Video: Vimeo

CEHD's college Vimeo account helps us host and embed videos on college web sites. Unit marketing communication leads have administrative upload and management capacity in Vimeo. 

Upload your video

• Determine which folder your video should go into if known. (This is typically your department, like SSW or Kin.)

• Vimeo can upload videos directly from Google Drive, Dropbox, and a number of other applications which saves you the hassle of downloading and re-uploading. 

• Note: You can adjust video settings during or after your video loads. See adjust video setting below.

Adjust video settings

As the video starts uploading you can modify the settings.

• Title: This is required, keep it brief and meaningful.

• Description: Add a sentence or two describing the video; you can add links in the description.

• Select a poster frame: You can upload an image or scroll through the video and find a suitable frame.

More settings are available and the well-written Vimeo help section will guide you through the extra features.
