Uploading your video to your Google Drive has advantages – primarily that it’s really private. There’s no chance anyone will find it by accident.
However, the biggest disadvantage is that you won’t have any automated subtitles. You CAN create subtitles in ClipChamp, but it’s a really laborious process that’s made much easier in YouTube.
Anyways, here’s the process.
- Open up your Google Drive.
- Right-Click on the white space at the top and choose “Upload File.”
- Select your movie file (should be in mp4 or mpeg format).
- Once it’s uploaded, right-click on the file to get its share link and turn it in. That’s it.
You can also click on the “New” button in the top left and select “Upload File.”
Once it’s uploaded…
- Right click the file and select “Share.”
- In the Share Dialogue Box, make sure you either
- Choose “Anyone with the Link” or make it public with anyone in your organization.
- Copy the link.
- Paste the link into a new document and download it as a PDF for submission. Put your name in the file, too, to prevent confusion.
