Semi OT: Pond5 & AE Files

Hello All:

Has anyone found any reputable sites selling veg files similar to what you see on Pond5 with After Effects?

http://www.pond5.com/after-effects/1/*.html

Any of the Vegas Pro "Power Users" considered selling templates in such a venue? I, for one, would consider buying such templates. Once I see how something is done, I can modify and grow from there, but some users (like me) have a tough time starting from scratch.

Regards,

Kimberly

Have you ever seen these?

Digital Juice - Ready2Go Pro - Vegas Project Files:

I haven't used these templates (created specifically for Vegas users) but I have used their After Effects templates and own more of their products than I care to admit, and I can vouch for their first-rate quality.

And, don't let the seemingly high price scare you off. Sign up for the Digital Juice newsletter and check in to the site often as they ALWAYS have amazing deals. For instance, over the past few weeks, I picked up nearly $2500 worth of product for under $350.

While pond5.com does have better pricing than most sites (and no one can match their stock photo pricing), their average AE project file cost is $30 (with a range of something like $10 to $80).

While, even at their current selling prices, the four Digital Juice Vegas project collections ring in at less than $2 per Vegas project file.

Anyway,as you can tell, I'm a big fan. :-) I hope that helps.

That's it exactly! For my purposes I would use just a layer or two of some of those project templates, but that's enough to accomplish what I'm seeking.

I'd looked at Digital Juice a few years ago but forgotten about it and I'd forgotten to save the bookmark. Many thanks.
