1. Film your video on a smart phone. 
  2. If possible, don’t film in “selfie” mode. Ask a parent or sibling to turn the phone horizontal and film you while you talk to the camera.
  3. Make sure there isn’t a window, the sun, or another bright light behind you. We want to be able to see your face!
  4. Keep it short. Each video should be under 60 seconds.
  5. If your video is larger than 50MB then post it on YouTube or Instagram and share the link with us via the submission form. We will also see your video if you post it publicly on social media and use the hashtag #TalktoRangerRick.
  6. You can also share your video by posting it to YouTube and setting its visibility to “Unlisted”. Then share the link with us via the submission form.
  7. Be yourself! We aren’t looking for perfection. We’re looking for funny, surprising, and interesting stories, questions, and jokes about wildlife.
