Website 

Student Communications can pull videos, copy, info-graphics and whatever else you need to a website to have an online event that students can access on particular dates or whenever. We can even pull videos from your real-time event to a website that you can share with participants and those who may have missed the event.

We can take the whole event live for a time span, but we cannot upload different videos and information every day.

What We Need From You

  • Please let us know at least a month in advance that you plan on doing a website event.
  • We need FINALIZED videos at least 2 weeks before the page needs to launch.
  • We do not edit videos - they must be finalized when you send them.
  • If we are hosting the videos in Kaltura, send videos as .mp4 or .mov files.
  • If you are hosting the video on your YouTube channel, we need the link. 
  • You are in-charge of captioning your videos.
    • If we are hosting your video in Kaltura, there may be some options to help you with captioning.
