Purchasing Your Stock Footage
You can purchase your stock footage as an individual clip or as all the clips in your sequence.
Even though you may be logged into the Thought Equity Motion site, you may be asked to login
again. This allows Avid and the vendor to pass and receive information back and forth.
To purchase your stock footage:
1. From your Avid bin, select a single clip or sequence, then right-click and select Buy Stock
Footage.
If you have selected more than one item, a dialog box opens informing you to select one clip
or sequence.
A login window opens asking you to login.
The Avid Marketplace window opens to the Avid Thought Equity Motion site. A bin is
created within the My Bins menu with the same name as your sequence and a time stamp.
This new bin includes all the stock footage clips and related information about each clip
from your sequence.
The clips you plan to purchase display in the window with information about each clip.
The custom clip displays the start and end time of your clip you plan to purchase.
2. Select the clip you want to purchase.

If there is only a single clip, you do not need to select it.
You can only select one clip at a time.
