Hey there pantry pizza people welcome to Tony's reviews today on Tony's reviews I
want to be doing a how-to video this how-to video is about live streaming and
when I decided to start live streaming on YouTube I thought I would like to
have some of the cool graphics that I see other people using when they're
doing their live streams so I started researching it and I found out there was
a pretty cool program that you used for Windows Explorer well I don't have
Windows Explorer so I researched a little bit deeper and since I use a
Google Chromebook I found out that there's a really cool software for you
Google Chromebook 2 and just for Google Chrome in general the web browser and
this program is called light stream right there's their logo
and light stream is a free product that you can download from the google chrome
store well I downloaded this program and I
found out really quickly that it's super easy to use and during my live streaming
a lot of people asked me how do you get those cool graphics on your live stream
and I said I use light stream and they asked me if I would make a tutorial to
show them how to use it as well well that's what this video is it's just a
short tutorial to show you how to get started with light stream who knows
maybe in a few weeks some of you will be showing me some things on light stream
that I didn't even know about so just sit back relax and enjoy the tutorial so
we're gonna go to the Google Chrome Web Store so we'll just double click on that
and then we're going to search for a light stream
you'll see this is the light stream app and it's pretty easy all you got to do
is click on Add to Chrome ad extension and it downloaded that quick it says
light stream has been added to Google Chrome so now I've got it so now all I
have to do is we see that we have light stream installed right there the little
triangle and all we have to do is just click on that little light stream icon
and then you can either click on this one or this one I usually just click on
this one and then it's going to give us an option and I'm going to click on
YouTube it's asking me if I want to log in and right there Tony's reviews I'll
click on that and I'm going to say I'm going to allow it and what it's done is
it's opened up another window over here and it's going to ask me to put in my
email address so I'm going to put in my email address now and right here you see
it has opened up and these are the last settings that I used when I did my last
live stream on light stream so what I'm gonna do is I'm going to start from
scratch I'm gonna get rid of everything so this was my Easter background that I
used so all I've got to do is just click on the trash can here and it's gonna
delete this whole thing and yes I want to delete it because I'm trying to show
people what I'm what to do here so now we're right here at scratch so I'm
giving you details here so because I did this trial and error every time you log
into this you need to update your settings so you'll want to click on this
little triangle right here and you're gonna go down to here to account
settings and you're gonna click on live stream labs and you're gonna make sure
you turn all these to green and what this does is it allows you to put
different things on the light stream I just click them all on so that doesn't
block me from doing anything so now what we need to do is we need to come up with
a name for the live stream so right here I'm going to type in some new name so
I'm just gonna put I'm gonna call Tony's live hour
and I'll put an exclamation on here so everybody knows how exciting it's going
to be and then over here where it says Tony's reviews your you have options and
since I picked YouTube it's pulled up the YouTube gateway right here so over
here I need to change the name of the livestream too so over here I'm just
going to call it the same thing and put another exclamation point okay so now
I've got it named and it goes on up there and I usually leave my settings at
this 480 480 P 30 frames per second now that we've got everything fresh and
ready to go all we have to do is click on the plus button and now we can add
any one of these things that are down here right now and I want to add a video
backdrop so I'm gonna do that so I'll click on video clip and I've got a few
saved over here and since this is my tutorial video I'm just gonna show you
I'm gonna use one of mine that I've pre-made and all I did was I just made a
video of some of my pictures and this is very easy to do so I just opened this up
and now the video of my pictures is right here and you can see it playing
now so this is currently the backdrop and I'm just gonna leave that like that
and you're gonna see these pictures change and just kind of flow and that
just gets people something interesting to look at while they're doing the
livestream or why they're in your livestream I'm not saying that I'm
interesting looking I'm just saying that you know it gives people something
interesting to look at if you've got movement and some change and then we're
gonna add some layers and when I say layers I just mean we're gonna add some
text and you know the actual video and that sort of thing so right here we're
gonna add an image and I've got some images pre saved and you can go on the
internet and find these different images so like the subscribe button you can
find that on the internet and that's what I did I just found it on the
Internet let's click on that and I just pull this right out of my files on my
computer so there's the subscribe button
and I'm just gonna put that over here to the side and let's say you wanted to
pull it off your computer I should show you that shit night so we'll click on
image and you can click on upload image and then you can pull it off your
computer so right now I can choose a file and these are all the files right
here that are on my computer right now and I can choose any one of these
pictures right like right here's the Twitter bird so I can click on the
Twitter bird and it will add it to this file so I'll double click on that and
you see it's uploading it so now I've got the Twitter bird that's getting
ready to pop up and there it is and you can see I've got the controls
right here to where I can shrink that down and this reminds people to go to my
Twitter account so I'll put that right there so now we've got the Twitter bird
subscribe and then I also like to use the old Bell turn my people to ring the
bell so we go to the images and this time we'll scroll down here and we will
click on the bell so there's the Bell and I'm going to shrink that down so
