Golden Rules of Live Stream Club Turn off your computer or mobile devices
before broadcast. Wait 1 minute then restart.
Check your bandwidth and your devices. Make sure your sound and camera are on
and working.
If you don’t have the bandwidth to go live…..
Go old school and record your video on your laptop, camera, smart phone
or table. And upload it later
It’s not the end of the world if you can’t go live.
The truth is most people watch live broadcasts in replay.
What equipment that will make your live streaming easier and make you look more professional at the same
time.
Of course if you want to go Old School….
Use two laptops or a combination of laptops, smart phones or tablets.
For my Google+ Live Broadcasts
I use two laptops, along with a Blue Yeti Microphone and Logitech C 920 Cameras
