The fact that you were recording yourself while running a livestream shows how comfortable you are doing this. I get nervous when someone starts talking to me. Lol. I love this behind the scenes tech stuff!
Ha Ha Ha, I can feeel that. Even I switch off my phone or pass it to someone else and instruct him to reject any calls that comes from outside of event peoples.
Facts, my palm starts sweating 1hr before the show starts...this guy must be some kind of cyborg...
As always, very inspiring! Thanks for sharing the behind the scenes :)
This view behind the scenes is amazing! I Love it!
Damn, i been waiting forever. Love this content
Thank you for showing all of this!
Brilliant stuff guys. Keep it up.
You are soo good at what you. This is beautiful
Wow, man! Excellent content as always! Keep doing that. I start my livestream company in 2020 and I just do weddings and graduations. Starting with conferences, etc. right now. Need to practice with some Zoom guest, etc. Thank you!
you guys are rockin!
Great Video 👍🏻
Would also be great to hear how you deal with audio on hybrids where live and remote people are interacting. Do you have a way that doesn't require remote people to use earphones to keep the live voices from coming back with theirs?
Love your videos! Awesome setup
Thank you!
Nice set up .
Friggin awesome setup as usual. FIRE!
Question: Does no continuous autofocus on the PocketCams ever give you issues in these types of productions?
Absolutely sick insanity
Really interesting to see more on how to .
A specially interpreters and zoom drones
How to
Waouw... Top set up! Easy! ;-)
Only 1 1/2 hours to set up. That's nuts. Good job.
Can you please do a video about the wireless camera setup thank you kind courtesy Sontime
Great video! Would you by chance have a routing diagram available? I'd love to see how this all connects!
Thanks for the video. What is the make and model of the 15" travel monitors you mentioned in the description? I need a 15" portable monitor for an Atem Mini Extreme. I have one that works with the Pro but not with the Extreme.
What are the extreme portrait mode monitors you use for the zoom drones? Are there feeds from two drones going to each one?
Great video by the way.
The audio guy you are working with in this video walked off with my rain jacket on a gig one time. I miss that jacket
Wow! This is so impressive! Hats off to you and your crew! Thanks for sharing! Quick question, I currently handle the sound and live streaming for our church [with an atem extreme showing basic lower thirds, lyrics and verses and also separately stream a Spanish interpreted feed (also interpreted by me while I switch) through OBS] and have occasionally wondered if these skills could be applied to a side-gig of any kind. Without getting into the corporate big leagues as as you do, what would you suggest to start? Are weddings, and larger parties a good place to start or is that a different ball of wax?
Thanks for sharing! Some serious gear there! Do you charge a premium for these type of gigs?
Amazing, informative and inspiring! Would like to hear any update on why you use zoom drones instead of their NDI out. You seem to not use any NDI..
Have you considered adding a DHCP server or using static IPs to your network for the video rack? If I remember correctly you are only using a switch and 169.254.x.x addresses
Had a scenario of Livestreaming 6 languages. French, Spanish, German, English, Swahili and the other. Have never done this before but I started by drawing a block diagram. Even though I never did the job, it's always striking my mind how to do it. Would you be having a block diagram picture alongside video explaining an approach of such a scenario?
I am in need of this myself. Thank you for having this vision and reaching country and continents and island in their native language. ❤
can you explain what a "zoom drone" is?
How can you have different Lower Thirds on the Preview and Program with Propresenter?
I've been watching this video for the second time! I had the same probs with zoom and an atem switcher... reboot zoom, reboot switcher, nothing works :-( bad day! Do you find the prob origin?
What do the zoom drones do?
Wow. Wish I could’ve known you were in Seattle. Thanks for all the value you’re bringing for our company. How do we setup 1v1 consultation? What does it cost? We’d fly out to you if you’d let us to meet you guys too!
Reach out via our website and let’s meet in person if you like! A2Z-productions.com
How did you get each person’s video from zoom? And how are those eartec comm working?
@ 12:00 is that pro presenter for your Lowerthird, if so do you have a video explaining that?
Would love to know (or see a video of how you would) set up doing a zoom call with live presenters in the room where the zoom caller can see a camera feed and house audio from the room, and the people in the room can see and hear the zoom caller. Then pumping that into a live stream. We've been asked to do it and so far have only done the audio from both room back to each other not yet the video feeds. Thanks! Great content!
