How to mix stock and AI images in one video

Combine stock media and AI-generated images in one video for a tailored visual mix.

Written by Emmanuel Rances

When to use

Use this when you want to:

  • Combine realistic stock footage with creative AI visuals

  • Add AI images to specific sections only

  • Keep branding consistent while using generated art

  • Go beyond stock libraries for certain shots


Steps

  1. Open your project.

  2. Select the section or clip where you want a different media type.

  3. In the Asset panel on the right, choose Replace.

  4. Select either:

    • AI Image to generate a new visual, or

    • A stock media source to browse available images.

  5. Select or generate the image you want to insert.

Repeat for other sections to mix AI and stock visuals throughout your video. For videos built primarily from AI-generated visuals, see How to create generative image videos.
