So i found this Site That sells HD Stock Footage For Free , Ya Sells for free. They Offer Free Stock Footage and sound effects to All but only on DVDs which you have to buy for like $10
considering that Istock Video is like $100 a pop and HD videos are $150 – $200 i think its is a good find

Hope this helps

• A tripod.
• Macro lens recommended but not required.
• Photoshop or another graphics editing package.
