Publishing a video on YouTube is a bit different than publishing via other applications. In most cases uploading your video is your final step, but for YouTube it is instead the first step. Since you don't need to worry about outputting your video into various formats when using YouTube to edit, this portion of the guide will focus on sharing and discoverability.
YouTube has three different privacy levels for videos:
Feature | Unlisted | Private | Public |
---|---|---|---|
