1
00:00:00,240 --> 00:00:01,740
So now the fun stuff.

2
00:00:01,770 --> 00:00:04,260
I want to show you how to actually upload that piece content.

3
00:00:04,290 --> 00:00:07,260
So before you saw me, if we go back to my videos.

4
00:00:07,260 --> 00:00:07,620
Right.

5
00:00:08,010 --> 00:00:12,300
You're just gonna come into videos as standalone or episodic and hit ad title, and that's going to

6
00:00:12,300 --> 00:00:15,420
take you to this screen right here where you can type in the title.

7
00:00:15,450 --> 00:00:20,070
If it's nuttery in there, you can select the category mine specifically at educational.

8
00:00:20,490 --> 00:00:22,360
Then you're going to type in a short synopsis.

9
00:00:22,380 --> 00:00:26,490
We already covered the graphic assets and how to actually do the thumbnails here.

10
00:00:26,700 --> 00:00:29,460
So how to resize and how to create them, things to keep in mind.

11
00:00:29,670 --> 00:00:33,420
So where you go through the synopsis now, because the titles in there, as Posch marks elative.

12
00:00:33,450 --> 00:00:37,080
So when selling, we're just gonna write 400 characters.

13
00:00:37,080 --> 00:00:41,520
You get a foreigner characters and you want to throw in a good written, you know, synopsis.

14
00:00:41,550 --> 00:00:45,150
They're basically a summary of what is in the video and what the video is about.

15
00:00:45,360 --> 00:00:48,600
So that people potentially watching it can a read it on Amazon.

16
00:00:48,930 --> 00:00:53,190
And also so that people that are also also excuse me.

17
00:00:53,400 --> 00:00:58,650
So that Amazon has some more metadata and some more keywords to basically categorize this and organize

18
00:00:58,650 --> 00:01:00,870
this and suggest it to the right people.

19
00:01:00,900 --> 00:01:02,550
So make sure you take some time on this.

20
00:01:02,820 --> 00:01:08,790
Use as many is close to foreigner characters as you possibly can, but still giving good value and still

21
00:01:08,790 --> 00:01:11,740
putting good summary and emphasis on what's in the video.

22
00:01:11,790 --> 00:01:13,710
So let me try to go through this really fast.

23
00:01:13,740 --> 00:01:15,910
So when selling on Poche Mark.

24
00:01:18,070 --> 00:01:18,330
Wow.

25
00:01:19,330 --> 00:01:19,820
Oh, my God.

26
00:01:20,000 --> 00:01:20,670
Compost mark.

27
00:01:21,090 --> 00:01:38,280
There are several things that you want to keep in mind is if you can master these things, your sales

28
00:01:38,310 --> 00:01:40,110
will skyrocket.

29
00:01:40,560 --> 00:01:44,610
And one of the ways that I like to do this tube without getting too too in-depth with it is I've always

30
00:01:44,610 --> 00:01:50,790
written out really, really, really detailed thum earth, detailed descriptions for my app, for my

31
00:01:50,790 --> 00:01:54,910
YouTube videos, because it's also one of the ways that, you know, people can find you through research

32
00:01:54,940 --> 00:02:00,030
and also gives YouTube more information to categorize you and basically suggest you out to other people

33
00:02:00,030 --> 00:02:01,350
that are more right for that video.

34
00:02:01,530 --> 00:02:02,470
So you always want to give.

35
00:02:02,490 --> 00:02:05,940
Whether it's YouTube or Amazon, as much information as you possibly can.

36
00:02:06,210 --> 00:02:10,290
A lot of people skimp on their YouTube descriptions, just like a lot of people will try to get away

37
00:02:10,290 --> 00:02:14,550
with and shortcut, not writing a good synopsis here with a bunch of potential good keywords.

38
00:02:14,790 --> 00:02:16,500
And that's a mistake that you don't want to make.

39
00:02:16,530 --> 00:02:21,110
You want to give them as much, whether it's Amazon or YouTube or literally anybody even in your youth.

