The Internet used to be only for research. However, it has grown greatly since than, and so have its uses. Billions of people now rely on the Internet for their entertainment. YouTube is one of those forms of entertainment. It's a website that permits its visitors to view video material uploaded by users. You can look at other people's homemade videos, and even upload and share some video material of your own.
Making your own video is a lot of fun, and not as hard as it sounds. Many people of all different ages are making their own videos and sharing them on YouTube. These can be used to show a favorite scene from a TV show, share information and how to's, or just be funny. If you want to get involved in making your own video, get started thinking up some ideas now!
Remember that the idea is the most important part of your video. Too many people just stick to reading about the technical details. This is all well and good, but YouTube takes care of most of that. You can worry about your content instead, since YouTube offers one of the easiest processes of upload you can find on the Internet.
The first step is, of course, making your own video. You'll have to get a standard video recording device, like a camcorder or a webcam. You can make pretty much any kind of video you like, as long as you adhere to the terms and standards. Remember that thousands of people are going to see your video, so make sure it's appropriate. Warn potential viewers if you're going to put any kind of foul language, graphic material, or other possibly objectionable content in. You can put this warning in your YouTube video's title.
Remember that there are several limitations when you post on YouTube. These include video length and file size. YouTube currently limits your uploaded video to a length of no more than ten minutes. It must also be less than a hundred megabytes in file size. There are some other rules in the terms of use agreement that you should be sure to check on. However, beyond that, there are no additional restrictions. You may make as many videos as you choose, for instance. This means that if you want to make a longer piece, you can simply split it up into two parts.
You must be able to save your video into a file, using movie making software. There are many different offerings in this category, including names like MovieMaker and Imovie. You can easily download these programs, or your computer may already come with the appropriate software. This is often the case on newer computers. Open your video on the computer with one of these programs, and you can edit and save it.
When you upload your video, you must first be a member. Membership on YouTube is free. Signing up is just a way for the site to keep your information attached to your videos so that they can be tracked. Since a lot of people upload many different videos, this is important. Once you've signed in, you should be able to find a link to allow you to create and upload your video content. Just follow the directions there, and you'll soon have your very own YouTube video. If you have a fast Internet connection, your video could be online in just a few minutes.
