603 - Brief 01 - Options for Live-Streaming

1. Via iPhone
- mediocre video quality
- good quality audio - connected through a special TRRS to TRS input cable with built-in Line to Mic attenuator (converts audio from the DJ mixer into a mic input to the phone)
- Use Switcher Studio as an external platform to add watermarks and branding

Livestream Facebook

2. Via Laptop & GoPro
- top video quality through the GoPro 
- Connected to laptop through Capture Card (converts the gopro into a webcam)
- Top audio quality - connected through USB midi cable directly though the mixer.
- Use platforms such as OBS studio - free and easy to use streaming software - can hook up to Facebook account 
- Can also make use of multiple cams as well by adding different pre-set-up scenes which you can switch between whilst streaming (reliant on having a cap-card for each camera though)
- Can easily add various branding and motion graphics files over the top of stream for max engagement

Even offers a chroma-key setting (basically for green-screens!!) - if the background is a solid colour you can swab the colour and make it transparent for content to sit behind the decks.
- very unique way of making streams interactive for audience
- opens up endless possibilities for visuals / collab with artists and other creatives - opens the audience out even more!?
