What's the top thing you wish a webcam would just DO?
Work and look good when you plug it in
Make more vids
Have a blurry background or look like a dslr
Blur background
Just not be complicated
I love how Harris and Sam just assume we are too poor to pay for the premium version of stuff and they're correct.
It's cause he knows what it's like 😂😂😂
true
They’re some of the only that really understand though
Lmfao funny cause its true
Now the $50 webcam is a $250 webcam, and they are back-ordered to the 2nd coming.
Yeah, why it's so expensive right now? Is it because the demand so high?
@@abrianardedes probably, high demand and low supply.
@@abrianardedes due to covid-19 and zoom conference.
i bought it at discount for 50$. but it does not really cost that less.
it usually is arround 80. and now over 120$ on ebay.
I cashed in, i sold mine i got for 50 for 140 AHAHAHAH
@@ddg517 lol nice.
as soon as he said “take a picture using your phone” i literally said “fuck offff”
but fr tho why didn’t we think of this lol
I did this back in 2012 when I had a garage based streaming setup and had to bring a truck in. I just a took a still from the cam before though. Didn't really think to do much else with it.
I don't even have my phone with me rn (it broked last month rip)
This is a very cool alternative to a true DSLR camera for sure. I personally am not a fan of green screens being used all the time, but I get the desire to want to blur a background, get that depth of field and all. Neat trick all the same! Thanks for your guys' constant hard work!
Have only watched 2 of your videos so far but the speed is just right and the explanations are on point. Just the right ammount of detail. Slow enough for me to understand and fast enough for me to avoid pushing that juicy fast forward buttom. I can always rewind if i missed something and i love that you get that. Hope you do or have done many many more.
Bro, awesome! Hands down, entertaining, brings knowledge, well made, awesome video you two!
Insane amount of value in your channel man. Congrats and thank you.
Yep
Post a link to your room image. If we’re going the fake route, might as well steal from the best ;).
Thewolfman_6 LMFAOOOO FAXXXXX
I was the 420 like
post it..
love this channel you’ve grown so much since I started watching which was around 50k
I am so unbelievably happy I found you ! I have been an adult cam model on and off for about 7 years total and you are covering everything as if you were in my brain. Like everything
Legit one of my favourite videos on this channel. Sound advice and probably the best stream clip ever.
Great Video once again guys! Always enjoy the vids you guys make, such great info and learning many things from ya. Thanks and kerep up the great work. PS you and Sam working together on screen is Hilarious!
Lmao you caught me with the "you need more, you need lights " 😂😂
Yo big ups to this channel, just finally started taking streaming seriously for the quarantine, and i've been a bedroom DJ for about 6 years. You've given me some badass tips & tricks over the last couple of weeks than I've learned in my whole time streaming. Much love
Wicked idea! Never would've thought of this! And thanks for the awesome tutorial Sam!
I absolutely love your content, I found your channel a while ago but recently been more consistently watching your videos.
Coming back to look at this in October... Remember being able to be in rooms with people
I've actually thought of doing this. Since everyone shows off their streaming "room," I have a corner in my living room, so without the green screen, its a white wall. Which is super dull. This games me some ideas. Thank you!
Ive mentioned this a few times on stream and its never noticed.
The more expensive C922 Pro Stream webcam has a built in chroma cam.
It is not perfect but doesnt require a physical green screen.
While the green screen effect looks pretty ragged, it has a background blur effect that actually looks amazing.
I actually love this, not what I thought it would be, but this solves an issue I had with an old idea that I had. I am so excited!
When your space is so small that you'd have to put a green screen on four surfaces just to get it to work.
Here’s how to make a cheaper camera look like a more expensive camera. Also you need to buy a green screen. Haha
And lighting
I suppose lights are cheaper than a dslr for 500
@Arctic Donkey does this really work? i'd be interested to see how your feed looks.
a green screen is litterally anything green man. 5$, green paper or felt or whatever you find easiest, bam, green screen.
You could also use xsplit vcam, which also does the blur for you
I literally just purchased everything for the budget streaming/gaming PC and Now THIS!? I've always wanted to find a way to create a fake background with LED lights and you've answered my question. YOU sir just got a new subscriber! 🙌🏾
I love your vids man. I was literally like "nuh uh" when you said i can make my webcam look like that
PSA: Watch your GPU usage when using the Blur filter. It uses far more than you would expect.
