Pictory’s AI automatically assigns visuals to your text, but if you prefer a different image that better fits the scene, you can search for alternatives in the Pictory Library. Our extensive collection includes unlimited visuals from Getty Images, Storyblocks, Unsplash, and Pixabay.

Here are quick steps to search for suitable images:

  1. In the Left Menu, go to Visuals, under the Library tab, you will see a search bar.

  2. Use the search bar to enter a keyword, or choose from the suggested keywords based on your scene’s text.

  3. Browse through the search results of video and image suggestions related to your keyword.

  4. Once you find a visual you like, simply select it to apply it to the current scene.

    1. The visual will be added as a background visual this way. If you want to add it as a layer, click the '+' that appears on the top right corner of of the visual.
