Motion Array alternative: tools vs assets

What is Motion Array?

Motion Array is a subscription library of assets for video editors. Depending on the plan, you get templates, presets, motion graphics, stock footage, music, sound effects, photos, video-editing plugins, LUTs and AI voiceovers. The Motion Array pricing page lists five plans. The text we checked on 3 November 2026 shows no prices.

We make mouzeclick, one of the options on this page. It is a different kind of product: a plan of tools, not a library of assets. Below, we say plainly where Motion Array or Envato Elements is the better buy.

• Video Templates: one user, aimed at content creators and freelancers. It includes video templates, presets and motion graphics.
• AI Voiceover: AI voiceovers only.
• Everything: one user. It includes video templates and presets, motion graphics, footage, music and sound effects, graphics and photos, video-editing plugins and LUTs, plus AI voiceovers.
• Team: 2 to 7 seats, for companies with fewer than 50 employees worldwide.
• Business: for agencies and companies with 50+ employees. It supports unlimited users and comes with a licence covering commercial use worldwide, priority customer care and a dedicated account manager. The plan is tailored with a business expert.

Downloads are unlimited on a paid plan. The subscription covers a single user, and automatic downloading tools are not allowed. You pay by PayPal or any credit card, and local taxes may apply.

The licence is broad. Motion Array says its assets can go into anything from social media videos to advertisements to feature films. Projects you create while you pay are covered for lifetime. Nearly all assets are cleared for commercial use. A small number of image and video assets are labelled “Editorial use only” and are not covered for advertising, movies and paid media.

Why do people look for a Motion Array alternative?

Most of the reasons come from Motion Array's own published terms. One more is a job that isn't an asset at all.

• No price in the pricing page text. On 3 November 2026 the page named each plan and what it holds, but showed no amounts. Envato Elements shows a starting price on its home page.
• Downloads stop working for new projects when you cancel. Once a paid subscription is cancelled, downloaded assets can't go into new projects. Videos you made and published while you paid stay covered.
• One subscription is one user. A second editor means the Team plan (2 to 7 seats) or Business.
• A few items are editorial only. Check the label before an asset goes into an ad or paid media.
• The time goes into the edit, not the search. Cutting pauses, keyframing zooms and captioning take the same work however big the catalogue is. A tool plan is built for that.

If the first four points are the problem, you want another asset library. If the last one is, skip to the tools section.

Price, trial and licence

What you get, where it runs

Is Envato Elements a good Motion Array alternative?

Yes, if you want the same kind of product. Envato Elements is an asset subscription with unlimited downloads, and it is the closest like-for-like swap. Its home page also publishes a starting price and catalogue counts, which Motion Array's pricing page text does not.

This is what the Envato Elements home page showed on 3 November 2026:

• Price: “From $16.50 / month”. The page doesn't say which plan that is, whether it is billed monthly or yearly, or whether it is a localised price.
• Catalogue: 30M+ items across all categories. Its After Effects page FAQ gives a different figure, over 23+ million assets and templates.
• By type: 160,000+ video templates, 10.2M+ stock videos, 350,000+ royalty-free music tracks and 950,000+ sound effects.
• Extras: AI tools for video, image and audio, inside the same subscription.
• Licence: a lifetime commercial licence covering everything you download or generate. Templates downloaded under a valid subscription can be used in personal and commercial projects indefinitely.

Envato describes its template files in detail:

• After Effects templates come as .aep projects with labelled compositions, text and media placeholders, and colour controllers. They typically run from HD (1080p) to 4K. Version support varies by template: some work in CS5.5 or CS6, and others need CC or later.
• Premiere Pro templates come as .mogrt files that install into the Essential Graphics panel, or as .prproj projects. They also run from HD to 4K and suit recent versions of Premiere Pro.

Some things are not published on the pages we checked: plan tiers, trial terms, cancellation terms and supported operating systems.

Best for: editors who want a large stock catalogue with a price they can see before signing up, and templates for Resolve, Final Cut Pro or Apple Motion as well as Adobe apps.

Motion Array vs Envato Elements: which is better?

Going by what each maker publishes, Envato Elements is easier to price and size up. Motion Array is clearer about plan contents, team seats and what happens when you cancel. Neither is better for every editor, so compare the points that matter to you.

Pick Motion Array if you need a small team on seats, want plugins and LUTs in the same plan as footage and music, or want an AI voiceover plan on its own.

Pick Envato Elements if you want a published starting price, published counts for each asset type, and templates listed for editors beyond Premiere Pro and After Effects.

For either one, read the licence terms before you cancel, and note which asset went into which project.

Where mouzeclick fits (we make it)

mouzeclick is a plan of tools, not a library. It has no stock footage, music, sound effects, photos or voiceovers. It handles the work you do on your own footage inside Premiere Pro and After Effects, and it puts shortcuts on your mouse in every app.

