Any advice on Vimeo vs. Youtube unlisted link for secure and free/inexpensive streaming of a recorded (and edited) production?
We are not required to use any specific platform, but it is required (by Dramatic Publishing, and by our district IT policy) to be secure. We also need to count views.
We are not charging for tickets, thus I would like to use a free (or almost free) platform.
I'd love to hear pros and cons of Vimeo and Youtube unlisted. Or of any other free options that are secure, if there are any. Our show is a little on the long side (over an hour), so that be relevant to anything that has a time limit/data limit/size limit.
Thanks in advance for any advice and info!
(For those of you who followed my agonized posts in August ... here's the update: this year I am a fifth grade 'learning coach' - teaching a small class of fifth graders, fully in person, with lots of support from the 'real' fifth grade teachers. It's been quite a year. There are zero drama classes, but I couldn't let it be a year with no theatre (the poor 8th graders would have been totally gutted, as would I have been on their behalf). So, we've done a remote show. Getting approval to do it felt like a huge victory! But I still am very excited to be 100% drama teacher again next year.)
