Aerial shot over La Jolla Farms La Jolla Shores Black’s Beach and Scripps Pier on a beautiful San Diego afternoon Black’s Beach
ForProduction companies and editors

The aerial you need, without the shoot day.

Masters, not previews. Video downloads are the full-resolution master where one exists: commonly 5.1K ProRes from the Mavic 3 Cine, otherwise 4K. Every clip is San Diego County, filed under the exact place it was shot.

01The files

Shot to be graded, delivered at full size.

Aerials are flown on a Mavic 3 Cine and ground work is shot on cinema bodies. Every clip page lists what it was shot on and at what time of day.

  • Full-resolution masters, commonly 5.1K ProRes, otherwise 4K. Photographs at full sensor resolution.
  • Preview anything before you license it. Every clip has its own page.
  • Both orientations, shot on purpose: 1,860 clips are vertical, not cropped down.
From Encinitas, Del Mar Dog Beach and Del Mar. Select one to preview it.
02Licensing

Licenses in plain English.

Three levels, the same for clips and photographs. Buy a license one at a time, or use the credits a membership brings. Credits climb the ladder at the same ratio the money does.

Single Use

$69or 1 credit

One finished video, on any channel, for as long as that video exists. A second video needs a second license.

Download it up to 2 times

Extended

$279or 4 credits

Unlimited finished videos for one brand for two years, including paid advertising and permanent website use. Videos made inside those two years keep their license for good.

Download it up to 5 times

Unlimited

$599or 9 credits

Unlimited finished videos with no time limit, including broadcast, out-of-home, billboards and national print.

Download it as often as you need

Every license stays yours, even after a membership ends, and each one comes with a certificate for a client, a publisher or a platform that asks.

03Speed

A shoot day needs a date. This needs a search.

It also needs a crew, a drone flown legally and weather that cooperates. These clips are already shot: search, preview, license, and the master is downloading.

  • Search by place or by subject. Type La Jolla, Sunset Cliffs or surfers and get that place, not the whole county.
  • Up to 30 downloads a day on every plan, which keeps the library fast for everyone.
  • Still missing the shot? Custom shoots are the other half of the business. If a neighborhood or angle is missing, ask.
From Hotel Del Coronado, Balboa Park and Marina.
04Client work

Send a client the clips. See what they pick.

Built for work done on someone else's behalf, from the first selects to the finished cut.

Review links

One link to a page of options, with their choices sent back to you.

Into your NLE

Cut a rough edit in the browser if it helps, then take the underlying clips into Premiere or Resolve under your normal license.

Team accounts

A membership is for one company and the people working in it. If several people need their own logins and credit balances, ask about a team account.

HowIt works

Find it, license it, cut with it.

  1. Find it by place

    Search a neighborhood, a landmark or a subject. Every file is filed under the exact place it was shot, and you can preview anything before you license it.

  2. License it

    Use the credits a membership brings, or buy one license at a time from $69. Single Use takes 1 credit. Every license stays yours, even after a membership ends.

  3. Download it

    At full resolution, with a certificate for the license. Everything you own waits in Downloads for whenever the project comes back.

PlansMembership

From $99 a month. The longer it runs, the less it costs.

FAQQuestions

What people ask first.

Every question
What resolution and codec do I get?

Video downloads are the full-resolution master where one exists: commonly 5.1K ProRes from the Mavic 3 Cine, otherwise 4K. Photographs download at full sensor resolution.

Can I use a clip in a client’s project?

Yes. That is what most members do. The license is held by whoever downloads it, so license under the account that will be named if the use is ever questioned.

Can I resell or sublicense the footage?

No. Redistribution as stock, resale, or inclusion in a template or product for onward licensing is the one thing the license excludes.

What if my client wants exclusivity?

Ask. Individual clips can be pulled from the library for a period at a price. It is not part of the standard license, but it is possible.

Can I get something that isn’t in the library?

Yes. Custom shoots are the other half of the business. If a neighborhood or angle is missing, ask. Often it exists and simply hasn’t been published yet.

Can more than one person use an account?

A membership is for one company and the people working in it. If several people need their own logins and their own credit balances, ask about a team account.

On a deadline?

Search the library now, or email about a custom shoot, exclusivity or an invoice.
