Tips:
What is WMV?
WMV stands for Windows Media Video. It is a compressed video file
format for several proprietary codecs developed by Microsoft. The
original codec, known as WMV, was originally designed for Internet
streaming applications, as a competitor to Real Video.
Why WMV to MOV?
WMV is used for both streaming and downloading content via the
Internet. You can playback and manage the files of this format on
Windows Media Player. However, for the Mac users, they have habit of
using QuickTime and iMovie, and MOV format is compatible with both
Macintosh and Windows platforms, so the conversion from WMV to MOV is
necessary.
Make a movie using a digital camera
, web cam, or cell phone. An old VHS will only work if you transfer it to a digital file—you’ll need a digital converter to plug an older camcorder into the computer. You can upload a YouTube movie directly from a phone if you set up a Mobile Profile in YouTube. With a high speed connection, it should generally take a few minutes, give or take.
Step2
Edit your movie. Programs such as Mac’s iMovie or Windows’ MovieMaker are both good—add titles, effects, cut out a bad take, etc.
Step3
Resize the video so it looks best in YouTube. The site accepts QuickTime .MOV, Windows .AVI, or .MPG files at 340x240 resolution. There’s a 100MB size and 10 minute length limit.
Step4
Create a YouTube account. Click on Upload Videos in the upper right corner of the home page.
Step5
Create a title, description, tags, category, and set language. The more information the better to help people find the video.
