What's the Broadcast feature?Need to communicate with everyone you've invited, or perhaps only with the one's who have RSVP'd? Use the Broadcast feature to send a message to everyone on the list or select the specific list of people you wish to email! To access it click on Invitation and then on Invite List, finally click on Broadcast. From here you can select the list you'd like to broadcast to, write your message and click Send Message and we'll email them automatically.
-
How many people can I invite?You can invite as many people as you'd like. There is no maximum amount of people you can invite — the more the merrier! A few things to note We recommend that contributors keep their videos within 30-120 seconds. Longer is fine but if you have many contributors the video could get quite long! Contributors can also submit photos but they are limited to 10 media items per upload session.
-
Are the videos and photos private?Yes, only you (the video creator) can see and edit submitted media from your Event Page when logged into your VidDay account. Please note: The recipient photo, and invite message are public-facing — they are used in invites and on the submission page that is seen by participants. If you need further assistance, please contact a Customer Care Specialist using our live chat in the bottom right corner.

Can I contact my participants?So you've sent out a bunch of invitations using the invite list feature or you've simply sent your participants the link manually and they've rsvp'd. That's great, now you can easily communicate with everyone that appears on your invite list. Broadcast Message You can use the Broadcast Message feature to quickly and effectively message everyone on your list. You can also select specific lists to message select participants. Say you only want to message the one's that have RSVP'd, click on the RSVP'd button and your message will only be sent to them.

How do I see submissions?As the video creator, you’ll be able to see and review submissions from contributors on your Event Page. You’ll also receive an email notification every time there is a new submission. If you do not want to receive these email notifications, you can change this in your Account Settings. From the menu in the top right corner, navigate to My Account and look under the Notifications tab. From there, deselect Activity on Your VidDay, and you will no longer receive emails notifying you of submissions.
-
Can I edit the deadline?Yes, you can edit the deadline via the Invite People page located on the left of your event page. From the event page click on the Invite People button, you'll see a Contribute before field at the bottom. Note: Contributors can continue to submit their videos and photos after the submission deadline has passed. The Event Page is only closed to submissions once you hit the Finalize button. If you need further assistance, please contact a Customer Care Specialist using our live chat, found in the bottom right corner of the VidDay app or website.
