How to publish and share videos on Facebook

Do you ever find that you want to share a video with your friends on Facebook but that you do not want all your friends to see it? Back in March we looked at how to publish and optimize your videos for Viddler, which is rich in interactive features such as tagging clips and leaving video comments on a video. But few sites if any today compare to the sharing capabilities in Facebook, including with your videos.

This month’s AC Video Webinar continues an ongoing exploration of various online video publishing possibilities and while Facebook is not out to be the premier publisher in online video, there certainly is a lot of potential in sharing your videos on Facebook.

As with all your content on Facebook, videos you publish can be LIKED by others and also SHARED with others, and you can specify who can and can not view your videos. This makes Facebook a viable destination for publishing personal video materials to the web and videos you use for work and other purposes.

AutoConversion would like to welcome back our friend and colleague Roger Stix from Atlanta Business Video as our guest presenter who will share with us some useful tips for getting your videos onto Facebook. Roger is the chief Producer at ABV and has extensive experience in video production, publishing, and syndication.

Stix will give us insight on formatting your videos properly for use on Facebook. He then will walk us through the process of….

  • Publishing videos to your Facebook Profile
  • Making your videos appear on a Page
  • Making your videos appear in a Group
  • Sharing your video with friends and lists

Please join us for this insightful look at the use of videos on Facebook this Thursday April 29 at 11:30am EST. We will begin with a brief orientation of the AC Webinar series and registration process before handing the controls over to Roger for his presentation which should last about 30-40 minutes.

Publishing and optimizing videos on Viddler

Viddler.comWhen it comes to doing video on the web you have a lot to consider. Some of this includes things like how to prepare your videos for the web, how to publish them, and how to get them seen, not to mention the act of producing your videos. Each of these things takes time and planning, two commodities that burn up fast in today’s business world.

While we can not cover all of these things in a single webinar, we can take a stab at them bit by bit, in an orderly fashion, which is precisely what we set out to do. In our last AC Video Webinar we looked at How to publish video to Brightcove and several months ago we offered some tips and advice on preparing to make videos for the web in general.

This week we are pleased to welcome our friend Roger Stix at Atlanta Business Video as our guest presenter who will share with us some tips for getting your final videos to the web using Viddler. Roger is the chief Producer at ABV and has extensive experience in video production, publishing, and syndication.

    Introduction to Brightcove Video Media and Publishing Modules

    Power On w/ ACThis week’s webinar for AC Video will be an introduction to the Brightcove online video platform, one of the world’s leading online video platforms. The webinar is Thursday at 11:30 am EST. See our training schedule for details and registration.

    Brightcove was recently recognized as a leader by Forrester Research, Inc. in its report, The Forrester Wave™: U.S. Online Video Platforms, Q4 2009, which was published today. Brightcove was among the select companies that Forrester invited to participate in its Wave report, and the company received top scores across all of the major evaluation categories.

    We are new to the system but have been considering Brightcove among other online video content providers for several months now. We believe the system has the innovative platform we need today, and the vision and leadership to keep pace with our ever-changing video needs.

    The webinar will concentrate on 2 of the 4 core modules of Brightcove:

    1. Media
    2. Publishing

    For the Media module we will be looking at how to upload new media and associate media with a list.

    For the Publishing module we will look at how to create a project/player and, time permitting, may even go through one way to place your video on your blog or website using Hana Code Insert, a WP plug-in we commonly use on our WordPress sites.
