities Artgrid offers a lot of contemporary video material, which can be easily downloaded and used! In this blog post, we will now summarize 10 good reasons for Artgrid

Unfortunately there is no discount code available at the moment to help you with Artgrid, but there is a referral gift. With our link you get 2 months for free on top of your Artgrid.io subscription for stock videos.

Here are my 10 good reasons to use Artgrid

1. Fixed costs! No hidden fees or license costs. Everything you find on the platform, you can download and use for a fixed annual price. One year, one price, all inclusive.
2. No opaque use licenses! There is money to be made with licenses, which is why they are so opaque and often complicated. You don’t have that problem with Argrid. Once you fall in love with the material, you can use the moving image scenes for anything you want.
3. Clarity! The Artgrid platform is modern and simply designed. Countless filter options let you find the perfect material. In addition, you can favorite material and find it later again and again, when the day has come when you want to use it.
4. High quality! In the most expensive subscription, the Pro RAW/LOG for just under $600 a year, you get 4k-8k material as RAW / LOG clips and can grade them yourself if you want. This also allows you to perfectly integrate and customize the stock footage from Artgrid into your own shots. Even with the Creator package for just under 480 $ a year you get but also already 4k-8k clips
5. Simple calculation: If you need several clips for a project, Artgrid.io guarantees you a clear calculation thanks to the flat rate price model. A fixed price per year guarantees that the costs neither explode nor increase with increasing usage! This gives security and saves time.
6. The material is yours! If you don’t use Artgrid anymore or don’t need it as often as you thought, you keep the rights to your downloaded footage. So you don’t have to throw it out of your publications or channels after the subscription ends.
7. Contemporary grading! Most of Artgrid’s material suppliers are young videographers from all over the world. So even the pre-graded footage in the two starter subscriptions offers a contemporary, high-quality look that can already be used well in social media channels without any further adjustments.
8. Easy payment processing! With Paypal, Artgrid is very easy to complete. You don’t have to enter any credit card information or anything like that. The subscription fee will be debited after the trial period and then every 365 days.
9. Huge selection! Artgrid already offers a huge selection of video material on every imaginable topic. Even contemporary and political world events, such as material on the Black Lives Matter demonstrations can quickly be found on Artgrid. But the topics of food, cities, people, emotions are also covered. Due to its modern business model, Artgrid’s stock material cannot be compared at all with the quality of other platforms.
10. Simply fun! Especially because of its easy handling and the all-around subscription at a fixed price, Artgrid and the search for suitable stock video material is simply fun. If you realize that a clip is not so suitable, you simply download another one and try it out! Rarely has content research been as little of a headache as it is with Artgrid!

Artlist: The counterpart for music and sound effects

Of course, Artgrid reaches its full quality in interaction with the music platform Artlist, which works on the same principle and offers royalty-free music and sound effects in a huge library. The Artlist subscription is significantly cheaper and offers the same advantages for people who are looking for music to accompany their content. You can also find a detailed review of my Artlist Review here on the blog.

Artgrid – Reinventing Stock Footage

Finally, here is one of the many Artgrind commercials. Already here you get in my eyes a good foretaste of what the available footage from the platform can offer.

Examples of use of Artgrid

Finally, here are a few usage examples where you can see how we used Artgrid material for our Instagram account, for example. A relatively simple use, but I think the usefulness of the material becomes very clear.
