Submit a Story

We’re so excited that you want to Share Your Plate with us! Your story can take any form, from a simple narrative, to a recipe, to an audio recording or a short video where you talk about your dish and what it means to you. Show yourself cooking the dish, or just eating it, whatever strikes your fancy!
Until we get a fancy-schmancy system for submitting via a webform, you can simply send us an email: submit@shareyourplate.org


To submit video, please record with the following settings:

  • 720p High Def resolution is ideal, but not necessary.
  • Prefer 16:9 widescreen aspect ratio but 4:3 is okay.
  • Keep your video short and tell the essence of why your dish is important to you. Show your dish!
  • Please mention your name, and that the video is for Share Your Plate.
  • Please give us your name, the URL you want to be linked for your video, and your twitter handle.
  • Upload to blip.tv, Vimeo, YouTube, etc. if you’re submitting a video you edited yoursel, and send us the link.

(We will soon have graphics and an animated opening and closing sequence you can add on yourself).

If you’d like us to edit your video, please contact us for FTP instructions. We will do minor edits and add on an opener and closer and add your name and URL in text on the screen. We are a volunteer organization and can’t do heavy edits on submitted video.

Thanks for sharing!