Why does that matter?
Truth..... Using ours for 2 webcam filters for blur during starting and brb and it uses close to 40 percent.....
@@nrtic8364 Because your GPU will already be working its arse off when streaming, if thats what you'll be using the blur for.
@@SnDPlays You're not using the GPU for the blur . the blur is static in this case ! This is a great alternative if you don't have a fancy DSLR with a low aperture - Nicely done
You're not using the GPU here to blur anything - so it will have minimal impact.
How'd you know I would be looking for this today Harris? XD
So glad you went back and added the Fauxkeh portmanteau. Too good to miss!
A really cool effect that you could also use this for, if you border out your camera in your game play capture (Might look ok if you don't as well never tried)is to make the green screened background slightly smaller so that it looks like you're popping out of the background. Gives it almost a 3D effect.
Great explanation video, Sam amazing work as always :)
Out of curiosity, why do you tend to use Color corrections and Not Luts?
"Until someone....." Harris, what ya got in the works?
hes deffo making one with elgato, bet he had influence in the elgato mic coming soon too
@@ZendoNinja94 the suspense though! *twiddles thumbs*
Hi people talking about needing a green screen. All you need is a single color blanket or sheet to key out. It doesn't need to be a "greenscreen". Green is only used because its very vibrant and not found in skin tones so you will never accidentally key out ur face. If you have a blanket or towel that is one color you can achieve this.
Sincerely, someone who went to film school
How about a green t-shirt?
I'm SO glad you took the time to recognize the fauxkeh portmanteau opportunity. For real. It was gonna irritate me it it didn't get mentioned at some point XD
Always appreciate the focus on not just buying the most expensive item but looking at what you will actually be using and what you will need
If I had a green screen, I would put myself somewhere cool, not just my room. Or have no background at all, lol.
So this is how Logitech stream cam did it! Harris to print a retraction for last video...... 🤓
You could also use green poster board as a green screen. If your webcam is not facing a wall or you are not comfortable putting the poster board on your wall, you could also use pvc pipe to hold it up
Great videos as always! Love this
Great content, Just getting into twitch myself. I have everything I need bar the actual confidence to turn on my DSLR camera whilst streaming as I sit in a cupboard lol. Being able to blur and change the background is awesome
How do you do a greenscreen on a stream though? Super livestream beginner here.
Content Aware. It's a setting that allows the software to make a certain color or range of colors transparent.
@@ihatenickleback5059 absoloute legend for this been waiting a while for it to come out didn't know it was out already! awesome bit of software
U use a green screen
No one mentioning that this is THE Clisare?
@@PurpleDerpy lol u use a webcam even tho u don't have any actual good videos ir even a face can
its really awesome you have done this. i done this same thing about 6 months ago with my cam as i was not happy with the way looked with my lights in the back.
I love that Post Production you came back with the Fauxquet.
Everybody: I want my dslr video look like film.
How To Make A Webcam Look Like A DSLR.
Actually exist
I just love your content
Starting my stream and I’ve watched a lot of your videos, great content. but this one… legend
"$50 C920 webcam"
2020: LOL
Brio 4k
Was kind of hoping on some tutorials on camera settings.
This video could have been much better.
Awesome video. Enjoyed the broom fight !!!
You know.. considering I asked about your opinion on doing something similar but not quite as in depth a few weeks ago in chat I'm super stoked to see how good it looks.
Me: *has same camera* yoo niceee
Alpha: lets improve this $50 cam
Me: *bought the cam last week for $100* wait wtf????
Well, it's usually worth 50$ but with the inflated prices due to Covid you end up paying 100-150$ instead.
@@pseudo3857 yes i know lmao crazy
this is the worst time to buy anything tbh.
@@nicane-9966 Idk. I imagine used DJ equipment should be way less expensive rn. 😅
I had this same idea! But since I don’t have a green screen, I am waiting for the Nvidia background removal! Any idea when that’s coming out?
if it comes out soon it will be crappy
Want to know too! I gave up waiting and just bought one, but would be interested to see how well it works.
Haha love the ending, Sam is great!
