Submit your video or story

We publish videos and stories made by international students in China — real campus life, classes, dorms, food, travel and study experience. If you are studying in China now (or finished recently), send us your material and we will publish it with your name on it.

We publish material filmed by students and ordinary travellers, not agency or university promotional videos. Two kinds of content: international students' own experience in China, and Chinese universities, campuses, cities and infrastructure as people really film them.

What we publish

Campus life videos

Dorm tour, canteen, library, sports, club activities, an ordinary week on campus. Phone footage is fine — we are not looking for a film crew.

Study and exam experience

HSK preparation, how classes are really taught, what surprised you, how exams and coursework actually work.

University and campus footage

A walk through your university: teaching buildings, library, laboratories, sports grounds, the street outside the gate.

Cities, scenery and infrastructure

High-speed rail, metro, bridges, night markets, parks, city skylines — what you filmed yourself while travelling in China.

Photos and written stories

No video? A photo set or a written piece works too — we will publish it with your name.

Before you send

It has to be yours to send

Send what you filmed or wrote yourself, or footage you have the photographer's permission to send. No other people's clips, no music you do not have rights to, no faces without agreement.

Honest footage only

We publish what was actually filmed — not agency or university promotional videos, and not clips edited to look like something they are not. No promises about admission, visas or scholarships.

We may edit

We may trim, subtitle, translate and caption. We credit you by name, or by a username if you prefer.

You keep the rights

You keep ownership of your material and give us permission to publish it on our site and social channels. You can ask us to take it down at any time.

Send us your material

Fill this in and paste a link to your file (Google Drive, WeTransfer, YouTube, Douyin — anything we can open). We reply by email.

We use your details only to reply to you and to credit the material. No newsletter, no third parties.

Prefer email? Send the link to hello@vischat.com.cn with a short description — that works just as well.
