How to Order

Ordering footage for your project is simple. Just follow the steps below to: 1. Add Clips to the Cart, 2. Set Clip Pricing, and 3. Order Master Footage.

1. Add Clips to Your Cart
To order master footage, add the desired clips from either your Search Results or your Clipbin to your Cart.

Option 1: Click the ‘Add to Cart’ icon Cart Icon
Option 2: Drag-and-drop the clip from the Search Results to the Cart Panel.

Please note you cannot drag clips from the Clipbin Panel to the Cart. Drag-and–drop only works when viewing the full Clipbin or Search Results page. Dragging a clip from the Clipbin or Cart panel will delete the clip.

2. Set Clip Pricing
Pricing can be set using the Pricing Calculator available from the Popup Movie or in the Cart. You access the Popup Movie by clicking the’ Info’ icon Info Icon on the thumbnail image from the Search Results or Clipbin pages. Once you have set terms for one Rights Managed clip or one Royalty Free clip, the terms will update for all other clips of the same category (Rights Managed or Royalty Free). These rates will appear for all clips in both the Popup Movie and your Cart. As Advertising rates vary significantly by geography, you will be prompted to place a Rate Quote or contact a Sales Representative to receive a rate quote for Advertising. For more information about pricing view the Pricing Guide.
