Hi,

I have to do a power-point presentation as part of an upcoming job interview, and I would really like to include a couple of short video clips off the internet.

I have video editing software on my PC, but dont know how to download video off Youtube,( or anywhere off the internet).

Any guidance much appreciated.

I can't help with the thing you actually need help with....

But if you need a hand deciding how your headings should fly/checkerboard/spiral onto the screen, I'm happy to lend an opinion

Fucking love a PowerPoint presentation

Downloading off of YouTube will require an extension on you browser to do so.

Though I believe you can (assuming you have an internet connection when giving the presentation) create a URL link Video in PowerPoint.

You can try a right click on a video to see if you get an option to download video. Or you might need an extension for your web browser to download a video. I am presuming you are using laptop/PC. Which web browser are you using?

Do a google search for YouTube downloaded and it will find a few that will either save it as mp3 (music) files or video files.

Don’t download a program, use an online one where you paste the YouTube address into their web page and it gives you a download link

Unfortunately not, presentation has to be emailed in advance for virus and other security checks.live internet access during presentation " ist forbotten".

You can embed videos into PPT presentations (I'll have to open PPT to remind myself how to do it) but even an embedded vid will only work if a) it can reach whichever bit of the Internet is hosting it, or b) is saved in a location where the embed can find it. So, if you email it, its likely not to work because the downloaded original is on your computer.

PM me for a link to a Chrome extension to download videos (can't PM you due to filters). Not sure if you can get Youtube videos downloaded as they seem to have hardened their security in that respect.

The note about embedding is correct, save for 1 little detail, being that modern versions of PowerPoint allow you to search for YouTube video to embed from within PowerPoint.

From the insert option, click video, then online video.

This will prompt you to either search YouTube for a video, or add an embed link.

If you have the video open on YouTube already, click share, then embed and it'll give you the link to copy.

Re:downloading off You, there are unorthodox ways of doing that fairly easily. Whether you should for a job interview or not is another question. I interview education staff and would have a dim view of copyright infringement.

Copyrighted content/material is useable under the fair use agreement in situations such as education, research, scholarships, critique, parody and reporting.

I'd argue that using it to assist you in a job interview is fair use, despite it not coming directly under any of the situations I listed above.

If it were used in a ppt for a job you currently have, then that isn't fair use, as you are using the copyrighted material to help you earn money, but in a job interview, is definitely argue it's fair use, as no monetary gain is being made.

The only real way of knowing what is fair use is to go through courts though, as arguements can be made on either side tbh.

You tubes terms of use expressly forbids downloading videos from the platform. You can stream them for use in these situations, yes, but not download, store or edit them outside YouTube.

Then I guess the THOUSANDS of YouTube compilation channels are in breach of the YouTube ToS then?

It's nowhere near as cut and dry as you are making it out to be.

The fair use rule for YouTube allows content creators on YouTube to take and edit others content without permission, as long as they use only a portion, and the content you create using it isn't centred on it.

(As written by Google on their FaQ about fair use with YouTube)

If you'd noticed also, I included a method of embedding YouTube videos directly into ppt from within ppt itself, as it gives you a YouTube search bar to use to find the video you want to embed.

And all of that is besides the fact that, it's being used in a ppt... Not being uploaded to the internet, not being used or submitted as their own work, and will probably never see the light of day outside of the interview they are creating the ppt for.

OP, you are well within your rights to take and edit clips from YouTube, as long as you follow the guidelines laid out by Google themselves.

(Which are as I stated above)

Also, in the spirit of informing people, the rules/laws/guidelines around fair use, vary from country to country, and as long as it is clear that the content is not yours, you don't use the entire piece, and the work isn't based around it, regardless of if you obtained permission or not, there is nothing creators from other countries can do about it.

Just to clarify, I am a music performance and production major, and have had many conversations about copyright and fair use regarding youtube, and have actually had copyright claims that I submitted rejected under the fair use act, so...

Right, so, I'm sitting here with YouTube premium, which actually straight up gives me access to download videos from YouTube to watch offline.

So I guess the website you copy pasted that from doesn't know what it's talking about?
