Founded on April 1st 2011 BottledVideo.com (a spin off of the family video production business) was launched to the public as resource of free stock video footage. After 20 years in the stock footage business I woke up one day and realized the stock footage industry has been very good to me and now it is time to give something back. Everything on this site is provided from our privately held archives is being made free for you to use in your video projects. We encourage you use the videos on this site in your own masterpieces. There are no gimmicks. There are no hidden fees. And there are no surprises. Footage on BottledVideo.com is both HD and SD meaning some is one and some is the other. All footage is delivered in its native resolution. If the footage was shot in SD it can only be delivered in SD.
So please use our footage and tell your friends. Links to our site are always welcome as are Blog postings, Twitter, Facebook, You Tube comments, etc. Help the spread the word about free video like I wish someone was able to do back when I was in school.
Before I forget, on your way to the top, if you post a video with our footage anywhere please let us know so we can help get the word out for you.

When it comes to “Getting the Shot” no one goes farther then David because coming back without the shot is not an option. Really, someone just figured out that bail is cheaper then giving the client their money back and no shot.
With 20 years experience under his belt as a videographer and stock footage supplier David takes great joy in telling anyone who will listen what pride he has in knowing that his video was in more Oscar winning films, Grammy winning music videos, and Emmy winning television programs than he can count. He has personally won 4 Telly Awards. Yet despite these accomplishments, David’s greatest pride is having his footage appear in #$&*! My Dad Says with William Shatner. In his mind David’s degree of separation from Capt. Kirk is now 1.