40
00:02:21,390 --> 00:02:26,520
If it's a Udemy course, even in your Udemy course description, you want to give as much potential

41
00:02:26,520 --> 00:02:29,250
metadata and as much potential keywords as possible.

42
00:02:29,430 --> 00:02:33,780
Give them the most information so that they can suggest it in the right places to the right people.

43
00:02:33,930 --> 00:02:35,190
That way you can make more money.

44
00:02:35,190 --> 00:02:35,520
Right.

45
00:02:35,850 --> 00:02:40,380
So I guess one of things I like to do sometimes is literally take the summary and my description and

46
00:02:40,380 --> 00:02:42,510
I'll just reformat it and about 400 characters.

47
00:02:42,720 --> 00:02:44,520
But I won't waste your time and do that right here.

48
00:02:44,520 --> 00:02:47,370
So I'm just gonna write a short one for the sake of saving you some time.

49
00:02:47,550 --> 00:02:49,160
So genre this is one of the tricky ones.

50
00:02:49,170 --> 00:02:54,150
You have to kind of go through and see exactly the different categories here that you want to categorize

51
00:02:54,150 --> 00:02:55,860
your video as most of the time.

52
00:02:55,890 --> 00:03:00,450
I usually go education because obviously this is an education based, you know, video.

53
00:03:01,080 --> 00:03:03,000
So I'll go nonfiction, educational.

54
00:03:03,870 --> 00:03:09,480
We'll also go educational, professional and career development while school, business and finance.

55
00:03:09,930 --> 00:03:12,390
Now you can just play around and see what categories are which.

56
00:03:12,450 --> 00:03:17,280
Familiarize yourself, take like five, 10 minutes to familiarize yourself with the genres and then

57
00:03:17,280 --> 00:03:18,120
you don't have to do it anymore.

58
00:03:18,150 --> 00:03:22,500
You kind of get a good idea of where the majority of your videos, if you're making videos for the same

59
00:03:22,500 --> 00:03:25,560
rough niche or same rough subject, are going to fall.

60
00:03:26,460 --> 00:03:28,710
And then you want to add the language.

61
00:03:28,740 --> 00:03:29,730
So mine is English.

62
00:03:29,730 --> 00:03:32,010
United States choose a release date.

63
00:03:32,100 --> 00:03:33,420
I don't think this really matters too much.

64
00:03:33,420 --> 00:03:36,240
At least I haven't really come across the fact that it's mattering.

65
00:03:36,870 --> 00:03:39,000
Then you're gonna select your rating.

66
00:03:39,030 --> 00:03:42,130
I always go Motion Picture Association and then you rate it.

67
00:03:42,540 --> 00:03:43,660
We're all familiar with these ratings.

68
00:03:43,690 --> 00:03:45,850
PG 13 R NC 13.

69
00:03:46,140 --> 00:03:47,130
This is rated G.

70
00:03:47,850 --> 00:03:52,920
And then boom, all the aspect ratio is as incorrect aspect ratio.

71
00:03:52,950 --> 00:03:53,640
But shouldn't.

72
00:03:54,180 --> 00:03:55,110
And then we're going to save it.

73
00:03:57,910 --> 00:04:02,280
And it looks like this has an incorrect aspect ratio, although it shouldn't.

74
00:04:02,300 --> 00:04:04,790
So maybe I actually I think I did, actually.

75
00:04:04,820 --> 00:04:08,720
I think I actually took this from the wrong one.

76
00:04:08,730 --> 00:04:11,360
So I took this right here as an Instagram one.

77
00:04:11,360 --> 00:04:12,320
That was wrong.

78
00:04:12,350 --> 00:04:14,600
I believe that this is the one I should have taken.

79
00:04:15,320 --> 00:04:17,120
So I'm going to reformat this really fast.

80
00:04:17,420 --> 00:04:20,470
We'll jump to that right now with the updated version.

81
00:04:21,610 --> 00:04:23,260
All right, so now I just re-form out of that.

82
00:04:23,680 --> 00:04:27,220
What I basically did is I create a lot of b of images and a lot of content.

