Many visitors coming to your site may not know that they can post videos or images in Blogger comments, so it's recommended to add a short message telling them how to do that. Just access your Blogger Dashboard, go to 'Settings' > 'Posts, Comments and Sharing' and look for the 'Comment Form Message' section - here you need to click on "Add" link and add your text. For example:
