Recently I discovered that I could post videos via my Google Maps app.
I wonder if there are guidelines, rules or suggestion for shooting videos for Google Maps. Should we stand still and turn around? Should we walk around to capture all the aspects of a place? Maybe comment what we see? English? Russian? French?
I think it would be helpful if Google team provides us what what suggestions so we don't strew something up. Also that could help us to report inappropriate videos

From what I understand thus far, you can only shoot video and post it via an Android phone.
The videos can only be 30 seconds long and you will get 7 points per video.
I stand in one spot and take a 360 video of the area first.
Then I move to other areas and take more video, if it is a good opportunity. Many times I have found that one video and then pictures for details are best.
