Video policy: Contest speech videos are intended as a tool for speakers to see their own performances and think about how they can improve. Even though these are on YouTube, they are published as “unlisted” by default, meaning they won’t show up in search results. Don’t forward these links or post them on Facebook or in any other forum without the speaker’s permission.
If you give permission, we would like to be able to share these more widely, as a demonstration of the skills we use in Toastmasters. I would also encourage you to post the videos of the speakers who represented your club on your club website, so people who visit the website get a better idea of the talent that exists in your club. First place winners in the International Speech Contest often prefer not to have their speech published while they are still moving up to a higher level of competition, but I would encourage them to share the video later.
