TriLab Productions Digital Hotcakes Stock Footage Library Review (page 2)
I'll Take a Second Helping
It appears that each and every clip from all of the above mentioned collections, plus others in TriLab's additional collections can be viewed at TriLab's Web site. Click on the thumbnails to see how they are animated or view the demo reels that accompany some of the collections. All backgrounds loop and all the collections come in either NTSC or PAL. Though some of the animations could be updated (along with some of the tutorials), the royalty-free Hotcake animations, intros, outros, looping backgrounds, transitions, wipes and overlays are a great addition at a low price point.
