What can you do on EngageMedia
- Upload your video work - we recommend you don't upload more than 150mb for the moment.
- Download video - search our growing archive of videos, or browse by Genre, Topic or Country.
- Watch videos in the browser window.
- Assign a Creative Commons license to your video.
- Vodcasting - generate a video feed which you can then import into a client such as iTunes or Democracy Player which will automatically download new videos to your computer when a new video is updated. You could subscribe to the Latest Videos feed or to a specific Member's video feed, or pick your feed by Topic or Country.
