Need Help:How to create Video for YC Application?

1 points by kshitizanand 14 years ago | 4 comments

I am submitting an application for YC. My co-founders are in geographically distatnt places and it is not possible to get all together to create a video at one place. I would like suggestions on how to create/submit the video for the application.

I'd suggest you using skype there's a ton of free software that lets you do the same. But honestly, I'd suggest doing a real video for your application to make sure it has a higher production quality.

A lot of times it isn't what you say but how you say it.

I personally use adobe premier and afteraffects to make sure that the intro, content and outro looks tight. You could also use final cut pro but im not an appler person.

i think its important to use a decent film editor so that you can level everyone's sound and make sure that message comes through clearly... but i admit i may be over thinking it.

Record a skype or Google hangout video call. Probably easiest to use an external camera for recording, instead of wasting time with screen capture etc.

Thanks! Was just wondering if that is acceptable!
