I'm showing how you can use slides as an overlay in your presentations. This allows you to layer your slides over your camera, showing yourself with the slides.

This has been so helpful! I wanted a way to bring in lower thirds to our church live stream, rather than full frame screen-sharing from keynote, and this is the clearest advice! Thank you!

This is very helpful, for exactly the reasons you mentioned. A quick and easy way to add slides while I'm learning OBS. I also appreciated that you're covering OBS in your videos and showing the steps. Thank you, Cat! =)

Thanks for covering OBS, all your videos are really helpful and well explained. Thanks to you I am now using OBS, NDI, green screen, slides as overlays, etc. I still have to get on Notion, but hey! One step at a time ;)

This looks interesting. I will definitely look into it. New to OBS, so I would have benefited from a bit more step by step, but will likely re-watch and try side by side. I have a 32 in 4K monitor so that should help with the one screen method.

I'm a big fan of the approach of using my Keynote as a screenshare overlay and myself in a camera overlay rather than as a source in an Ecamm scene. I can set up anywhere from one to threehundy scenes that allow me to move my head wherever I need it and not having to dodge sidebars or deal with weird panning. Big, small, full screen, insets, keynote as the inset...all the options. Maybe you recorded this was Ecamm didn't have those features but it's my go-to now!

@CatMulvihill 2 жыл бұрын

You are right! I recorded this before the overlay update (and before you could stretch beyond the borders of Ecamm).

Interestingly based on one of your previous videos about GoodNotes and slides, I created a Keynote presentation, exported as a PDF, imported it into GoodNotes and was able to use all the GoodNotes tools when I brought my iPad in to ECAMM as a camera.

I had OBS a dozen years ago. I never used it because it didn't do much. I tried it again recently. Now, OBS is a valuable tool. This speaker is a bit too stuck on Apple, but otherwise she's not bad.

@Dqrnan 3 ай бұрын

Excellent video, thank you. I am just getting started and you are a big help. I have two questions: wouldn't it be better to crop out the whole (or most of the) green-screen part, so you could animate the transition into the scene (like a pop-out from the side)? When you have the pop-out from the side, have you thought about moving the windo your in, centering yourself between the edge of the screen and the edge of the slide?

@MikealHughes-vg1tb 3 ай бұрын

Another question. I don't seem to have enough independent monitor locations. In Keynote if I figured out a way to run two ghosts monitors one on HDMI and another on USB-C, How do I Tell the slide show to go to the one on HDMI and the notes to go to the one on USB Still allowing me to have Ecamm on primary monitor. Write now my Keynote slide notes are on primary and slde show is on the secondary. I have not place to see for a "confidence" feed or see what is cued up next ready for "over the air"? Trying to come up with a better work flow for a combination producer / talent(?) arrangement. At the TV station we had about 5 different people doing all of this. I just have me.

At my church we use powerpoint slides in our live stream. We’ll make the slide full screen for a few seconds and then we’ll make it onto the bottom of the screen so you can see the speaker still. Is there a way to do this in OBS?

@gameng 2 ай бұрын

Hi Alicia Just create 2 separate scenes in OBS. One that share slides full screen and another where you adjust the shared slide size to the one you like and add your virtual cam. During livestream you just switch between scenes to get the appearence you want. Quite easy and looks great. Good luck /Stefan

@mariom5307 3 жыл бұрын

so just to have at least one stupid question between all the praise: so I simply fill the regions in my slides green where I want it to be transparent and am otherwise free? If this is how that works then the possibilities go way beyond monochromatic sidebars and lower thirds, right?

@CatMulvihill 3 жыл бұрын

Yes! Although, you don't have to only use green. In Ecamm, you can key out green or blue, and in OBS, you can key out any colour you want. I say get creative and try all kinds of slide set-ups. Just keep in mind where your face will be positioned.

You have a pleasant presence but I think you can increase the effectiveness of your presentations by showing us, instead of only telling us! It takes you nearly 3/4 of your video before you start showing us things. In the beginning, when talking about the slides: show us what those (uncomposited) slides look like. What your viewers will be creating. Etc. Keep it up!
