How do I send a video at a specific time?

How often do you share your videos on YouTube? It's very common for musicians, from teachers to students or choral conductors to opera singers, to share videos of advice or concerts.

Sometimes you want to send your video at a specific time because you're not interested in the first 45 minutes!

But how?

It's so easy! To start your video at a specific time, all you have to do is modify its URL and indicate the exact minute you want it to begin.

Let's do it together:

A music teacher recently asked me for advice on teaching music at a distance. The problem wasn't how to organize a course or choose a medium, but how to create interactive exercises during a videoconference course. So I sent him the link to the replay of the session we did with Hugh Sung "Teaching & Collaborating with Digital Scores".

The video is divided into several parts. So as not to have to watch the whole thing, I've added an appropriate time indicator at the end of the URL. This gives the following link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF6bIs6M20c&t=16m12s.

The m represents the minutes and the s the seconds of the passage you wish to share.

You can send your link to anyone you like, it will always arrive at 16 minutes and 12 seconds.

It's up to you!
