What is Mixkit?
Mixkit is Envato's free tier turned into its own destination, and it punches far above 'free': curated stock video in real production quality, a music library organized by genre and mood, punchy sound effects, and — the feature nothing else free offers at this level — ready-made video templates for Premiere Pro, DaVinci Resolve, After Effects and Premiere Rush.
Those templates are the reason editors bookmark Mixkit: animated title sequences, lower thirds, subscribe buttons, logo stings and transitions that drop into your timeline and take your channel's polish up a level overnight. No account needed for most downloads, and the license explicitly covers commercial projects including monetized YouTube.
The library is smaller than Pixabay's — curation over volume — but nearly everything in it is good. Video categories skew toward backgrounds, tech, nature and lifestyle, exactly what B-roll demands. If you edit in Resolve or Premiere and haven't mined the template section, you are leaving free production value on the table.

Free plan & limits
Free under the Mixkit License — commercial use including monetized videos is allowed, attribution not required. Reselling the raw assets is not. Some premium Envato items appear as teasers; the Mixkit library itself costs nothing.
Who is it best for?
Video editors who want free motion-graphics templates and quality B-roll/music in one place — especially Premiere Pro and Resolve users.
Frequently asked questions
Do I need an account to download?
Most downloads need no signup at all — pick, preview, download. It's one of the few stock sites with zero friction.
Can I use Mixkit templates in client work and monetized videos?
Yes — the license covers commercial projects. You can't resell the templates themselves, but videos you make with them are yours.
How is this free — what's the catch?
No catch: Mixkit is Envato's free showcase. It funnels happy users toward their paid marketplaces (Envato Elements, Storyblocks-style subscriptions) — the free library is genuinely free.
