Sharing Video
Video is a powerful tool for telling the Missouri State story. We strive to produce
high quality video that authentically reflects the energy, engagement and diversity
of the Missouri State experience. Our videos should reflect and reinforce our brand
by spotlighting our people, our campus and how #CitizenBears are making their Missouri
Statement.
Brand strength relies on consistency, so we have complied these assets and guidelines
for you to use in your videos.
General videos
University units are encouraged to share and embed these videos as part of their communication
strategy.
Video bumpers
Intro bumper (this asset should only be used on long-form video projects or used as
part of a community presentation)
Video watermark
Music
Music to use in your videos is not provided by the university. The university has
music rights through campus BMI and ASCAP licenses. Under those licenses, recordings
of musical performances can be posted to university owned and operated websites. However,
the ASCAP and BMI campus licenses do not authorize posting music recordings to commercial
or other third-party sites such as YouTube, iTunes U, Facebook, etc.

Video hosting options
YouTube
Missouri State uses YouTube to host and stream videos. Visit Missouri State’s YouTube channel to see available video content. This services is managed by the office of visual media.
For content produced outside of the Division of Marketing and Communications, we encourage
university units to create individual YouTube channels. This specific content can
be housed and linked to the respective unit’s website.
Web server and content management system (Omni CMS)
Notably small files can be uploaded to your web server or uploaded to an appropriate
folder under your site in our current content management system (Omni CMS).
However, for most video files, you will want to use YouTube or another video hosting
service.
