GUIDELINE ON HOW TO UPLOAD VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE

To get started uploading videos on YouTube, follow the steps below:

1. Sign into YouTube Sign in using Google Accounts and YouTube

You need a Google Account to sign into YouTube. A


Google Account gives you access to all Google products
(e.g. Gmail, Google Groups, Picasa, Web History, YouTube,
and more).

If you've signed into any of these products before, you


already have a Google Account. To sign in, enter the email
address you entered on those products (if you use Gmail,
it's your Gmail username). If you don't have a Google
Account, you can create one when you sign up for
YouTube.

Sign up for an account on YouTube

If you don't have a Google Account, here's how to get


started:

 Create a Google Account on your computer


 Click Sign in the upper right corner of YouTube on
your computer.
 Click Create Account and enter some basic
information to create your new Google Account.
You'll be asked to create a Google username when
signing up. This is your new Gmail email address
only - it will not be your public name on YouTube.
 Once you're done setting up your Google Account,
click Back to YouTube.

2. Click the Upload button Select the video you'd like to upload from your computer.
at the top of the page.
Before you start uploading the video you can chose the
video privacy settings.
As the video is uploading, you can add information (e.g.
title, description, tags), change your privacy settings

Make sure that you’re using one of the following formats:

.MOV
.MPEG4
.AVI
.WMV
.MPEGPS
.FLV
3GPP
WebM

3. Video privacy settings When you upload a video, by default it has been set as a
“Public” video, which means that anybody can view it. You
can easily change the privacy settings from “Public” to
“Unlisted” while you’re uploading the video in the “Privacy
Settings” section. Or, if you’ve already uploaded the video,
you can change the privacy settings by following the steps
below:

 Visit your Video Manager.


 Find the video you’d like to change, then click the
Edit button.
 In the “Privacy Settings” drop-down menu, select
Unlisted.
 Click Save changes.

*Unlisted videos
Making a video unlisted means that only people who have
the link to the video can view it. To share an unlisted
video, just share the link with the people who you’d like to
have access to it, and they’ll then be able to see it. Unlike
private videos, the people you share the video with do not
need to have a Google account to see the video, and they
can share with more people simply by forwarding the link
to them.
Unlisted videos won’t appear in any of YouTube's public
spaces, like your channel page or search results.

Note : Please do not set your privacy setting as “Private”.


The people who have the link will not be able to view your
video.
4. Share your video You can share your video on the “Upload to YouTube”
screen, or you can do it after it’s already uploaded by
navigating to the video through the Video Manager.
Under the “Share” section of the “Info and Settings” page,
you can simply tap on the URL to copy it to your
assignment.
5. IMPORTANT NOTES  Please ensure your privacy setting is correct. E-graders
will not be able to view your video / audio if the
setting is wrong
 Please make sure you copy the correct video / audio
link into your assignment. If the link is not included in
the assignment, resubmission of assignment / link will
not be allowed
 The video / audio link should be highlighted in blue
with underline text. Example :
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9qPvYJOKWu4
