i'm going to show you the exact steps to take to schedule
a youtube live event using ecamm live if you're new to my channel
make sure you consider subscribing if you'd like more videos around
live streaming tutorials video content creation as well as a weekly live
streaming q&a session with me here every single friday let's
jump into this tutorial but before we do that let's roll
that intro my name is rob balasabas hey
so here's what you need in this tutorial you'll need an ecamm live account
if you don't have one yet head down to the description
and click on the link to get one started there's a free version
as well as a paid version so if you want to get started
and you're new to ecam live just get started with a free
version either accounts will work with setting up a youtube
live event once you've got your ecam live account all set up
we're ready to go so let's jump into my screen and i'll show you how
this works alright guys so i think it's really important for me to show you
where we need to end up and so this is my
youtube channel if you scroll down what you'll probably see
is you'll have the scheduled live q&a and subscriber chat that i do
every single friday every single week and so this is really what we want to
set up using ecamm live and so now let's jump into ecamm live
okay so the first thing i want to make sure that you guys understand
is that ecamm live is only available for mac
only right now so i'm on a macbook pro and so i'm gonna open up ecam live
okay so now we have ecamm live all opened up so i'm gonna change it from
record only at the bottom right here to youtube i'm gonna select
the broadcast to be unlisted and i'll show you why in a moment
and then i'm going to click on live now and i'm going to change that to
new scheduled live that's going to open up this new window right here and
i'm going to show you from top to bottom what to put in here so the first thing
is broadcasting to - you want to set it to
unlisted because i schedule it two weeks ahead
and then i use tubebuddy to then schedule that
to go from unlisted to public after the next live stream
is done that might sound really confusing right now but i'll show you
what that means near the end of this video but for now
trust me you want to set it to unlisted we're going to put a title and so i'm
going to put the title that i always use every single week
there you have it now we're going to put a description as well and this
actually becomes the title and description for the youtube video itself
and there you have it i've put in the description now we're going to go into
stream latency which is going to be normal
we are going to make a decision whether or not this video is made for kids or
not now depending on your audience most of the time it's probably not going
to be made for kids mine is not made for kids so i'm not going to check that
off now you can schedule the live so this is when you look at the time and
date as to when this live is going to happen
for me this is going gonna be scheduled for next friday
so not this coming friday for me i'm filming this on a wednesday
i'm gonna be scheduling this for the following friday so for you
it's whatever date it is so just put the date there first and then after you put
the date in you're gonna put the time so mine is 7 a.m pacific
the last thing on this page is your thumbnail image so
click on the gray thumbnail image right there
you're going to pick your thumbnail this is mine right here so i'm going to click
open and there you have it we are all set so to recap
it is unlisted i've got my title my description
stream latency is normal mine is not made for kids
yours might be so that's up to you and then i put in the date
and the time that this live stream is going to happen and then lastly i put in
the thumbnail image and then once i'm all ready i click on schedule
okay so now we are all set so there's been a couple changes that you'll notice
here on the bottom it says schedule in eight days so i can go live
here in eight days also here in the
destinations there's a second scheduled live stream so now there's two
one for june 5th another one for june 12th those are the
dates that i have scheduled for my live streams right now
and now let's head over to youtube and i'm gonna show you where these scheduled
lives are sitting all right so here's my
youtube channel again if i scroll down you'll see that there is only one
scheduled public live right here which is the one that's coming up this week
and so i don't want to put both of them live
because it's going to confuse the audience and that's why i put the second
live stream that's happening next week to unlisted that way
it doesn't show up on the home page does that make sense if you have any
questions around that why one is unlisted and the other one is
public let me know in the comments i'm happy to answer that question for you
and now let me take you to the back end of my channel where you'll see the
scheduled live stream that's happening next week and what i do with that live
stream so that it shows up automatically on my home page here on my channel so
i'm gonna click on the tubebuddy logo right here which is my browser
extension i'm gonna go to live streams on the top right here okay
so now you see both of my live streams the one that's happening this friday
right here which is public and then the other one that's unlisted
which is happening next friday and so what i do with that one
that is unlisted happening next week is i go in here there's a little
tubebuddy button for this video i click down into that menu i click on
scheduled publish right here and i change it to go from
unlisted to public and i will set that date to go public
for this particular live stream right after this friday's session is
done so for me that's this friday at let's
just say 9 a.m it's going to be set to public at
that point i can also add it to a playlist after
it's published which is going to be the live
subscriber chat q a right here i'm going to set
this to send me an email reminder 24 hours before the published date
just as friendly reminder and then once i'm all set i
will then schedule the publish and we're all set so the one that's happening
two weeks from now is going to be going public as soon as the one from this week
is complete so does that make sense let me know in the comments
basically the idea is that there is always one video that is going to be
public on my channel as the next upcoming live
stream i hope that helps if you have any questions
let us know in the comments make sure you join us on our weekly live streams
