Collect video footage from your team in one place
Create an upload request link and send it to your crew, contributors, or field reporters. They upload their footage directly to your WeTransfer workspace, and you get an email notification as each clip arrives. One link handles everyone, with no shared drives or inbox threads to manage.
Request once, receive from anyone
News and media teams work against the clock, and waiting on footage from multiple contributors should not slow down production. WeTransfer upload requests give you a dedicated link to drop into a team message, a rundown, or a contributor brief, so everyone sends their clips to the same place. Video files arrive in their original quality, with no compression or re-encoding, meaning your 4K rushes, broadcast-grade MOV files, and raw camera footage come through exactly as shot. You can preview supported video files right in your browser before downloading anything, making it easy to assess what has come in without pulling every file to your machine. Both you and the people sending footage need a free WeTransfer account, and you can have a request ready to share in minutes.