Yes. That. Me too
Sean, I am thinking you would bring the zoom caller into the ATEM with audio as a source. The camera feed from the house and audio would be on the same zoom call. This eliminated mix-minus issue. Then "pin" the zoom caller video to use full screen in ATEM. This allows you to send to projector/monitor with audio to house and also allows zoom caller to see the house feed.
Hi, could you do a video on the zoom drones? Esp what the speaker sees on their end.
It is a very good idea so that each laptop hdmi output is a camera feed to the atem mini.
But how does the speaker sees on their screen and how are you able to have multiple pgm output to each zoom session?
Thankyou in advance.
This is the fanciest setup anyone could think of for this kind of indoor event live. The setup looks way heavier than the actual event. The multiple staging is overhelmed. Thanks for ther behind the scene.
MANIACS!
Around the 930 mark…. How did you get separate feeds into the atem?
Hi I'd like to know what software do you use to stream to the platform you are targeting? If no software is being used what equipment/device do you use?
How long do you use on average to rig this up and down?
Bro, i like your setup for hybrid conference, I want to learn from you. Hope we can setup a meeting in near future for some trainings.
Great video as usual. I would like to know how you would include a translator into a Zoom meeting/webinar? Thanks
Zoom can have enabled Language function for several languages. Interpreters are assigned to each language pair and viewers can choose to hear only language of choice with or without a bit of original. This feature comes with webinar add-on, so not part of free or basic paid accounts.
@@srbh41413 Thanks for the answer, but what I was talking about is this I am doing a live conference in a big room and there will be a translation system in the room with a translator in a booth translating Portuguese to English. Some of the participants will be joining from zoom and I will send them the room video/audio feed. But I also want to send the translation feed into zoom to those who need it. What I was asking Is the best way to send it to only those who need it and not others on the zoom call?
@@emmanuelfrancis Assuming the Zoom account has the webinar add-on enabled, you could set up one PC with room feed (original) as external audio input (mic of Zoom) along with the video of room, and another PC logged into zoom with another Zoom account and have as external audio input the Portuguese voice. The host has to enable Language function for the webinar/meeting, and also has to assign the login with the Portuguese voice as interpreter with English-Portuguese chosen. It may be necessary to have the interpreter voice account already joined to the meeting before it can be enabled as interpreter. All the instructions of how to use Language function are on Zoom support. The part that isn’t there is setting the separate PC to receive the output of interpreter’s voice. Hope I am understanding you correctly.
@@emmanuelfrancis The concern about “sending only to those and not to others” is answered by only those needing to hear Portuguese need to choose it in the Language function, Everyone else just listens to the original normally. This is the great and unique feature of Zoom.
@@srbh41413 Thank you so much for confirming the set up. This is the way I thought of doing it but I was not sure. i will go ahead and check the level of the zoom account. Thanks again
Which cameras are you shooting with? You said "extremes" on lighting stands, I figured that wasn't what you meant to say. OK I see in the list of equipment "pocket cinema camera 4k"
What made you go this route over vmix?
How many MacBooks do you guys have?
Вся правда о конференциях заключается в постоянном желании спать. И по тебе это видно ))
How do you connect one ProPresenter computer to two keys (upstream for 4 boxes and downstream for one box)?
yeah will like to know too
For the Zoom drones, do you set each up with a unique Zoom ID or log them in on the fly? I find setting up an unique Zoom ID for each one lets me re-invite easily from the "main" call computer.
We just join a single zoom call "on the fly" with each zoom drone. usually well in advance of us needing them.
I feel like these guys OVER DO EVERYTHING!! LOL ...but it's still entertaining. I regularly do the majority of this with 10% of the gear.
Wow ... I'm going to stream first "public" stream tomorrow. Got 1.5-2h to setup, although I'm running just 2 cameras + some overlays. Someone else is responsible for sound mixing.
Could do dual monitor outputs from the one PowerPoint laptop? 1 monitor presentation , 2nd monitor presenter confidence overview?
We’ve done that in the past snd found it a bit buggy in very specific situations. Especially on a mac. May be more stable on a PC or desktop mac.
Specially talking about Microsoft PowerPoint with more then 2 displays.
