Dissolve

What do you like best?

Footage from Dissolve is always beautifully shot. I often rely on the footage to help bridge the budget-busters of time, distance, and access. Much of the footage is available with multiple takes that help match tempo, screen direction, movement, and style.

What do you dislike?

Footage from Dissolve can be expensive. There are lots of pricing options among available clips, but before building a lightbox be sure to check the price on each individual clip. What I've found is that with a little effort, the Dissolve site has lower-priced footage options.

Recommendations to others considering the product:

As a producer, I source stock footage from a variety of sources. Many stock footage providers offer the same footage. I've found Dissolve to offer a range of content unavailable from other providers.

What problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I wish our production crews could be everywhere and shoot everything we need. It's just not possible nor is it cost-justifiable. Seldom do I have a project assignment that we can shoot start to finish and that wouldn't benefit from some additional footage.
