2. We ask folks to use YouTube to host your ASL Abstract Submission. If you’ve never uploaded a video to YouTube basic instructions are below:

1. Create and finalize your video, making sure you do not use copyrighted material or material used without permission of the owner. The following formats are accepted: most digital camera formats and camcorders and cell phones in .AVI, .MOV and .MPG file formats. Once you’ve finished editing your video, made sure it’s no more than 3 minutes in length, smaller than 75MB, and in an acceptable format, you’re ready to upload it.

2. Create an account with YouTube with a confirmed email address.

3. Click the “Upload” button in the upper-right-hand corner of any YouTube page.

4. 
   Click the large red icon, or the button to Select files from your computer. This will open a menu where you can choose which file you want to upload. Once you have located the file, select Open to begin the upload. Alternatively, you can simply drag files from your computer and drop them on the page to begin an upload.
   
   
5. Enter as much information about your video as possible, including Title, Description, Tags, and Category. The more information you include, the easier it is for raters to find your video.
6. Set your video to "Unlisted"which allows you to share the link with the CIT conference committee, but not have it be available to the public.
7. Copy and paste the YouTube link for your video and send it with your submission to the anna.witter-merithew@unco.edu< by Friday, March 2^nd, 2012.
8. If you have more questions on how to upload your video, please see the YouTube Submission Guide.
