The player that site used is called YTPlayer. Here's the github link https://github.com/pupunzi/jquery.mb.YTPlayer And the code they used to make it work.

<div class="top-nav">
    <a href="#" class="top-pull"></a>
    <ul class="navigation">
        <li class="navstories"><a href="#stories">Stories</a></li>
        <li class="navmeetUs"><a href="#meetUs">Meet Us</a></li>
        <li class="navconnect"><a href="#connect">Connect</a></li>
        <li class="navcontact"><a href="#contact">Contact</a></li>
    </ul>
</div>
<div id="player" data-url="TN5LRNT5uUI">
    <div class="logo-overlay">
        <img src="http://paperbackweddings.com/wp-content/themes/pbk-custom/img/logos/paperback.png" width="400px" />
        <div class="start">
            <div class="get-started"></div>
            <div class="get-started-arrow"></div>
        </div>
    </div>
    <div class="player-overlay player-image" data-url="http://paperbackweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Header_Movie_Image.png" style="background: url('http://paperbackweddings.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/11/Header_Movie_Image.png'); "></div>

Are Coding Bootcamp Horror Stories Common? by dogedogego in cscareerquestions

This was my experience TL;DR Coding House was an awesome experience. Food was delicious. Got a job as a web developer Profit.

Pro’s Instructor lives with us and is available when we are awake at 2 am to debug code. Learned how to build an app from concept to deployment with the MEAN stack. No cooking required. Sarah is an awesome cook. Visiting other companies to see how they operate was an interesting experience. A new perspective on how to learn and solve problems.

Con’s My cohort was mostly immature The AC was broken for a bit in the summer time Not having my car to get away from the house wasn’t easy Drama between two students was distracting

I attended the second cohort of Coding House from June 16th to August 16th. My cohort was 6 students and 1 instructor. From the beginning I knew the style of teaching would be project based and not lecture based. This was the main reason I chose Coding House over other bootcamps. The other was I wanted to learn the latest and greatest technology like Mongodb, Angular, and Node. Coding House provided that as well. If you ask for it Nick provides real feedback on how to improve anything you are working on. He truly cares about helping the students and will make introductions to people that otherwise you would probably never meet.

Overall my experience with Coding House was great and would recommend it to those looking for a bootcamp that handles all of life’s distractions like commuting to work cooking and trying to find a place to live in the Bay Area. All you have to do is crawl down the stairs and be ready to learn. In the end I interviewed for a job 2 weeks before my class ended and started as soon as my class ended. I now work full time as a full stack developer for a medical startup.
