I've watched a few videos on how to do live-streaming, and, by far, this is the best I've seen. You made it simple to understand, and the video capture of what your screen looked like through every step was immensely helpful. Thank you very much. You've earned yourself a subscriber.

[ronlighthall]

You are the exact blueprint of how to do an instructional video, complete with links and precise information. Thank you for taking your time to give excellent instructional content.

[MikeAndCindyJones]

I'm just getting into Live Streaming and I have literally searched and watched what feels like a gazzillion videos on the subject. Yours has to have been the best so far. Thank you.

[monicamendez]

Definitely subscribing, my church is looking to livestream our services and I must have watched dozens of videos to learn how to do it on my DSLR for better quality. You made it super easy and informative, I thought we were gonna go bankrupt since all of the other videos I saw before yours were talking about thousands of dollars of equipment! I was getting frustrated and sad tbh. Now, thanks to you we know to just invest in the Camlink and OBS and we're set! We have people all the way from Argentina that have wanted us to go live for years now. So thank you!

[ziqfriq]

A minute of viewing this high quality production, compared to the average YouTube how to video, convinced me she knows what she's talking about. No iris bounce, no fish eye, no blue face, no wild hand held camera moves. It's informative too.

[peterhyun-letsgoentertainm]

You are the best. I swear I have filtered through like 10 videos with no luck. You were direct to the point and not only did I learn how to set up an inexpensive live broadcast set up. I learned how to use my canon a little better. I am a life time fan thank you!

[jondeak]

You are a freaking genius! I’ve been trying to hook my M3 up for 3 days using the Canon Utility. I finally broke down and called Canon and they said my camera was not built for live streaming. Low and behold I found your video and the missing piece to the puzzle is this Cam Link device! I could totally hug you right now! Thank you!!

[SarahJonestoo]

Excellent video. It was to the point and on message throughout. So many folks who post fill things with so much stuff which is off the point and makes the videos too long. Yours is fab!

[richardgraham]

Thank God, at last someone that understands what they are talking about. I have sat through a dozen clowns trying to set this up with a DSLR and they were totally useless, they did not understand what they were trying to do, some were using the camera via some proprietary stream then simply laid on the desktop. Let's just say the lag and framerates made this look like an animation from 80 years ago.

Thank you for a very informative, interesting and well explained video, it makes such a pleasant change from some of these so called experts.

[chicodalligna-filmmakerdir]

Simple and uncomplicated guide to set up a live stream.The best I have seen. Thank you!

[Thepeoplesentertainer]

Now I am retired I find myself setting upo a studio and buying equipment to vlog more often, just like to say I found the video extremely helpful. Thanks agin Vic Goldman.

[Ajango]

Premiere Gal, you are a life saver. I love your presentation and guide. You

[EveMattox]

This is complete package for demonstrating how to do live stream using external camera. I have been watching videos with different others but not of those satisfy what I'm looking for. Thanks to you! I am supposed to be using g7x mark 2 as a webcam for doing live stream but I kinda lost my way in watching mixed up videos with others. Thank you once again. It is good to know that we can't jump in using camera with hdmi cable right away! Perfect explanation and demonstration. God bless you more!

[lesscoin]

Hi I am new to advanced software for YouTube. I would usually just use my computer camera and computer mic. So this video is going to help my YouTube career out so very much, thank you.

[jackhenry]

You are literally what think media markets themselves as but you actually follow up with what the viewer wants. Thank you

[kristoc]

One of the best and easiest to understand videos for streaming that I've ever seen. Thank you so much!

[kansascitybellydance]

This video from Premiere Gal was a great help! Because the Camlink is sold out or people are selling it for 2 or 3 times the value (high demand now due to Coronavirus), I bought the "Elgato - Game Capture HD60 S" from Best Buy for $179 and it worked perfectly. I picked it up Curbside the same day. I tested last night with Zoom and connected with 9 of my students and and it worked great. From my research the S+ does not work with camera live stream. Looking forward to learning more from you. Thanks again!

[rosecolombo]

Thank you for keeping it simple and not rushing through it. You give us time to take notes -
