      Hi Omar,
      I did my first livestream on the beginning of June, when I got the opportunity to interview someone. I was rushing to learn how to use StreamYard with your tutorials, and it went OK.
      I also bought the Rode NT USB Mini, as per your recommendation and I love it!
      What stand do you have for it? The one I bought is not that good.
      Thanks for your videos! I have learned a lot with you guys!

    I recently hit 1000 subs and I am now prepping for a monthly live stream. My first one is next Tuesday! Thanks for this info!! It is very helpful in getting me prepared! My biggest concern is my brain just going blank lol The slides idea is genius and I plan on using that even if I can't necessarily show it to my audience. That will help me stay on track!

    • @TheJBeck1
      @TheJBeck1 Рік тому +1

      I only have 600 subscribers but it says go live although I never see any people watching my videos. Do I have to have 1000 subscribers to actually see. people watching my video and chat with them?

    That was really useful. I've been publishing online for 10+ years but only got into vlogging when lockdown happened. I go live from my phone but want to crack the art of using the computer and streaming software - I'm a bit baffled right now! I do a live chat show each week - combination of a bit of planning and a lot of winging it. I also live stream while I'm out and about to bring variety to my channel. I'm a very WYSIWYG person so I don't have a problem with the chat - it's the tech that I'm behind on!

    Thanks Omar! I plan on going live for the first time next Tuesday and I'm preparing now. Tonight I'll be making my thumbnail and writing the description so that I can schedule the livestream tomorrow. I'm a virtual teacher, and "go live" every day with my students. I am looking at this as another lesson where I'll have a prepared history lesson that I'll go through. If this works for me, then it will save me a ton in editing and allow me to post more often.

      That's because like he said. This is a pre-recorded video he can edit, redo it etc..he said with live stream because people are watching live like a concert or show. You can't edit live😂 the comments can be roasting him or he do something clumsy or whatever, it's LIVE. Can't edit that.

    Hey Omar, I have been livestreaming for the last 121 days and will go live again tomorrow. Got some valuable tips from you. changed the settings, I use Streamyard and I stream simultaneously to other platforms as well. Loved the idea of attaching the thumbnail prior to the live. Will start doing that from tomorrow. Will also start making use of the slides since that adds variety like you said. Super idea! I am using my Mac to livestream so have not added any cameras or mics. Would love some feedback if you can manage since there are more than 150 videos there. Thanks so much

    If I'm coming across some connection issues when using streamyards, what would you recommend as a way to troubleshoot that, does an ethernet cable work well or is it morso about properly using the right export or broadcast setting? What would you recommend? I streamed to UA-cam on one video and one to Twitter/Twitch/UA-cam on the next. The one with fewer locations ran smoother, thoughts? I do actually love stream yards and am brand new to it, that's why I wanted to get as much info as possible. Currently I've only done the two tests but am really excited to learning more about stream yards

    @Siimply.Jessica Рік тому

    9:13 do you recommend filming like 5 to 10 videos that you never publish on UA-cam or another platform so you get used to talking to the camera? The only thing that stopping me from starting stream is the fact that I know my first few videos are going to be super awkward because it's a hard transition to go from being regular person to trying to have a conversation with a camera and not found awkward while talking what do you just for that? Because I have a few good video ideas my first few videos but I'm scared to make them because I think the video ideas I have a really good but I think my awkwardness with talking to the camera with lower the quality of your videos that I have in mind so what do I do for that? Do I just leave those ideas for when I feel more comfortable and practice filming a few videos on my own? Or do I just go for it starts streaming and upload my offer videos anyway

    Great tips Omar! Your videos are super helpful! I have been doing livestreams for a while and need to up my game. I have an OLD Canon Rebel T3 but I don't think that will cut it. Do you recommend a newer Canon or Sony or with phone cameras these days I could get away with that?
