You need to provide a link to the Yandex Music track the videoshot should be attached to (you can use the UPC if it's a single, or the ISRC), and the video — either as an attachment or a link to any cloud storage.
You can send several videoshots in one email if it's more convenient for you to collect them throughout the day and send them as a batch.
Technical requirements for videoshots:
Vertical orientation (if the video is horizontal, it will be cropped to center: 405×720 px)
Size: 720p (404×720)
Format: mp4, mov, H.264
Duration: up to 15 seconds (can be shorter or slightly longer)
What can be used as a videoshot:
Custom-shot video made specifically for Yandex Music
A cut from the official music video
Behind-the-scenes footage
Motion design
Recommendations:
Avoid lip-sync (singing) footage — the video will be looped, and mismatched audio may look distracting.
Avoid overly short or rapid cuts — quick image jumps can appear harsh.
Keep the main visual elements centered to avoid cropping.
Try to include a short, self-contained narrative in the videoshot.
What videoshots must not contain:
Offensive or prohibited content
Cigarettes, alcohol, blood/violence
Text unrelated to the track
Brand advertising
Album or concert promotion
Watermarks or badges from third-party platforms
If the video does not meet Yandex Music’s minimum quality standards or recommendations, we reserve the right to decline the upload.
