Finally, I’m set up for Twitch streaming

[@GriffinHammond]

All of you were right! That pixelated celebrity was indeed Jeff Goldblum.

21:24 OMG, I just imagined chat backseating editing. :D

[@GriffinHammond]

"Why aren't you using the Trim tool, you dummy?!"

[@PastorFury]

I could totally guess Goldblum based on the hands. He's so iconic

[@Hankomatic]

Yes, Nick, let's see that sim racing stream : )

[@GriffinHammond]

The people demand it, Nick!

@@GriffinHammond I just followed him specifically for the gaming content.

You gentlemen are so not old, wait until you realize you have 20+ year friendships that initially started in adulthood.

[@bryanb30]

I got the Jeff G right away!

[@bryanb30]

Skin tone, posture, angle of view in relation to height combined with smile on one’s face usually correlates as well.

Question, whose shot is flipped in this episode? You both have rings on the left hand and Griffin's hair part is on the correct side, but Nick's room is backward from what I remember. Do you guys do some ring trickery to make the ring appear on the correct hand? And Griffin, do you ever part your hair on the other side if/when you know your shot will be flipped that week? Hang on, maybe nobody is flipped

[@GriffinHammond]

Ha ha, no flip in this episode, but you're right that I DO sometimes flip my shot or Nick's shot. (See the Monopods episode, when I last flipped my shot.) I never change my hair direction, so the part is a telltale sign. Nick's shot looks different because a couple months ago he changed up the orientation of his office.

[@NickzAndMikz]

@@GriffinHammond Gotcha, thanks for the reply. I usually only listen to the podcast version, but I check in on the video to see what the setups are looking like. Your guys' lighting is always stellar

Hi Griffin, I'm UnkownPlayer on KZbin as well. Would love to know your tips on growing non-gaming content on Twitch. I've started streaming on Twitch (worldmerge) just building projects, like stuff I'm just working on and want company. I'll check restream out and see how the audience engagement changes. Also how do I put chill music on my streams and be able to record the video without that music in it? Just in case there are copyright issues when I upload it to KZbin.

[@GriffinHammond]

Love what you're doing on your Twitch channel-programming, exploring hardware in real-time. That's a good idea, whether it's for copyright issues or even if you license the music you're playing on Twitch, it would be nice to have a clean audio version, in case you need to re-edit a video. How are you currently routing your mic audio, and what streaming software are you using? The easiest solution might be to record the stream as-is, with the music track baked in. But then also record your mic separately. Like, I use Audio Hijack to both record my mic, and route it into OBS for the stream. Therefore, I could always remove the stream audio from the OBS video recording, and swap in the original mic recording.

[@edwarddeaver]

@@GriffinHammond Thank you! That's a good idea about recording straight from the audio source and sending it to OBS! I'll check out if there is a program like that for Windows. My setup right now is a Rode videomic NTG connected via USB and then synced with my video straight in OBS.

Mask a duplicate you in, then pixelate. Or Kylie Minogue.

[@GriffinHammond]

That's an excellent idea-cover up the original person entirely with a decoy! THEN pixelate. I've often done that with sensitive information. Delete it entirely from the document, but then pixelate decoy text-so it has the appearance of being blurred out, but there's not even a chance of someone recovering the original information.