• The mouse app (Windows and Mac) works with any mouse, with no driver. Buttons act per app, and each button has eleven slots: tap, hold and move in four directions, a chord with another button, or hold and scroll. You also get macros, hotkeys and 309 built-in shortcuts on Windows.
• Three wheels. The Options wheel on F8 holds 48 favourites per app. The Orbit switch on F9 puts up to 12 open apps on one ring. The Tool wheel opens with F10 or a held right button and works only in Premiere Pro and After Effects: 112 tools in Premiere Pro and 114 in After Effects. See the After Effects Tool wheel guide.
• mouzeclick Studio in Premiere Pro. By default, the Silence tab marks every pause quieter than −40 dB that lasts 0.40 s or more. It keeps 0.12 s around speech and saves a copy of the sequence, on Windows and Mac. Our Premiere Pro silence remover guide walks through it. Captions written on your computer by Whisper, and Retakes, are Windows only.
• 22 extensions, on Windows and Mac: 15 for After Effects, 8 for Premiere Pro, and mouzegrade in both. Each has a card on the extensions page.
• Two workspaces, on Windows only. The After Effects workspace holds 800+ tools, presets and templates, and the Premiere Pro workspace holds 300+. The workspace atlas lists every section. The Mac app does not include them.

It needs an internet connection while it runs. One key is for one person on one computer at a time. See the plan and the 3-day trial.

Best for: editors and motion designers who already have their footage and music, and who lose time on the mechanics of the edit.

Which Motion Array assets can a tool plan replace?

A tool plan can replace some presets, transitions and templates. It cannot replace footage, music, sound effects, photos or voiceovers. The overlap is narrow, and it works differently: mouzeclick builds these inside Premiere Pro or After Effects on your own layers and clips, rather than handing you a project file to download.

What overlaps

• Text animation. Type studio has 159 presets (After Effects workspace, Windows). mouzetype adds 17 kinetic type styles as real text animators you can retime (Windows and Mac). See the After Effects text presets page.
• Transitions. mouzeflow puts 15 transitions between After Effects layers, and mouzetrans puts 11 on Premiere Pro cuts. Both run on Windows and Mac. The mouzeflow feature list and the mouzetrans feature list show every option. The Premiere Pro workspace adds 10 light-leak transitions (Windows).
• UI and product promos. Shape studio has 81 animated UI templates, edited before they build (Windows). See the After Effects UI templates page. mouzesaas adds app screens, device frames, a clicking cursor and charts (Windows and Mac).
• Motion extras. The workspaces add 14 camera shakes and flickers and 44 ready easing curves (Windows). mouzeicons has 90 UI icons and mouzeaccent has 12 accents (Windows and Mac).
• Colour. mouzegrade has six built-in looks and loads your .cube LUTs, with scopes, on Windows and Mac. It reads LUTs but is not a LUT library. See the mouzegrade feature list.
• Caption styles. There are 289 styled caption looks in 27 families, drawn as pictures on a track above the edit (Windows).

What it can't replace

• Stock footage, music, sound effects, photos and graphics.
• Voiceovers.
• Large packs of finished video templates for client work.
• Templates for editors other than Premiere Pro and After Effects.

Does it work in DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro or on a Mac?

Motion Array's pricing page doesn't say which editors its templates support, so we write “Not published”. Envato Elements lists DaVinci Resolve, Final Cut Pro and Apple Motion among the compatible tools for its video templates. mouzeclick has no Resolve or Final Cut panel, but its mouse app still works in both, like any app.

• In Resolve: per-app buttons, gestures, macros and the Options and Orbit wheels work. The Windows shortcut library includes 41 DaVinci Resolve shortcuts, and there are ready-made wheels for Premiere Pro, After Effects, DaVinci Resolve, Photoshop and CapCut. The Tool wheel works only in Premiere Pro and After Effects. Our DaVinci Resolve shortcuts list shows which keys are worth putting on buttons.
• On a Mac (macOS 12+, Apple Silicon or Intel): you get the mouse app, all three wheels, the 22 extensions, Search effects, the Toolbar, and Studio's Silence, Timeline and Guides tabs.
• Windows only: the two workspaces, Studio captions (auto, styled and Hinglish), Retakes, cloud sync and in-app updates.

Apple has not notarized the Mac app yet. The first time it opens, you allow it under System Settings › Privacy & Security › Security › Open Anyway. The Mac install guide covers the four steps.

Where Motion Array is still the better pick

Motion Array is the better pick whenever the job is media you don't have. mouzeclick can't help there. Be clear about what you need before you switch:

• Stock footage, music and sound effects. The Everything plan includes all three. mouzeclick has none.
• Graphics and photos. These are in the Everything plan too.
• AI voiceovers. Motion Array sells them on their own plan and includes them in Everything. mouzeclick offers nothing like it.
• One bill for plugins and LUTs alongside stock media. The Everything plan lists video-editing plugins and LUTs in the same subscription.
• Teams. The Team plan covers 2 to 7 seats. Business supports unlimited users, with priority customer care and a dedicated account manager. mouzeclick is one key per person.
• A broad commercial licence. Motion Array covers uses from social videos to feature films.

If two or more of these describe your work, keep the asset subscription. Add tools only if the edit itself is the bottleneck.

Which should you choose: Motion Array, Envato Elements or mouzeclick?

Choose by the job. Use an asset library for media you don't have, and tools for work you repeat on media you do have. Many editors need both.

• Pick Motion Array if you want footage, music, plugins and LUTs on one plan, need team seats, or want voiceovers.
• Pick Envato Elements if you want a published starting price ($16.50 / month as shown on 3 November 2026), published counts for each asset type, and templates listed for Resolve and Final Cut Pro.
• Pick mouzeclick if you edit in Premiere Pro or After Effects and want silence cuts, Tool wheels and one-click panels. Captions, Retakes and the workspaces need Windows.
• Keep an asset library and add tools if you buy stock every month and also spend much of each edit on repeat work.
