Learn how to search, preview, and download Adobe Stock assets directly from the Adobe Stock panel in Adobe After Effects.
About the Adobe Stock panel
The Adobe Stock panel brings Adobe Stock search directly into After Effects. Before this panel, finding Stock content meant either searching through the Libraries panel or manually downloading assets from your browser.
With the panel open, you can search the full Adobe Stock library, preview images, videos, audio, and templates, and bring them into your project without leaving the app.
Search and preview Adobe Stock assets
Enter a keyword in the search field, then use the media tabs and filter controls to narrow your Stock results before previewing or downloading an asset.
Select a thumbnail to preview the asset.
Use the media tabs and refinement controls to narrow your Adobe Stock search results. Choose a media type such as images, videos, audio, templates, or 3D assets, then apply filters like orientation, style, or color. Preview the asset to make sure it meets your needs before licensing or downloading.
Media type tabs
- Images: Photos, vectors, and illustrations.
- Videos: Stock footage, backgrounds, and B-roll.
- Templates: Titles, lower thirds, transitions, and overlays.
- Audio: Music tracks and sound effects.
Filter and refinement options
- Generative AI: Include or exclude AI-generated content.
- Resolution: Choose quality tiers such as 4K or HD.
- Duration: Specify a target clip length, for example around 20 seconds.
- Orientation: Filter by horizontal, vertical, or square aspect ratios.
- Frame Rate: Match a frame rate such as 30 fps to your timeline.
- Color or Hue: Search by a specific color value or hexadecimal (HEX) code.
- Audio mood and genre: Filter music by mood, style, or sound-effect category.
Download an asset to your project
Select the asset you want to use. Images, videos, and audio files download directly to your Project panel. Templates (.mogrt and .aet files) save to a folder on your device instead, and you can choose where that folder lives.

Choose where downloaded assets are saved

Select File > Project Settings.
Select the Scratch Disks tab.
Set a location for stock downloads.
