Stock video can be an incredible resource for creating digital signage content. There is a lot of it, it is easy to access and easy to use – prices vary. A quick search on the web for stock video websites produces many results but one we use regularly is iStockPhoto<\/a> which offers both stills and video.<\/p>\n

So if for example the requirement is to make a menu board for a restaurant there is a huge selection of relevant video clips available, this is quickly apparent with a search of a couple of sites using the word ‘food’: Artbeats<\/a> gave 1,601 clips as a result and iStockPhoto<\/a> gave 11,401. A purchased clip can be used to create a video background with either a fixed or changing menu display in the foreground – this is an easy exercise in video editing software.<\/p>\n

There are certainly many topics covered by stock video, for example searches for video on topics such as dinosaurs or 17th century gave a respectable number of results for each.<\/p>\n

One final point – always check the usage license. Even royalty free video is likely to have usage conditions.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
