Step-by-step instructions – deleting a YouTube video in 2019

I needed to delete a YouTube video the other week and struggled to figure it out on my own. After researching the steps, I was inspired to create a screencast to help anyone else who might be finding themselves in the same position that I was in.

To create my screencast, I used QuickTime Player on an Apple Mac. I found that having a finalized script takes a load off the recording process, since it’s inevitable to avoid technical hitches when making a screencast. For instance, living in the Philippines posed the challenge of having to deal with an unreliable internet connection. It took me a few takes before I was happy with the screencast as a particular page took a significantly longer time to load and I was not about to allow there to be an awkward lull in my recording.

Overall, I had a great experience creating my first screencast. This tool/method can come in handy at work when you need to share online tips and tricks with your colleagues or as an instructional video for students.
