Videos

Like images, videos can also be interspersed throughout the other content on your page to help communicate and add visual interest to a basic page. Adding a caption to a video, as shown below, is optional and should be kept relatively short. If more detail is needed it should be included in paragraphs that surround the video rather than within the caption. 

NOTE: You cannot add a video file directly to your website. It must be uploaded to YouTube, Vimeo, or Kaltura first. You will use the URL for that uploaded video to add it to your site.

What is a Video

An embedded or local video on your site.
