Technical Requirements: Making Your Video Submission Shine

Okay, let's get into the nitty-gritty stuff – the technical aspects. We want your videos to look and sound great so that our viewers can enjoy them to the fullest. Here's a rundown of the technical requirements and best practices for video submissions. We are all about quality, so your video meets all the standards.

Video Format and Resolution

We recommend submitting videos in MP4 format. This format offers a good balance between quality and file size, and it is widely compatible with different platforms. When it comes to resolution, aim for 1080p (1920x1080) or higher. High-resolution videos look great on all types of devices, ensuring a better viewing experience for everyone. Although, we are not that strict, so 720p is also accepted. The higher the resolution, the better. Ensure the video is properly encoded so that there are no artifacts or other visual issues.

Audio Quality

Good audio is just as important as good video. Make sure your audio is clear and free from background noise. Use a good microphone to record your voice. It is important to avoid echoes, hisses, or other issues. If you have music or sound effects, ensure they are at an appropriate volume and do not drown out your voiceover or other important sounds.

File Size and Uploading

Large file sizes can make it difficult to upload and download videos. While we want high-quality videos, try to optimize your video for a reasonable file size. We recommend using video compression tools to keep the file size manageable. When uploading your video, make sure you have a stable internet connection. Slow connections can cause uploading issues. If you are facing any upload problems, try to re-upload. If the problem persists, reach out to us, and we will try to help you.

Video Editing and Content

Make sure your video is properly edited. Remove any unnecessary pauses or filler content. Use clear transitions and visual effects to create an engaging experience. Use on-screen text or graphics to highlight key points, provide additional information, or label visuals. Good editing makes all the difference.

Copyright and Licensing

Before you submit your video, make sure that all the content used, including music, images, and video clips, is free of copyright issues. If you are using copyrighted materials, you must have the necessary licenses or permissions. Avoid using any content that you are not authorized to use. Any violation of copyright laws will lead to your video being rejected. Also, always give credit to the source of the content, if you are using it. It is very important.

How to Submit Your Video: Step-by-Step Guide

So you've created an awesome video and are ready to submit it? Fantastic! Follow these steps to ensure a smooth submission process. Make sure to follow all the steps to give your video the best chance of being selected.

Step 1: Prepare Your Video

Before you submit, double-check all technical requirements. Ensure your video meets the resolution, format, and audio quality guidelines. Go back and check the previous steps to ensure that everything is correct. Make sure your video is fully edited and has a clear message. Be sure to remove any unnecessary content.

Step 2: Write a Compelling Description

Next, write a descriptive, engaging description of your video. In this description, include a brief summary of your video's content, any key takeaways, and relevant keywords. Keywords will help us to find your video when we sort the submissions. Make sure your description is clear, concise, and informative. This will help our team understand what your video is about and make it easier to feature it on the channel.

Step 3: Choose a Catchy Title and Thumbnail

Make your video stand out by using a catchy and relevant title. Your title should be a summary of your video content. Your thumbnail should be a visually appealing still from your video. A good thumbnail and title will attract viewers and entice them to watch your video. Take your time to create a good title and thumbnail.

Step 4: Submit Your Video

To submit your video, you must send it to the email address: pseiweatherse@gmail.com. We accept videos as attachments to the email. If the file is too large, use a file-sharing service (like Google Drive or Dropbox) and send us the link. Include your video title, description, and any other relevant information in the email. Make sure your email address is correct so we can communicate with you. Also, if there are any errors or if you need to resubmit, we will let you know.
