What to say about it? It’s an open-source software ( click here if you want to contribute) and as such it’s not exactly the most user-friendly piece of software you’ve ever seen, but it gets the job done. Nice, a new piece of software for my machine. And I was right, I quickly learned people are using Open Broadcaster Software (OBS) to stream and record. No problem, Google is my friend, I thought. When it arrived, I realized that I need a way to replace the green background with something, so I figured I need some sort of software to help me stream. So – what the heck – I ordered myself a green screen. Right after one of my sessions, I had a video call with Waldo, and I noticed he was using a white background. People were using some sort of background removal approach, not necessarily a green screen, but something. Some recordings I watched were of far better quality. I’ve recorded my session, and the recording was very bush-league. It wasn’t live, but it wasn’t far from it. This year due to Covid19 outbreak, Directions went online.
Then another thing happened: Directions Virtual 2020. “Hello, World!”įor a while I’ve been following Erik Hougaard (sorry Erik, this time I spelled your name correctly!) and his video blog. So, this blog is a story of my journey, or adventure, with live streaming so far. Maybe it motivates you to start streaming. Tell me I am wrong if you want, but I think sharing my lessons learned is a good idea. Now, almost exactly a month later, with five total streams delivered, four of which with actual relevant content (the first was merely an introduction), I know so much more about live streaming than when I started.
This year with grand total of zero live conference sessions delivered must have been a contributing factor. I don’t know where this quote comes from, a one-minute googling didn’t reveal it to me (but it isn’t mine, I’ve read it somewhere for sure).Īnyway, a month ago I started live streaming. One thing we learned from lessons learned is that we don’t learn from lessons learned.