83
00:04:27,250 --> 00:04:31,000
So I actually took the Instagram side by accident because so showing you guys and I was run through

84
00:04:31,000 --> 00:04:36,940
a fast someone to switch that image right now to make it compatibles videos, Mark Sellar types.

85
00:04:37,180 --> 00:04:38,480
And that should be the right size.

86
00:04:38,530 --> 00:04:40,120
Let's save it and move on now.

87
00:04:40,480 --> 00:04:41,020
All right.

88
00:04:41,050 --> 00:04:42,630
And now my changes were saved.

89
00:04:42,670 --> 00:04:47,080
So cataloging, listing and all the thumbnails and all that stuff is all done.

90
00:04:47,110 --> 00:04:48,700
So now we need three more things, right.

91
00:04:49,330 --> 00:04:49,920
Cast and crew.

92
00:04:49,930 --> 00:04:51,010
This is always the fun part.

93
00:04:51,070 --> 00:04:52,130
I just put myself in.

94
00:04:52,150 --> 00:04:56,860
You can obviously make that, you know, based on whatever your standalone piece content is that there's

95
00:04:56,860 --> 00:05:00,940
two of you, if there's three of you or whatever, if it's just you feel free to do whatever you want.

96
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:07,240
I always put myself in as the producer I was put myself in as the cast member, and then I click Save.

97
00:05:08,290 --> 00:05:08,540
Boom.

98
00:05:08,590 --> 00:05:09,490
Now we're done with that.

99
00:05:09,520 --> 00:05:10,780
And I'm going to good availability.

100
00:05:10,900 --> 00:05:14,830
I always and this is something to keep in mind, having a lecture on this here in a second.

101
00:05:15,160 --> 00:05:16,480
I always click prime.

102
00:05:16,930 --> 00:05:18,670
There's a number of different ways they do it.

103
00:05:18,670 --> 00:05:22,360
You can you can put it on prime, which basically gives it free to all prime members.

104
00:05:22,570 --> 00:05:28,690
And then you'll get paid, like we talked about before, based on, you know, the different videos.

105
00:05:28,810 --> 00:05:29,230
Ah, sorry.

106
00:05:29,260 --> 00:05:30,820
The different views that you get.

107
00:05:31,030 --> 00:05:32,770
Kinda like ad revenue on YouTube.

108
00:05:32,950 --> 00:05:34,540
You can also listed for rent.

109
00:05:34,580 --> 00:05:35,890
You can also list it for sale.

110
00:05:36,250 --> 00:05:37,750
I personally like the prime aspect.

111
00:05:37,780 --> 00:05:39,040
I think that works the best.

112
00:05:39,100 --> 00:05:44,080
And I don't think many people, unless you have like a really high quality video where a really high

113
00:05:44,080 --> 00:05:47,980
quality movie are gonna want to pay for your content on Amazon video direct.

114
00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:49,150
That's the wrong approach.

115
00:05:49,390 --> 00:05:53,560
It's not the right marketplace for that, because a lot of people that were watching Amazon Prime are

116
00:05:53,560 --> 00:05:58,450
doing so because they have the Amazon Prime subscription and they want to see just kind of like Netflix.

117
00:05:58,450 --> 00:05:58,750
Right.

118
00:05:59,020 --> 00:06:00,940
What's available to them for free.

119
00:06:01,150 --> 00:06:02,090
And they'll watch that.

120
00:06:02,110 --> 00:06:08,860
So you get the least kind of barritt, the least friction, essentially by giving it to prime members

121
00:06:08,860 --> 00:06:14,560
for free and collecting ad revenue or potential ad revenue essentially on, you know, on the Amazon

122
00:06:14,560 --> 00:06:17,410
video direct based on your views than you would trying to get to buy it.

123
00:06:17,440 --> 00:06:17,680
Right.

124
00:06:17,920 --> 00:06:21,820
If you have a Netflix subscription, for example, are you going to buy something on Netflix?

