Then there is Pixabay (be sure to check the user agreement conditions for each individual photo/video) AND, Pixabay users get a 30 day free access to videos on Adobes Stock (Pixabay's sponsor). So, check it out.
Rotorveideos.com
I already mentioned Rotorvideos.com in a earlier chapter where you not only can use their videos for free but create complete music videos for a small amount.
