From your video library page, click Record new video.

  1. Click Allow and check Remember to give Spark Hire access to your webcam and microphone for the video. Then, click Close.
  2. Make sure you have the proper webcam and microphone selected in the settings window that appears.
  3. When you're ready to record your video, click the red record button on the top right hand side of the recorder.
  4. A 3-2-1 countdown will appear and the recording will begin when you see GO.
  5. Click the Stop button to stop recording and the video will automatically play back.
  6. To re-record, click Retake Video and the recorder will reappear. If you're satisfied with your video, click Submit.

Your video will be saved and then you'll be prompted to modify its properties:

  • Video Name: The video name should be something that makes the video instantly recognizable when viewing it in a list of other videos. When viewing your video library, the video name is what will identify it.
  • Video Description: The video description is only visible when you’re editing the video. It’s meant to serve as an internal note to remind you about the content of the video.
  • Video Type: Classifying a video as a specific type makes it easy to categorize videos and pull them up using filters in the video library or when selecting a video as part of a feature (e.g. adding an intro video from your video library.)

When you're satisfied with your video properties, click Finish.
