Video


We recommend that video of any length be hosted on video servers rather than the BrightWork web servers. Videos less than 10 minutes long can be uploaded to YouTube. Longer videos need to be hosted on other servers, such as Vimeo.

Once you have opened your account and uploaded your video, you sill see the word "Embed" on the video page.

[Note about video size: YouTube now gives you the option to size the video to standard sizes or to a custom width. We recommend the smallest standard size (560 by 340) for your web page. If you are inserting the video into a table, you should check the size of the table cell to determine if you need to customize the size further.]