You can also do this, admittedly not free but it's also not expensive, in real time with no green screen using the Xsplit Vcam software. It works pretty well!
wait, i can't find the bit on how to do it in streamlabs...
Yo can we get a download drop for the mad geometric background of your intro
Really interesting! I've seen webcam filters before but adding those extra lights would be so useful for me since the wall behind me is pretty empty 😭
Starting my stream next weekend so excited I watched this
Good luck man
@@rubenplaysguitar6939 thank you !
DO more vods with SAM before he leavvess pls xd
I wish the C920 was still $50, the price hike is insane 😂
Razer Kiyo is pretty sick, got mine on eBay new for 110 which isn’t bad comparatively, comes with a built in ring light and it looks really good
You can buy it off the Dell website for a decent price. On ebay the bids go too high for me. Got mine for £90
Awsome info man thanks for sharing all this!
You just inspired me, so I've setup the basics needed to form a company in my country, and will be messing around with making a web cam using a heavy duty android phone processor modified as my driver for the web cam, aiming at a size comparable to the Logitech c922.
Just wanted to let you know two things:
1.) Great video, I learned a lot. Thanks.
2.) The name "Gaussian", is pronounced "gow-see-an". fun-fact, Is is the name of a mathematician (Carl Friedrich Gauss). Gauss's formulas make up much of the basis of computing and almost all other fields that are math heavy. he is some times called, "Princeps mathematicorum" which is Latin for, "the foremost of mathematician".
thank you for coming to my ted talk.
So as a IT professional and a mild mannered streamer I can kinda answer why we dont get better web cams. The reason is pretty simple. Companies like Cisco and huddle are the major players and most web cams are used for conference rooms and so on. Huddle cams are awesome but expensive Cisco well its Cisco. Maybe with covid and more remote work and learning there will be more options and affordable options coming soon.
I learned sooo much from your videos. Very well explained as always. Thanks
very nice, im still learning how to do all this streaming stuff myself, thanks for the tips.
oh, green screen! okay, I'm out.
I just acquired a DSLR, now I wandering if it was a good decision...
Always, a DSLR isn't just tied down as a webcam.
Hopefully you got a mirrorless camera and not a dslr.
@Christian William still depends on what kind of camera you got. What is the model number?
@Christian William most of the older dslr cameras will take amazing pictures but aren't good for streaming because you can damage them by overworking the motor during long streams. I use a $1000 mirrorless camera for streaming and it looks amazing!
@@raizt1596 It is a sony A6100 and I want it for youtube videos to.
This is a great video! Wish I actually had a green screen so I can do things like this. Your videos are awesome, don't stop making them!
That's exactly what I was looking for!
Thanks
Ok, that's pretty clever :) But now i've got to buy a green screen!
Lhorbrum you can get away with a green sheet if you don’t want to spend a lot on an actual green screen. Heck I mean I think pewdiepie uses a spray painted projector screen lol
@@Iggyhaxor That Elgato screen looks fantastic though :P Wish it was cheaper.
@@lhorbrum1818 apparently its super nice i think pewds even ditced his janky painted projector and got sponsored by elgato and advertised it in one of his vids, alternatively i think neewr makes a super similar one that costs a bit less
they are cheap. google is your friend...
I have literally been doing this for years. I thought that's how everybody did it. That didn't have money.
I started to actually use my Smartphone as a webcam in OBS and the quality is way better than my c922. I use an app called IP Cam (or you could use the NDI app as well) which streams the video to a local IP Adress which you can browser capture in SLOBS/OBS. the downside is that you'll need a really fast and stable WIFI connection to get a realtime stream, or you might have to consider lowering the "stream qualtiy" of the phone resulting in more MPEG-artifacts. But you could go down to 50% and still get an awesome image.
Bro best vid ever my channel needs this so much ❤️
OK, so this involves me becoming a video editor and webcam military advanced level expert. Cool. It is not in detailed enough tho.
