The BEST OBS plugins to great online presentations on Zoom

OBS Studio is the tool I use to create engagement and interactivity in my presentations, making them a unique experience for the audience.

And one of the questions I get most is: Which plugins do you use to create these crazy effects?

So, I decided to record a video about that, and I bet you'll be surprised with what you'll learn.

Whether you're doing workshops, group coaching, or training sessions, OBS plugins can extend what OBS can do right out of the box and allow you to do really cool stuff.

But you don't want to install a lot of plugins. In this video, you'll discover that there are only four OBS plugins I recommend for your Zoom sessions.

I'm giving you the battle-tested list of plugins I've used for years, which I know will make the most impact in your virtual presentations.

And you'll see that to use OBS effectively, you actually need fewer plugins, not more.

These are the only plugins I use in my own presentations and, spoiler alert, just one of them does 80% of all I need!

Watch the video, explore these plugins, the possibilities are endless. Put into practice what I show you. I assure you, it will be worth your time.

Great Video! Curous, how did you move the main camera screen to the side while the slide moves in at the same time?

One of the best obs vids I've ever watched! 🙏 You've got a new sub👊

[StefenTower]

Thank you for your guidance on the most useful OBS plugins. I was able to find the plugins demonstrated in the presentation, but it would be helpful to viewers if they were linked somewhere.

Hey Filippe, thanks for this! very helpful! Do you have a recommendation for a countdown timer plugin?

[lachellecarrozza]

Wow, this video is amazing, it's exactly what I was looking for! SO helpful! Thank you so much 🙏

[ericandrade]

Great vídeo and amazing tips. You got me wondering. Do you have any tips on streaming over Instagram?

[evertonoliveira]

Hey Felippe, great content - I'd just recommend adding chapters to your videos, it makes it easier for us to follow the content, or if we want to rewatch the video and jump straight to what we are looking for. Keep it up.

I loved the Move transition. It was even a key reason I started using OBS. The problem I found is that every time OBS updated, the Move plugin would break and have to be completely reinstalled manually. Have you not encountered that?

[dodgrii]

great tips, thanks. It's always good to optimize how we use plugins

[twopianomanGAB_D]

Your video looks good with only 4 plugins.

What a wonderful tutorial.

What's the manufacturer and model of the stream deck you're using.

Thank you

[royalhealthdan]

Thanks for sharing! I'm curious, what type of green screen are you using and where did you source the backgrounds? Thank you!

Well done mate 👍🏻 Cheers from Western Australia 🇦🇺

How to do this when running OBS on Mac OS? I don't see a download for Mac version on that page, just windows and Linux. Thanks.

[frankyd]

Hi Felippe! Wow! Is it possible to get your scenes to import in obs please?

[CHRISTOPHmerrill]

Do you do anything with ATEM switchers? or just OBS and Stream Decks?

[BrendaCreates]

I'd really really really like a highlight cursor plugin from within OBS.

[Silvamethod]

Still a lot more to figure out. I just want to use it on zoom but not on OBS as an option. How to add?

[Strata-GEE]

Great the case where as numerous plug-ins have been installed on OBS, is it safe to somehow uninstall them, or just uninstall OBS and start fresh? Also what tool do you used to remove background the way you did in your video? or what background removal tool do you sujest ?...I would love to focus on the plug-ins you suggested, the way you lay your video out is really Again

How do you get your slides to have rounded edges? Are you sharing an image or screen capture? When I share screen capture, it does not look as good as yours. Thanks!
