You can use any technology to create your video (digital camera, smartphone, tablet, webcam, etc.).

It should be around 60 seconds long and contain your views, ideas and experiences on life online.

Make sure your video does not give out any personal information like your full name, location or contact details.

Your video must respect UK copyright law – only use images, video and audio/music if you have permission to use it.

We want to hear your honest views but your video should not be considered defamatory against a person or organisation.

Your video cannot advertise or promote a product, service or online space (e.g. YouTube channel, Instagram account, etc.).

No! We want you to feel completely comfortable uploading your video to the video wall. You can be as creative as you like in making your video – you could use cartoons, still pictures, a slideshow of pictures, or just a blank screen.

In order to submit a video to the video wall, a nominated adult must review the submission. When submitting a video, a young person will need to provide the name, organisation (if relevant) and email address of the adult who will approve their video submission.

Until a submission has been reviewed and fully approved, it will sit in a private holding area – it will not go live until all checks are complete.

After a video has been submitted, the nominated adult will receive an email. This allows them to view the submitted video, and either approve or decline the submission.

If approved, the UKSIC team will carry out further checks to ensure the video meets all requirements, and then will make the video live.

If you change your mind, we are happy to remove your video. To remove a video, email sidfilms@swgfl.org.uk with a reason and a screenshot (to help us find your video!).

UK Safer Internet Centre reserves the right to remove videos from the video wall at any time, for any reason.

An adult has to review your video before it can go live on the video wall. If they have have declined your submission, they may have provided a reason in the email you received.

Some reasons for declining a video could include: inappropriate content, revealing sensitive personal information, a safeguarding concern, or a concern about your well-being.

There may be other reasons why the adult has decided your video is not suitable. If you feel your video should be accepted, discuss it with the adult – if you agreed, you could edit your video and submit it again.
