Was 2017 a year of new beginnings and a new profession for you? Presenting a polished look was clearly a priority as resumes took most of the top spots in the print template category, with the clean Resume taking number 1. With over 850 sales, it includes 3 color variations and Microsoft Word, Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, and Indesign formats.

With over 5,000 new templates added this year, presentations became increasingly feature-rich and creative in design. The 2017 Project Presentation Template was this year's biggest seller, achieving over 700 sales with 240 unique slides and 50 recently added slides for 2018.

Top 🎵 Tracks of 2017

It was a huge year for music! And the top track, Stylish Powerful Indie Rock, made some noise with over 3,000 sales and 21 5-star ratings! With a similar sound to The Black Keys or Arctic Monkeys, it's an energetic, upbeat indie rock track with a catchy and powerful guitar riff. The music genre that took the cake this year was once again corporate, though we saw some new favorites appear like epic, ambient and hip-hop.

Top Video Templates of 2017

It may come as no surprise that the year's biggest video template was Big Pack of Elements: the result of a 2-year collaboration between two successful Envato authors who joined forces to create a versatile pack of useful After Effects elements. The final product impressed Envato's review team, delighted customers, and stormed the video marketplace, with more than 2,400 sales. Though we saw growing interest in Final Cut Pro and other timely trends like Drone Footage, After Effects templates still reigned supreme on VideoHive so we compiled a list of 10 AE templates that blew us away in 2017.
