Embedding Video Code on to an HTML Page

This video tutorial covers how to embed video code on to an HTML page. It requires that you have some knowledge of Photoshop, Dreaweaver and HTML. If you don't, no worries, I cover it in the video.

These days, in order to save space and money, people elect to upload their videos / demo reels on to a site like Youtube or Vimeo, which is a process I highly recommend. Placing video embed code on to a blog or webpage is quite easy, its a simple copy and paste procedure, but sometimes, people want to have pictures or a design around it. This video tutorial shows you a quick way to do so.

Doing so enables you to:

• Watch the clip full screen.
• Saves server and hard drive space.
• Can be viewed from any computer.
• The sound quality is nice.

In this example, we copied the embed code associated with a Youtube video and pasted it on to a blog post. The process is quite easy and I also recommend that as you post a video or picture, that you also write a small sentence or two about lending your opinion about the piece. Having both and image and text work together to make an engaging presentation.

Here are some images to help you with the process...