it's not huge and you can find all kinds of different bells on the internet this
is just what I happen to use it's kind of big and clunky looking and now what
we're gonna do is we're gonna add some text so we'll just click on text here
okay so to add text I usually just stretch this out like this and then all
you have to do is double click on the text there and then you can write
anything you want to in there so right now I'm typing in Tony's
reviews okay so now that I've got that written out all I have to do is double
click on it again actually I'm gonna have to double click on it you just go
up here to this and you can change it so I wanted to stand out so I'm going to
change it to a brighter color someone change it to red and see there it's in
red now and I can also change the text of it so we'll change it to something a
little more interesting looking so I'll change it to crimson we'll give it a
background so that you can see it a little better so you can background it
and you make the background as light as you want to and what I do is I just give
it a little background and lighten it up so that you can see through it because
people kind of like to see through that so we can see through that now and you
see it's it's still there but all I got to do is click on scroll down here at
the bottom are down here in the middle click on scroll all I have to do is just
click on scroll here and now it Scrolls for me and I can even change it to give
it some texture here too so I'll change it so that you see it a little bit
better so we can change the stroke on it and now you see it's put some white
behind it so that it stands out a little bit better and I usually put that down
at the bottom there's kind of out of my face because I'm getting ready put my
face up here in the corner alright so now I'm going to put my face in here
okay so the next thing we're gonna add is video or the camera so we'll click on
this and we'll click on camera it's gonna put the camera right here and then
want to add the camera and you see it's got a big old picture of me right there
and I don't like it that big so I'm gonna shrink it down to where you know
you can see a little picture of me and this big old thing here
so we're shrinking down and then right there I can just put myself up here in
the corner or you can put it down here in the corner or wherever you want to
put it I just figure that's where people read from normally so that's where
people's eyes first go alright so you can see here I've just got a general set
up I've got some low graphics down here I've got a scrolling marquee and this is
pretty much it this default microphone is a little bit too loud so we're gonna
turn this down to like 40 42 41 42 and the movie appears got some music in it I
think but we don't want to do that sound at all so we're gonna take that
completely out I think I've put some like relaxing music in there or
something so if you want to show another screen all you have to do is click on
say we're gonna see a new chrome tab click on new tab like this and we'll
share it okay so now it's gonna put my picture I think it's going to put my
picture it's gonna okay so now it's showing this is in my backdrop right so
that's how you share a screen so I can shrink myself so that you see more of
that screen if you want to and I haven't played with this whole lot I thought I'd
show you this real quick in case you want to do a shout out to another
channel you can pull up their screen and stay in the livestream so this helps
quite a bit and it's kind of fun this is pretty much how to do it so right now if
I wanted to go live all I would have to do is click on go live and it just
shoots me right over to YouTube to my channel and I go live immediately so
once you pop up and go live you're going so if I clicked on this right now a
little blue dot would pop up and it would go make me go live as a matter of
fact well I'm doing this I think I might go live why not so let me get rid of
this Google Google Chrome screen back here and I think I'll just go ahead and
go live so you can see how it looks okay so now we've got this in here and this
has got good music and this is that cool background that's got the got the bridge
and the night scene to it so we're gonna get rid of this other background here
real quick delete that one
and we'll make this one our default background now stretch this out you make
this big as you want or as small as you want and now that we've got that done we
better turn down the music because this is gonna be pretty loud for anybody
that's listening and I'm sorry you can't hear this but I really don't know how to
turn this on to where you can hear it I just know that you said it's about 2:00
or 3:00 and that's plenty loud that's for any music we put on here and I'm not
sure why it's so loud it just is I haven't figured that out yet so I'm
still a rookie at this I just wanted to show other people how to use it because
I'm the only one that I know that's using this right now I'm sure tons of
people are but I'm the only one that I've seen in the youtube circles that I
run around with that's using this so here we go I'm gonna go live so all you
gotta do is click on this button right here and you will go live and now we're
gonna go live so we are going live right now so we are in a live stream so right
now it's blocking my face for just a second but that'll go away here in just
a minute so and Leroy is barking I apologize so people will probably come
in unless there's a ton of live streams going on right now probably get a couple
people here and there okay and they'll pop up down here and you can always
switch this chat out and this is what I like to do so you can see the chat
really big so pop out the chat and it's going to pop it over here real big so
that you can see everybody that's talking to you when people start
chatting this is all going to pop up right here you're gonna see people
saying things I'll type something in here real quick just so that we can see
something
Oh somebody's in here so there we go and then I'll hit enter and it says hello
everybody so that's what it looks like folks so you're doing a live stream with
light stream that's how it looks see how short that video was see how easy light
stream is to use that's why I'm talking about this product I think it's really
cool so folks if you're going to livestream and you want some really cool
graphics and you want a product that's easy to use I suggest using light stream
and remember you can download the light stream software at the google chrome
store for free so go on there and check it out download it and get started
