  1. During the event itself

Making a 'Hello Video'

We love to see all of your faces! Make us a 'Hello Video' at your site so we can collect them together to show everyone around the world!

You can help promote the Global Game Jam for next year! We are looking for a short video from your site, showing a greeting from your locations jammers, ie. “Hello from Global Game Jam Lima!”

  • Hello video from 2023:

Here’s some advice on how to create a video that is easy for our video editor to process:

  • Don’t add your own music to your video (it prevents us from adding music to unify all GGJ videos)

  • Don’t add / hardcode subtitles

  • Name your video file as GGJyy_location_country. For example: GGJ25_GGJVancouver_Canada.mov

  • Please speak in your local language

  • Upload your Hello Video here:
