Don’t forget your slides and video!

These are your last few days to submit your project. Update or Finish your Submission so you don’t forget.  

Your slides and video are a major component of your submission. Here are some helpful tips for you to plan, create, and publish a winning video. 

Get organized. Copy the UiPath Innovation RPA Hackathon Presentation and start editing it for your project, making sure to not include more than 10 slides. Write out a script of what you need to say and demonstrate in your video and then rehearse it before recording. A good script should: 

• Be 10 minutes or less.
• Includes your business use case (approximately 7 minutes)
• Includes your demo or video of your solution (approximately 3 minutes)
• Explain which category you are in (Student RPA Innovation or Professional Enterprise Integration)
  
  
  

Start Recording. The great thing about pre-recorded demo videos is that it doesn’t have to be perfect in one shot. Here are some suggestions for recording: 

• Use an emulator or create a screencast with audio narration. 
• There are many programs that might help you record a presentation such as recording a Zoom meeting presentation. 
• Get a friend or family member to watch your video to collect feedback. 
  
  
  

Upload. Don't wait until the last minute to upload your video and slides to the correct platform. Uploading could take anywhere from a few minutes to several hours. 

• Upload your video to YouTube, Vimeo, or Facebook Video. 
• Save your Slides as a PDF to upload it on your Devpost submission
• Make sure your video is public and playback is allowed so it can be played on other sites.  
• Add the link to your video to your project submission. 
  
  

We can’t wait to see your project and how you showcase it in your video.  

Lights, Camera, Action!
