Video tricks and tips
Shooting:
- Light it up! Strong, clean lighting will help get you noticed ... dancing in the dark is for clubbers.
- Steady Freddie and lock that camera off! Use a tripod, a wall, a bag, a table anything, just make sure it's stable.
- Sounds like what? Good sound MAKES a good video. Use a mic if
you have one, and background noise is a no no. We want to hear you,
not the neighbours.
Editing:
- Keep it simple, we don't need anything complicated! Just a
single shot will do, and a quick title board with your name, and
contact details if you can manage it.
Uploading:
- Filesize: Please keep files under 100MB - remember we're just after a taste.
- Length: Two mins max
- Formats: We'll take any videos in the following formats: mov, mp4, m4v, mpg, mpeg, ogv, ogg, flv, wmv, avi
- Compression: If you need to scrunch your video down to 100MB, or change formats to get it to us, we recommend the following, free, apps:
- FreeMake (PC Users): http://www.freemake.com/free_video_converter/
- Handbrake (PC & MAC):

Be patient:
- Once you've hit "Submit" it could take a long time to successfully upload depending on file size and your internet connection. You should see a progress indicator letting you know that everything's ticking over.
