This is the simplest and most convenient way to send your video. The use of this method requires that you download the free Pando software package.

Pando is an easy to use free software program that allows users to e-mail up to a 1 gigabyte file.

Send Your Video via FTP

FTP stands for File Transfer Protocol. It allows users to send large files over the Internet. Video files are quite large, especially when you are talking about a 30 to 45 minute game film.

This method of sending your film is a bit more complicated to use than by sending it via e-mail. In addition, It requires that you have a high speed broadband Internet connection and FTP client software. If you have access to high speed Internet service, you can download free FTP client software @. http://filezilla-project.org .

If you choose to send your video via FTP, we will send our FTP address and further instructions on how to proceed upon confirmation of your order and your selection of this service.
