FCCYSF

FCCYSF stands for Free Creative Commons YouTube Stock Footage, and it's a project to provide low-budget film makers with exactly that: high quality, royalty-free public domain footage to use in their projects.

The channel currently features over 250 pieces of stock footage and has 850+ subscribers and 270,000+ total views. Click here for a reel of some featured stock footage from FCCYSF contributors.

As you can see, the project has two sides: both footage users and footage contributors can benefit. Here's how it works:

FCCYSF for Footage Users

  1. Go to the FCCSYF channel, and look through the footage through the search bar, the playlists of similar videos, and/ or the videos tab.
  2. Use a YouTube downloader (either installed or online) to download the footage.
  3. Use the footage for your video project, and give the original creator a shoutout or credit (and link to the FCCYSF channel if you're in a really good mood).
  4. We love hearing about what you do with our footage! You can email videos you've made using FCCYSF footage to fccysf@gmail.com, and they might be featured on the twitter account.

FCCYSF for Footage Contributors<

  1. You contribute high quality stock footage (spare footage dusting up on your hard drive, or files you specifically go out to shoot).
