Here at the agency we have a version of our TV reel on DVD that I created, categorized by budget. We've found it helpful on a few occasions to give clients an idea of what we can do for a given amount of money. Recently, I was asked to put this version of the reel online, so people could view it that way instead, which was a good idea. You can check it out here for reference.
This was meant to be done in a day or two and there were too many spots to hard-code, so I started looking around for pre-fab YouTube galleries (all of these spots are on YouTube). There seems to be a few really huge, elaborate ones, and one or two really simple ones. What I wanted was something in between because I needed to be able to horse around with it and get it to do a couple things the way I wanted.
So, I mashed together two separate things I found: the PHP Simple YouTube Gallery found at Webarto.com to generate the thumbnails and create links, and Fancybox to create a lightbox effect. With some further modification to allow captions and to use the new YouTube embed style, it does exactly what I need.

De nombreuses personnes me contactent pour me demander comment réaliser une galerie de vidéo à la demande, sur leur site web. C'est ce qu'explique ce tutoriel : comment créer une galerie vidéo à l'aide de Youtube.
J'ai choisi de vous montrer le principe avec Youtube, car leur API est très bien documentée (comme toujours chez google), mais cela aurait pu être avec Dailymotion ou tout autre site de partage de vidéo disposant d'une api développeur.
En fait, l'idée c'est d'externaliser l'hébergement des vidéos, et de pouvoir diffuser des vidéos produites par des internautes lambdas. On économise le coût d'un serveur de streaming (et de la bande passante surtout), et on profite de l'aspect communautaire de Youtube.
Dans l'exemple, une vidéo est chargée par défaut et en dessous se trouvent trois vignettes ; un clic de l'internaute sur l'une d'elle chargera le film.

Today I would like to talk about video. Maybe you’ve got own video website, maybe you’re thinking about it, but anyway I think that our new information will be useful for you. As you know, video usually means that you need to have a lot of space at your hosting. And it is true in case if you store video files at your own server. But, in order to avoid all these difficulties (video storing and conversion), you can try to work with 3-rd party video hostings. As example youtube (or vimeo). In our new tutorial I will tell you how you can create youtube cross-uploader for your website.
In order to achieve our idea we will use
YouTube API v2.0 – Browser-based Uploading. In the beginning, we should prepare our own access token key. OAuth will help us with it. Then, we will display a form, where user can enters the video details (like title, category, description and keywords). When we have sent this information, Youtube will return us temporary upload token and url. Once we get it – we can start upload of selected video file.