125
00:06:21,910 --> 00:06:26,530
Chances are no, because everything on Netflix is free because you pay for the Netflix subscription.

126
00:06:26,740 --> 00:06:31,510
So if there are a couple of movies on Netflix that you have to actually pay your twelve dollars a month

127
00:06:31,510 --> 00:06:34,180
or thirteen dollars or fifteen dollars a month or whatever it is for you.

128
00:06:34,840 --> 00:06:35,200
And then you.

129
00:06:35,530 --> 00:06:39,040
Oh by the way, like ninety nine point nine percent of the stuff on Netflix is free.

130
00:06:39,040 --> 00:06:44,020
But just five of these movies, random five movies, you have to pay an extra five dollars more or an

131
00:06:44,020 --> 00:06:45,040
extra ten dollars more.

132
00:06:45,370 --> 00:06:49,660
They probably won't do that well because the majority people aren't going to want to pay for it because

133
00:06:49,660 --> 00:06:50,830
they already pay for the service.

134
00:06:51,190 --> 00:06:53,770
Same overall concept on Amazon video direct.

135
00:06:54,160 --> 00:06:56,770
That's why I recommend sticking with the prime version.

136
00:06:57,070 --> 00:07:00,430
So I'm a hit prime both on the United States, United Kingdom for me.

137
00:07:00,880 --> 00:07:03,400
Now, the fun parts were going to upload the files here.

138
00:07:03,640 --> 00:07:08,140
This is where the captions that SRT file comes into play in the mezzanine file, which is basically

139
00:07:08,140 --> 00:07:08,540
your video.

140
00:07:08,600 --> 00:07:11,830
So I'm gonna upload the video here we go into videos.

141
00:07:11,860 --> 00:07:14,380
It is right here past Mark Sellar tips.

142
00:07:14,860 --> 00:07:16,540
And then we're gonna select the language.

143
00:07:16,870 --> 00:07:19,120
So it's English United States.

144
00:07:19,420 --> 00:07:23,810
Now, the captions, we downloaded that data Sarti straight from YouTube or members of captions dot

145
00:07:23,810 --> 00:07:24,180
Ezzati.

146
00:07:24,410 --> 00:07:25,210
That there it is.

147
00:07:25,500 --> 00:07:27,310
Ninety select the frame rate in the language.

148
00:07:27,340 --> 00:07:31,090
So it's always twenty nine point nine seven FPL is your frame rate.

149
00:07:31,420 --> 00:07:33,490
And then obviously the language is English.

150
00:07:33,730 --> 00:07:38,590
And then if you hit save, you'll see it start the process and upload and I will see you as soon as

151
00:07:38,590 --> 00:07:38,950
this is done.

152
00:07:38,950 --> 00:07:41,590
Uploading to hit that publish button.

153
00:07:41,770 --> 00:07:42,940
And there we go.

154
00:07:42,990 --> 00:07:48,820
So now we got a checkmark on all of them, catalog listing, crew, cast and crew, video assets availability.

155
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:49,780
And we're ready to go.

156
00:07:49,870 --> 00:07:52,360
Now, we just hit, publish and publish.

157
00:07:52,630 --> 00:07:55,330
And then we'll go back into our videos.

158
00:07:55,810 --> 00:08:00,670
And then eventually in two to four days, I believe it is, they'll either come back.

159
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:04,410
And if I refresh this, you'll see it gets this little green thing right here, which is publishing.

160
00:08:04,420 --> 00:08:07,240
It's not accepted yet in two to four days once it's accepted.

161
00:08:07,270 --> 00:08:11,950
Assuming that you did everything that I basically told you to do and it was formatted right and you

162
00:08:11,950 --> 00:08:17,320
did the the captions, you did the thumbnails correctly, you clipped everything out that was allowed

163
00:08:17,320 --> 00:08:17,920
to be in there.

164
00:08:17,920 --> 00:08:23,190
So that's like your other your other your other competitors, like your your any anywhere else.

165
00:08:23,200 --> 00:08:24,880
It's not Amazon video, direct content.
