#Envato Elements vs Storyblocks: Which One for Video and Multimedia Projects?
Meta Description: We compare the differences between Envato Elements and Storyblocks for video editors, YouTube creators and multimedia projects.
For those who produce video production and multimedia content, choosing the right stock media platform directly affects the quality and production speed of the projects. Envato Elements and Storyblocks are the two most powerful platforms in this field. Although both come with the promise of unlimited downloads, their content types and areas of strength are different.
Content Types and Scope
Envato Elements offers a broader range with over 17 million assets: video templates, stock videos, music, sound effects, graphic templates, web themes, presentation templates, photos and 3D models. Storyblocks, on the other hand, offers an in-depth library, especially regarding stock video, sound effects and music. Categories such as graphics and web templates are not available in Storyblocks.
Video Content Quality
Storyblocks stands out especially with its 4K stock video library. It has a rich archive of aerial shots, slow-motion scenes and cinematic images. Ideal for YouTube and professional video production. Envato Elements also has quality stock video, but its real strength is in its video templates โ there are thousands of professional templates available for After Effects, Premiere Pro, and DaVinci Resolve.
Sound and Music Library
Both platforms offer rich music and sound effect libraries. Storyblocks' music catalog is especially strong when it comes to background music and jingles. Thanks to Envato Elements' AudioJungle integration, access to a wider range of music is possible.
Price-Performance
Envato Elements: $16.50/month (all categories unlimited). Storyblocks: $30/month (video, audio and images only). In terms of price, Envato Elements offers a better value by including content other than multimedia.
Result
If you're primarily into video production and need high-quality stock footage, Storyblocks is a better option. If you have a versatile use such as video templates, graphics, web theme and presentation, Envato Elements will add more value to you.
