How to Conduct a Live Movie Broadcast With Numerous Talking Goes: Social Media Examiner

How to Conduct a Live Movie Broadcast With Numerous Talking Goes

Can you see me now? Yes, watching faces is indeed at the core of social media. Fresh devices have recently emerged that permit you to broadcast numerous live talking goes over the Internet.

Here’s the cool part. They cost next to nothing and permit you to instantly communicate with hundreds of people. The marketing upside is yam-sized here: quick movie talks with groups of prospects, organized events and much more.

We conducted four live multi-guest movie broadcasts for the launch of Social Media Examiner. In this article I’ll explain how we did it and share the contraptions we used so you can do this on your own.

How it Works

Are you launching a product or service? Looking to create a big social media splash? A fresh and powerful marketing idea is live movie broadcasts with numerous guests. Think videophones with numerous people who the entire world can see. Then add public talk and integration with social media sites like Twitter and Facebook.

As you can see in the above pic, I broadcasted live with Facebook accomplished Mari Smith. In the area below our movie boxes is a talk box where people asked us questions and interacted with each other.

The magic combination of witnessing talking faces and being able to talk live is a powerful marketing practice. Nothing hits eyeing experts in their natural habitats. Click here to observe the playback of the above example.

What makes this indeed interesting is the simpleness. People simply visit a page and instantly partake in the practice. No special software is required. Anyone can login as a guest. In addition, people can login with their Twitter or Facebook ID, making it effortless to participate and share the practice over social media networks.

So, multi-guest live movie broadcasts combine numerous live movie flows (you can do more than two if you want) with public instant messaging. Anyone can type in questions and their movie can even be brought into the live movie stream.

Why Do Multi-Guest Live Movie Broadcasts?

Many people are already familiar with services like Skype that permit one-to-one movie communication. The mass adoption of Skype is market proof that people like eyeing live talking faces.

However, the idea of numerous people streaming movie publicly is something indeed fresh. In the past, this kind of practice was restricted to executive boardrooms or major television studios. Now it can occur without special equipment or software.

So here are the variables:

Talking faces: Numerous people talking to each other over movie
Interacting watchers: Many people (even hundreds) interacting with the talking faces by typing in questions
Social media: The capability for guests to effortlessly share their live practice with others in their networks (powerful viral marketing here!)

The result: serious wow factor, powerful engagement and social proof.

Here are a few benefits of doing multi-guest live movie events:

Permits special guests to connect with people on a very private level
Enables your business to quickly test out ideas
Provides a platform for educating prospects and customers
Enables live experienced interviews among numerous parties
Attracts fresh people to your offerings as guests share their practice via their social media channels (with the thrust of a button)

And I’m sure I’m just scraping the surface of the possibilities here.

How to Conduct Multi-Guest Live Movie Broadcasts

The Service

TinyChat is the service we used for our live movie broadcasts. From a user’s perspective, TinyChat is truly elementary. You just provide people a unique URL (like tinychat.com/ourcoolbroadcast). You create this at TinyChat.com (see photo below). When people visit your “room,” they simply inject their name and they’re brought into your live broadcast.

Beginning a movie broadcast with TinyChat is super-easy. Just visit the site, come in a name for your fresh room and hit the green “Create your room” button.

Quick story: We were searching high and low for services that could lightly include numerous people at numerous locations talking on a single stream. We found no effortless solution. Then we spotted an article on Mashable.com introducing TinyChat. Despite some bugs, I was instantaneously struck and determined we’d give it a attempt for our launch. I’m glad I did!

Here are some of the service’s capabilities: videoconference rooms can accommodate up to four hundred people and you can have up to twelve live movie rivulets.

