Motion Master Templates vs Storyblocks

Motion Master Templates offers 114 downloadable templates for Final Cut Pro on macOS, covering motion graphics, titles, transitions, effects, and generators. Categories include 3D, backgrounds, lower thirds, masks, photo and video, text, transitions, and logo reveals. Every listed template is free to download and includes a tutorial video. Templates can be opened in Apple Motion for additional parameters and customization, with editable source files available. Downloads are DMG files installed in the appropriate Final Cut Pro template location. A template made in a newer Final Cut Pro version may show a missing-generator warning in an older version. The license permits personal and commercial projects, client work, and published content. Users may not redistribute, resell, claim as their own, or offer the files elsewhere. The site says it has no ads, tracking, or accounts. Optional donations are non-refundable and handled through Stripe. No plugin is required, and downloads are unlimited.

Storyblocks provides subscription access to stock media and tools for video production. Its library contains over 10 million human-made assets, including footage, templates, music, sound effects, photos, vectors, and illustrations. The AI Toolkit offers video editing, video generation, and image generation; voiceover is available on some plans, and features use monthly credits. An Adobe Creative Cloud plugin brings the library into Premiere Pro and After Effects for searching, previewing, and downloading assets. Maker is an online video editor connected to the library, and Maker for Teams adds brand kits, collaboration tools, and custom templates. Templates are available for Adobe Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, and Apple Motion. A free account includes watermarked previews, folders, and Maker video creation, but there is no free trial membership. Essentials costs $21 a month billed annually; Unlimited All Access costs $30 a month billed annually; Small Business costs $40 a month billed annually. Small Business covers one employee at an organization with fewer than 50 employees and excludes agencies, production companies, and broadcast companies. Business pricing is available by quote.
