Do you regularly work on video projects and find yourself spending a lot of time searching for various assets online? Motion Array has released a new extension for Adobe to help you cut down on the time you spend jumping between your project and your internet browser.
If there is one thing I have learned so far, when it comes to video editing, time can quickly disappear when searching for that perfect song or music clip to go with the project or always browsing to find that one special effect that makes the video look exactly how you intended. And, this is excluding the time you waste editing a clip to a song, only to realize it wasn't a royalty free song after all (this is coming from personal experience!) and a new one needs to be found again.
To reduce the amount of time you spend looking for assets online and instead have more time to focus on the actual editing process, Motion Array have just released a new extension for Adobe users. Working exclusively within Adobe, such as Premiere Pro and After Effects, without leaving the software, you can browse the entire Motion Array library containing various templates, stock video footage, royalty free music, and more. You can then preview and add your chosen assets to your video projects, without risking distractions that may otherwise interrupt your workflow.
The extension itself can be downloaded and used for free, but to gain access to the entire asset library, you have to register or log in as a paid Motion Array account user, however, you can still gain access to free downloads using the free membership. To install this extension, all you have to od is simply download, install, and log into your Motion Array account by choosing "Windows", followed by "Extensions" in the drop down menu, and tick "Motion Array". Initially, the extension will be free floating; you can grab and drag it within the software to where it suits your workflow.
If you want to try out this extension, head over to Motion Array Adobe Extension link for a direct download. If you want to review pricing for an unlimited library access, you can compare the pricing packages here.

buyer beware - My son signed up with Motion Array under the premise that he was paying a monthly $20.84 and could cancel anytime. Underneath the monthly price was the small print that said "$249.99 paid annually." This gave us both the impression that there were 2 options for payment, monthly or annually. Nothing on the advertisement said it was a "paid annually option only." Needless to say, the company charged my son $249.99 when we thought it was costing $20.84/month. After emailing this company, because they do not list a phone number at all on their website to communicate with their clients, it was clearly stated that they would not be issuing a refund for the misleading pricing advertisement. Any company that will not let you speak directly to them should be the first red flag.
