Ranked the fourth-fastest growing media company in the U.S. by Inc. Magazine, Storyblocks was born out of a desire to solve the problem of a lack of accessible, affordable stock for creatives. It’s the first unlimited download subscription-based provider of stock video and audio, claiming over 100,000 customers in the television and video production industry, including NBC and MTV, plus tens of thousands of hobbyists looking to enhance their video projects and productions. Storyblocks’ subscribers can download an unlimited number of clips from a vast and rapidly growing library of stock video, production music, motion backgrounds, sound effects, special effects, and more.
