RULES
1) Please DO NOT send .wmv files. Please convert them to either .mov, .mp4, or .avi before sending them. This will save us a lot of time! :D
2) Please subtitle your videos in English if you are speaking a language other than English. Monica and Irene from Mexico did this and it really helped a lot! If you can't subtitle, please send us an English translation in your e-mail when you send us the video.
3)Please make your answers clear. Please, please, please think about what you're saying and try to make your answers as clear as possible without using a lot of fillers (uhh...umm....etc). I know, this is hard for me too. I tried to cut out a lot of it last time but when the fillers were in the middle of an important thought, it was hard to maneuver around it.
4)Remember that you can do more than one take of a question. If you want to send me each question in a separate video file, that's fine! If you were going to do this, though, I'd appreciate it if you could send them in a .zip file!
5)PLEASE DO NOT USE COPYWRITTEN MATERIALS IN YOUR VIDEO. I know that background music and such adds a nice touch, but it also puts the video in danger of being flagged for removal. Also sometimes it's difficult to hear what you're saying with the BG music.
6)PLEASE KEEP EDITING TO A MINIMUM. This means try not to use fancy transitions and things like that that might make it difficult for me to smoothly put your video into the lineup. But of course feel free to edit out things that you said but didn't like, etc.
7)Please be aware that if we receive a ton of videos, we might rotate who gets to be in a video or not each week. I don't foresee this being a problem, but just in case please don't get angry.
So the deadline for the QUESTIONNAIRE VIDEOS: Japan Time February 5th, 2010! Please e-mail us with any concerns.
