21. I do not Know How to Make Videos. Where do I Even Start?You don't need to be an experienced producer to make videos. All you just need is a camera, and a little motivation. There are all kinds of videos on UNIMUNDO made by all kinds of different people.

Some people make videos with their little digital point and shoot camera that has video capabilities, others are professionals who make a living from making videos, and there are the people in between who make edited videos with slightly nicer video cameras.

Whatever kind of video producer you may be, there are always great videos on UNIMUNDO to get inspired by and we love any kind of video you create.

If you're a beginner, start by making a video of whatever you feel is creative and upload it. If you are feeling slightly more enthusiastic, try editing a video using an editing program. Most computers come with some sort of editing software, and the more you practice editing video with it, the more rewarding it will be.

 To practice editing a video, try making a 5 Vignettes - 5, 5 second video clips put together to make a short video. As you become more familiar with editing, try to make similar videos that you find on UNIMUNDO. You can also join different Groups and ask other users questions about how they make their videos.

Try it you may become a famous producer after all. The sky is the limit! You could also strive to win a UNIMUNDO Award in whichever category you chose. Read the UNIMUNDO Awards Policy.

22. What are the Recommended Settings for Uploading a Video?

 There is no way we can make exporting and/or compression guides for every kind of video software on the market. However, we do want to give you some guidelines for compressing your videos for UNIMUNDO, so look over these tips, find the corresponding settings in your software, and you should be able to make it work for you.

23. What is a Codec

A codec is the format in which your video will be encoded. Different codecs have different features and varying quality. For best results, we recommend using H.264 or “MP4” for the video codec and AAC (Advanced Audio Codec) for the audio codec. If you are on a Windows machine, WMV3 is a good choice for video codec.

24. Frame-Rate & Key-Frames

If there is an option that says "current," it is best to just go with that. Otherwise, this is usually 30 fps (frames per second) for USA, Canada, and Japan, while in Europe and rest of the world it's usually 25 fps. If there is an option for key-frames, use the same value you used for frame rate.

UNIMUNDO does not change the frame rate of your video if it is fewer than 30fps. However, anything faster than that will be capped at 30fps.

25. Data Rate

This setting controls both the visual quality of the video and how big the file will be. In most video editors, this is done in terms of kilobits per second (Kbits/sec or kbps). Use 2000 Kbits/sec, for standard definition, 4:3 video, 3000 Kbits/sec for widescreen DV, or 5000 Kbits/sec, for high definition footage.

26. Deinterlace

If you have this option, enable it. If you shoot in DV format, this is an especially important. If you do not deinterlace, you will often get weird-looking horizontal lines in your video.

27. Resolution

640x480 for standard definition 4:3 video, 853x480 for widescreen DV, or 1280x720 for high definition. It is also best to export 1920x1080 or 1440x1080 video as 1280x720 too, since we will automatically scale it down. If you have the option to control the pixel aspect ratio (not display aspect ratio) make sure it's set to "1:1" or "1.00", also sometimes called "square pixels."

28. Audio Settings

 Choose AAC for the audio codec. You'll want to set the bit rate to 320 kbps and the sample rate to 44.100 kHz.

29. Note about UNIMUNDO's Encoders

Our encoders do not like Apple Pro-Res codecs. They're very intense codecs that create a hassle for our servers. If you insist on using your own settings, please avoid using Apple Pro-Res.

30. If Something Goes wrong, or does not Work...What Should I do?

Try again! Sometimes the best way to fix a problem is to try it again by refreshing your computer.

If your problem does not work after multiple attempts, try holding down the “shift” button on your keyboard and pushing the reload button on your browser. This method resets the cache in your browser which will often clear up any problems. If this method still doesn’t work, quit your browser and reopen it and try again.

31. Is there any cool UNIMUNDO merchandise?

Yes! We have UNIMUNDO t-shirts and caps available.

32. Is there a hi-resolution UNIMUNDO logo available for download?
