6.0 Orientation

Video length detrmines the best orientation:

Less than 3 minutes (landscape)

Less than 1-minute (portrait)

7.0 Bio and Links

Provide a brief bio and any relevant link you want us to include on any posts we share on social media.  Links have to take people to a place which is relevant to your video.

You might use it to showcase your work, make an appeal for fundraising or do a ‘how to’ encouraging others to copy you.  It is up to you – but make the link relevant.

8.0 Branding is fine.

We have no issue if you need to include organisational branding on the video.

9.0 Opportunity

Contributors will only upload 3 video’s per year – so make it your best work!

10.0 Originality equals traction

We only accept original material.  This is because videos that have been shared before elsewhere generally do not perform well on social media.  If you want your message to be heard, create a new video.
