Excellent work HousePlant, very impressive!

I've done a few sound design projects in the past, but they were more for a specific tasks, like commercial branding and adding foley-type sounds in various little jobs.
May I ask, how do you go about getting these video clips to do your sound effect mockups? Can you simply download them off YouTube or some other online resource? I'd like to put together a reel for sound design (I do a lot music for post but want to expand and always loved sound design), I just wonder where to get good quality clips like that (ie: movie trailers, commercials, etc.)

Thanks and keep up the good work!
