Digital Storytelling & Multimedia Project Resources
WeVideo Account Creation
To create a personal WeVideo account that will be connected to NEO’s administrative account, click on this link to sign up. If you already have a personal account, enter 69CGL64KQTBQ on your account page to link to NEO’s account. NEO’s account provides free storage for each user to create several videos without the WeVideo watermark. It also allows faculty to find students’ published videos. All faculty who have administrative access, will also have access to all student created videos, but no one will have access to videos in your personal account until you publish them. For more help setting up an account, visit https://wevideo.desk.com/customer/portal/articles/829119-how-do-i-setup-a-wevideo-account-.
