Delivering the video to us

If you have recorded your episode to the cloud (this requires that you have a paid version of Zoom), go to your recordings and download it to your local computer.  If you have recorded it to your computer (as you have to with the free version), it will be on your local computer.

Then email the video file to us at shows@thinktechhawaii.com.  If you have trouble emailing the file to us, contact us at shows@thinktechhawaii.com.

What we do then

When we get the video of your show, we will edit it to take out gaps and gaffs, improve video and audio if necessary, add titles, bumpers and the ThinkTech bug.  We will then upload it to YouTube and the Playlist for your series, send you the link so you can share it with your family, friends and followers, post it on our social media, and schedule it for airing on our YouTube channel and website.  We may also submit it for broadcast on Olelo.