The service is free, but shows advertisements. If you pay $14.95 per month (and you can cancel at any time), you can eliminate the ads for your room and guests. The paid upgrade also provides a few more useful features. You can:

Reserve up to five room names for your business (like tinychat.com/yourname)
Set a password for movie broadcasters (ensures guests cannot begin uninvited movie broadcasts)
Set a password for rooms (for more private functions)
Create simplified recordings (I have not tested this one)

Little Talk Tips and Hiccups

There are a few bugs you should be aware of. Very first, if you set up a room on one computer and then expect to manage it on another, you could run into problems.

When you very first set up your room, you are introduced with a Room Settings option (also referred to as Room Starter Controls under one of the menus—see pic below).

Making things private: A few things you want to do right away include NOT permitting anyone to broadcast and NOT listing the room publicly. I have found that injecting a topic for a room is of no use if you don’t list the room publicly. This will prevent random unwanted guests from coming into your room.

Beware of the Twitter login: You can require folks to come in your room using their Facebook or Twitter ID. In order to maximize the entry into the room, I would select ‘No, just a nickname is ok” (see pic above).

When people very first come in the room, they are given the option to login via a nickname, or with Twitter or Facebook. If the person selects Twitter, for example, it will post a tweet in his or her feed, bringing even more people into the room. Beware of logging in using Twitter when you are very first testing your room, as others will be invited to join you (via an automated tweet).

Upgrade to save your room (and headaches): If you plan on doing a live broadcast, I would advise you to pay the $14.95 and upgrade. This will get rid of the large advertisements for all participants in the room. It will also permit you to set a master password for broadcasters.

Here’s why this is significant. One big bug with TinyChat has to do with Room Starter Controls. Let’s say you set up your account on one computer (or browser) and then you want to switch settings later on another computer. TinyChat won’t let you control the settings of the room because you did not “embark it.” The best way to ensure things go well is to upgrade and login. Then set a broadcasting password for the room and only give it to presenters. This ensures random people do not begin broadcasting and addresses the bug as well.

I’m here, where are you? Okay, this has happened a few times. I was logged in my paid room and no-one else was there. BUT, they actually were in the room and did not see me. I had to log out and log back in with a different browser. The problem seemed to be isolated to the Safari web browser. I hope they motionless this issue. The good news is it only occurred during test runs.

Tips for Movie Presenters

Here are a few tips to ensure your live broadcast goes as planned.

Do a Test Run: Having done a LOT of live events, I cannot overstate the importance of a dry run to test everything with your presenters. Technology always means hiccups. Conduct a test run days before your actual event with each of the presenters individually. This ensures audio and movie issues are worked out before your live event.

Make All Presenters Wear a Headset: One of the fattest challenges with live movie broadcasts is audio echoes. This almost always occurs because a presenter is not wearing a headset. So the voice coming from a presenter’s computer speakers is picked up by his or her microphone and creates a horrible echo. The plain solution: Ask if the presenter has an iPod headset. Have the presenter stick the headset in one ear and run the cord behind his or her back and into the computer’s audio output port. Also witness the audio indicators to make sure your voice doesn’t get too noisy or too soft.

Lighting: If you can, make sure everyone is well-lit. Often this involves asking presenters to stir a lamp behind their computers. Lighting, however, is a real art (and I’m no experienced). Go here for a cool movie on basic lighting technologies.

Have regular cracks to introduce fresh attendees to the presenters: Because people will virally detect your broadcast while it’s happening, it makes sense to have some regular 30-second violates where you introduce yourself and who you are talking with. Here are a few tips from Damian Christianson. Have some pre-crafted text that you can paste into the talk channel with details about the presenter and the event. Also provide a place for folks to go (like your blog) with follow-up questions.

Recording sessions: I have not experimented with the built-in recording capabilities of TinyChat. I choose to capture recordings myself. I’m on a Mac and strongly recommend ScreenFlow to record your sessions. Just reminisce that you’ll be recording audio from your computer and your input microphone, which can result in a slight delay inbetween your lips moving and your voice. I think it’s not that meaty, but be aware it will happen.
