Video Requirements Per Platform:
Youtube Shorts Video Requirements:
For the videos to appear in the shorts tab on Youtube, all of these must be done:
- Ratio of 9:16 (iOS and Android Phone Screen Size)
- Video title needs to include the tag #shorts
- Description of the video needs to include the tag #shorts
- Video needs to be between 3-60 seconds
If you don't do all three, the video can still be posted to youtube but won't be considered a 'shorts' video by Youtube.
You can still have it up as a series of short-form content, but ideally, they would be appropriately formatted to help with discovery.
