In the last video, you saw how easy it was to upload your videos to Amazon S3 and use their cheap but quality service.

In today’s video, you will see how to play the Amazon S3 video on your website.

The web video we created is a flash video with the extension MP4 or FLV. These require a flash player to play the videos on your website.

One of the flash players which is compatible with Amazon S3 and is FREE, is JW FLV Player which can be downloaded at http://www.longtailvideo.com

In today’s video, you will learn how to configure JW Player so that it accesses your web videos on Amazon S3 and play it on your website or blog.

Here’s part 2 of the video series “How To Create And Host Your Own Web Videos”.

In this video, you’ll learn how to use CamStudio (which is free) to record the movements on your screen.

As I mentioned, you will need a USB microphone to get decent sound quality. If the video is average, the visitors may stick around. If the audio is poor, they’ll leave.

So get a USB microphone if you can.

A little disclaimer here. I’m not an expert on making videos. I just know how to do them. If I want to create professional looking ones, I’ll get it outsourced.

I just thought it would be useful to share the information of what I know for those of you who like to do everything by yourself. But with practice, I think it’s possible to create decent web videos and promote your websites.

Enjoy.
