Checkout the blog post to fetch all video assets using Photos Framework http://iavinashkashyap.blogspot.in/2016/11/get-list-of-all-videos.html

Code:

-(void) getAllVideoAssets{

NSMutableArray *assets = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
//Fetch all video assets from Photos
PHFetchResult *assetResults = [PHAsset fetchAssetsWithMediaType:PHAssetMediaTypeVideo options:nil];
//get all assets
for (PHAsset *asset in assetResults){
    NSLog(@"asset type = %zd", asset.mediaType);
    [assets addObject:asset];
}
self.allVideoslistArray = [[NSMutableArray alloc] init];
//create an instance of PHImageManager
PHImageManager *manager = [PHImageManager defaultManager];
for(PHAsset *asset in assets){
    //block of code for represent video assets
    [manager requestAVAssetForVideo:asset options:nil resultHandler:^(AVAsset * _Nullable asset, AVAudioMix * _Nullable audioMix, NSDictionary * _Nullable info) {
        if ([asset isKindOfClass:[AVURLAsset class]]) {
            NSURL *url = (NSURL *)[[(AVURLAsset *)asset URL] fileReferenceURL];
            UIImage *thumbnail = [self createThunbnailImage:url];
            [self.allVideoslistArray addObject:@{@"VideoUrl":url,@"ThumbnailImage":thumbnail, @"VideoAsset":asset}];
        }
    }];
}//end for loop

}
