The 5 Minute Implement Before your next recording, open Preferences > Recording in Ecamm. Check "Record all broadcasts" and select the camera boxes for yourself and your guests. You'll do this once, and then every recording will give you separate video files for each person. This makes editing and creating clips much simpler. Here's How Why Isolated Recordings Matter Your raw recording is just the starting point. The value comes when you turn that hour-long interview into clips, highlights,...

Most creators chase viewers, subscribers, and downloads. But that's the wrong metric. THE BIG SHIFT: From Audience to Community The difference is simple: An audience listens to you. A community talks WITH you. As Doc put it on this week's show: "By nature of the word audience, it's to listen to somebody...