What made you decide to bring 2 Powerpoint laptops to the first event instead of using two screen outputs on one computer?
if your min laptop crash... you loose everything...
Question; so for your “Zoom Drones,” I’m assuming you are logging into the Zoom Meeting/Webinar using separate free accounts, correct? If so, how are you hiding them during meetings, meaning other attendees don’t see the drone logins… I know this can be done in Zoom Webinars, but I don’t know how in Meetings.
There is an option to PIN the image
This is way above where we are at in church...lol. Now, that being said, why do you just run from the Atem Mini Extreme and not use an Elgato Streamdeck like you have suggested in the past? Or are you using the Elgato with Companion and we just cannot see that?
Yes we are using both. No reason to remap and remake buttons when cut and auto and inputs 1-8 + super source are already nicely laid out on the atem mini extreme. We just make SS looks and aux output buttons on the stream deck using companion. anything that is not easy to do on the switcher itself we make button on the stream deck to make it easier.
@@A2ZProductions I have a Stream Deck coming today for 1 button access to SS looks. Running my M1 Max laptop and 2017 iMac to the switcher as well, but my Anker 777 hub is not playing nice with my iMac despite changing resolutions, etc. It blacks out, loses connection, then RE-establishes connection when running thunderbolt into the Anker and hdmi out to the Extreme ISO. With all of this we have to be problem solvers, not just button pushers, which is why I appreciate your videos so much
The whole truth about conferences is the constant desire to sleep. And you can see it from you))
These setups are impressive. Not sure what zoom drone is :o
Hey, I’m using roughly the same setup for my corporate events. However they are mosly in person. I’d like to purchase two “zoom drones” or “teams drones” to be able to be hybrid. My budget is not so much, want to be around the 3K marker at the most. Therefor I was thinking to purchase 2x M1 Macbook Air with 16 GB ram. Would those work?
Yes that should work. Just make sure you have an adapter that can do both power and HDMI out through single USB C thunderbolt cable.
@@A2ZProductions awesome thanks a lot!
Can you explain the zoom drones in a bit more detail?
The Zoom drones are used as video sources for Zoom callers. You can take the video from the computer into your ATEM as a source. Audio can be embedded or split out. Simply "pin" the caller to use full screen.
ok I wonder how much you charge fornthis kind of stream, Inneed to know full price for this kind of job. please... I work the same thing at my company and I really wonder if they should raise my salary...
i know this is a dumb question, but could you explain what you mean by a "zoom drone" please?
A Zoom drone is just a computer that is logged onto a zoom call where the camera is off. mic is off and computer is muted. It is just used to full screen pin a person from the zoom call so the image is sent full screen into the switcher. Hope that helps.
@@A2ZProductions so what you're saying is that for each zoom participant you use a computer? So you can pin them and have them Full screen?
@@A2ZProductions THanks. It does help. I work at a local university and we are beginning to have hybrid faculty meetings. There will be some faculty participating in the meeting via zoom and others in the conference room. all participants will talk. Does your set up require a zoom drone for each online faculty member (say 15) or can you just right click on their image (and pin them) in one drone and accomplish the same thing?
I am about to start learning to do that thing there that you are doing and I find your utter lack of anxiety regarding the metaphorical flaming chainsaws......disturbing. Seriously though, great work and fantastic explanation of some complex content. I plan on re-visiting/re-watching materials as I move closer to the event.
Im a more techy person opposed to an AV person, but all those laptops in your setup look messy, wouldn't it be easier to move if you used a pc with multiple low power grahics cards and different logged in sessions? So you'd basically have a few monitors and 1 pair of keyboard and mouse connected to switch between them? that could be setup pretty easily
True but what happens if that one laptop freezes, or PowerPoint displays to the wrong outputs on top of my live zoom screen, or I want to talk to my zoom guest before they are live while a video is playing on the current presenters power point. So my situations and possible things to go wrong that we felt the best way was to separate tasks out so they can’t interfere with each other. Gives us more options. Receiving an updated a PowerPoint minutes before talent needs it on stage while someone else is presenting happens all the time. Two different powerpoints helps so much for so many different reasons. Same with zoom drones. Playback machines and switcher/control/stream laptops.
Seems to be a little overkill for what the event is
you were so fired, eating pizza in front of the mixer.... smacking around shows how disrespectful you are.
i wonder how this revenue...
