01Licensed for ads

Paid ads need the right license.

Three levels, the same for clips and photographs. Paid advertising and permanent website use start at Extended; broadcast and out-of-home are what Unlimited is for.

Extended

$279a clip, or 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.

Unlimited

$599a clip, or 9 credits

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

Releases

The library is editorial-and-commercial-safe for the way it is normally used: wide neighborhood and landscape work with no identifiable talent. Anything requiring a release is marked on the clip page.

Client wants exclusivity? Ask. Individual clips can be pulled from the library for a period at a price.

02Hotels and resorts

The property, and everything around it.

Hotels, resorts, golf courses and the coastline in front of them, from the air and on the ground. Hotel del Coronado alone has 518 clips and photographs.

From Black’s Beach, Hotel Del Coronado and Coronado Bridge. Select one to preview it.
03Restaurants and retail

The streets your customers already walk.

Shops, restaurants and the neighborhoods around them, filed under the exact place they were shot. Search the neighborhood your business is in and get that neighborhood, not the whole county.

  • Search by place or by subject. Type a neighborhood, or restaurants, or surfers.
  • Preview anything before you license it, and save what you like to a list.
  • Send a client the clips and see what they pick, with one review link.
From Downtown Encinitas, Little Italy and Barrio Logan.
04Social and reels

Nine by sixteen, ready to post.

1,860 vertical clips, shot for the format rather than cropped down. Or type a place into Spearhead Studio and it cuts vertical reels from real footage of that place, with three versions to choose from.

Powered by Spearhead Scout, which checks every clip and writes the caption

Spearhead Studio is included with 1 Year and 1 Year Pro.

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.

A single license is $69 a clip, no membership needed. With a membership, credits land every month and the rate falls as the term grows.

FAQQuestions

What people ask first.

Every question
Can I use it in paid advertising?

Paid advertising and permanent website use start at the Extended step ($279 a clip). Single Use covers one finished piece (a listing video, a post, a page), and broadcast, billboards and national print are what Unlimited is for.

Do I need a release for the people or buildings?

The library is editorial-and-commercial-safe for the way it is normally used: wide neighborhood and landscape work with no identifiable talent. Anything requiring a release is marked on the clip page.

Does the license expire?

Single Use never expires for the piece it was used in. Extended covers unlimited pieces for two years, and anything made inside those two years keeps its license for good; new work after that needs a new license. Unlimited has no end date at all.

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.

Do you invoice?

For packs and annual memberships, yes. Ask and an invoice will come the same day.

Planning a campaign?

Browse the library, or ask about a custom shoot or exclusivity for a clip.
