Hi, Just received an email saying that my template was not approved cause template submissions must now include a video demonstrating their use. It’s probably a good way to help users of course but I checked the template store guideline and there is nothing about adding a video and what kind of video. Is the video has to explain how the app is working to final users or to makers? It’s not exactly the same I believe. Moreover is there some rules we have to follow to create this video? Duration, language/no sound… Is anybody can enlighted me? Tks! ---

I’ve been keeping mine right around 2 minutes. I’ve just been crafting a video walkthrough of the app…nothing too specific on how to manipulate the app, just a promo of the apps functionality. Here are some that I’ve done recently: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/4/4de276d719ffd210fcb85c4f119ee1f592feb0d3.jpeg "Glide: Meet with Me Promo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RHOpFMLpTuI) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/f/fb52754f7fe70063979cd78122dedf2f1be63121.jpeg "Glide: My Card Promo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Amq9UcxpF-A) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/3/363084d163948540c52a2e3249486cf37ea23ccd.jpeg "Glide Messenger Promo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sf8GxagEOA8) [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/1/17d8f2d1913c57a383c9a68bcd2a4fbd8d246feb.jpeg "Glide: Our Chores App") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZa77x8C5IU) ---

Here’s a REALLY rough demo on how I create mine: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/c/ce4fbe56b7385037d9326da0cb098ed61fb6762b.jpeg "Glide: How I make my promo videos") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1y9LZo5j6uo) ---

So now you’re a video editing ninja too! Thank you for sharing this, @Robert_Petitto. I have used Quicktime on my Mac to record videos earlier. It doesn’t have the advanced functionalities to crop and frame, etc. but it’s a decent start I believe. Will check this tool too. ---

Ha…ya…I’ve been doing screencasts with Screenflow for almost a decade now. I can knock out a 2-minute promo in about 30minutes (including upload time). For instance, I began one at 10:02 EST today and had it uploaded by 10:40EST or so: [![](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex002/uploads/glideapps/original/2X/5/5bfa44a847244efbce79af6a8ac8f23f62496f4a.jpeg "Glide: Our Neighborhood Promo") ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vWR6ziN4Tsc) ---

This is sooooo well done, Robert! One quick question: do you prepare a script beforehand? ---

If you happen to work on Windows and want to show what happens on the phone then Apple TV/chrome cast and the program Reflector 3 is great. It actually works quite well I have gone all in with camtasia for video recording. Not cheap at all 🙁 But I hope I benefit for it - also work wise 🕶 ---

WOW! I was wondering about the great quality of your videos and the speed at which you create those. This is super helpful. Thanks!! ---

I don’t…I probably should. If I mess up, I just repeat myself and crop out the bad versions. ---

Sometimes when I’m the middle of saying something and I need to stop and repeat, I’ll often snap or clap by the mic, pause and then continue. When I go back to edit my video, I can look for the spikes in the wave visualization in the audio track to know when errors occured. ---

Keep’em coming, Robert! Another genius tip. I should’ve spent some more time with my camera shooting and editing videos for fun. ---

I can speak it (I used to teach HS Spanish), but it wouldn’t sound like a native speaker. If you Gave me a script, then I might be able to. ---
