best practices for sharing video file: share Photos album or share original files via iCloud Drive?

I take a lot of videos with my iPhone of volleyball at tournaments - one point per vid. I go through all the vids, find the best ones and either share individual vids or I assemble a bunch into an iMovie. I usually share to Facebook. I use the latest MacOS, Photos, iMovie and I have my huge Photos library in the cloud with all my devices optimized to have access to everything in the cloud. And I have a 2 TB iCloud. Sometimes however, a team wants to see all the vids, even the points where they screwed up. I create a spreadsheet of the vids that I can share as a key to the files.

If all the vids are in my iCloud Photos Library, can I just share the album the videos are in in my Photos app on my Mac? Or do I export the vids to a folder in my iCloud Drive and share that folder of files?

iMovie has changed in the past year. It used to be I could not grab the vids directly from Photos into iMovie which is why I had been exporting the vids to a folder before importing them into iMovie. I know, it's a huge waste of space. But now that I can create an iMovie by pulling media directly from Photos.

If I share my Photos album, would that give my friends access to the full resolution file where they could download any/all of the vids? Or would it be better for them to download from a folder of original files in my iCloud Drive?