First quote of Harris 2020 (comedy):
(While hitting sam with a broom "This is why you'll never get a raise" - Harris Heller 2020
By far the best channel ive found to help...hate really saying newer streamer trying to grow(by no means ashamed) but feel like that statement comes off well needy but not only have many of these videos taught me good knowledgeable things but the more i watch the more my own creative juices start and thats just as valuable as any video content provided....provided feels wrong there but anyway...full disclosure i started out through twitchs mobile app broadcasting mobile games and actually started on youtube but still so small and ben a little vacated for sometime i rushed into a poor laptop trying to rush into a better looking stream without putting in any real research and you know that story ends on failure the laptop just had no chance even just try to stream my mobile through it.. and i forget if it was during this video or on the one currently playing on my smart tv but you were talking about being willing to fail and i at least with my experience have almost a greater feel of pride or something like that that is coming with every time i knock something off a check list and there still a big list to go but thanks to the channel i have a better feel for what i want moving forward and more importantly what i need...sorry for the life story my ocd built up from my smartv only marathon of watching this channel(my tv doesnt let me comment while watching)
For anyone that might have missed it. The links for the camera light overlays are in the Alpha gaming Discord. I didn't listen to Sam until I watched the video a couple more times. You can miss it very easily.
Sad when the description dost not have any of the links?
Wdym ?..
@@demyanrudenko There isn't a link for Owned.tv or the other programs.
@@haydan1507 it's in the discord
If it's a decade behind, could be Apple behind the curtain for the engineering 🤣
Founds this channel today by accident but its awesome - keep up the great work
Okay, that post-production shot was smooth! I always wondered if there was a way to add in things AFTER recording a video.. Anyway, thank you for this!
Oh btw .. This kinda reminds me of that video of MissyMae pulling down her greenscreen to reveal her fake background hahaha. People sometimes don't realize how difficult it is to get lighting right for every stream, so this is def. a worthwhile trick!
well with a video cutting program like davinci resolve, adobe premiere, sony vegas / movie studio, tmpgenc video mastering works (which supports x264 which almost none programs do, not even the expensive ones).
make sure you record you videos with a high bitrate, high CRF or even lossless.
cause you need to encode your video again after cutting the clips together. lossy material encoded again doesnt always look good.
Just being one of the many people liking the video before even watching the whole video 👍
Harris? Can you take a photo of your room (without the chair and you) so we can use your room for streaming? :D would be nice to "stream in your room "
Awesome vid! Gonna try it this weekend
Another great video ! But the broomstick clip got me again 😂
Auto levels.
Auto contrast.
Auto color correction.
Green screen and $1000 worth of lights. Simple.
Done.
green bedsheet, poles, empty water container, ducktape, lizard sun lamp with white led and part of a trashbag to soften light hanging off a hook in the ceiling. homemade isnt great but you CAN figure it out if you really desire it
@@SkarletShadows Sounds like a rave party for the homeless. But not half bad.
@AidanRNC And a green halo. Priceless.
f i need a green screen now
I bought a few things from OWN3D.TV, and LOVED it! Thanks a bunch to you all!
This is simple genius. Simply, genius! Many thanks, yay!!
Unbelievable that anyone can make a living just with showing videos! I am amazed!
This is really about to help with the garage setup I have to use for the next year 😂
Harris: "You'll be like 'Why did I not think of that?'"
Me: Why would anyone ever think of that?
this is actually really useful!!! sooo smart tbh
Bro you r the best person telling tips to improve the stream hattsoff mannnnn
I have a c920 - I use an old school method of using a tiny amount of vaseline on the outer rim of the lens. ( Having cool stuff in the background, well, can't help with that but ... ) This creates a blur/glow effect depending on how you apply it. Just keep the main subject (You) clear. Photographers/Filmmakers have been doing this forever. It's quick, cheap and effective :)
PS - No, It doesn't hurt your cam.
Great video. Congrats. Would it be a good idea to use an iPhone 11 Pro Max or iPhone 12, Pro Max, as the external camera instead?
NVIDIA Broadcast also helps with image replacement/background blur. Note that you do need an RTX or beefy graphics card to get the most out of it...
This quarantine has made the webcam prices skyrocket here in EU. The logitech c920 costs 140$ which is insane, the cheapest webcam that is decent is the logitech c270 and on a discount + a coupon it is 40$
Good idea 👍 By the way been using Davinci Resolve for couple of weeks and can also recommend it! Free software,easy to use and so many features ♥
This is something I've already done with my backdrop. It's clearly not my room since it's animated but I've added a bokeh effect just to the video
Your videos have actually helped me so much. Got any tips for getting followers?
