Ecamm for Non-Techy Creators


Hey Reader!

Ever feel overwhelmed by video software that seems built for Hollywood producers? Katie from Ecamm just dropped the perfect "non-techy" walkthrough that'll transform how you think about creating professional video content!

The Minimal Setup That Actually Works 💡

Forget the fancy studio setups you see online. Katie's crushing it with just:

  • M1 MacBook Pro (2021) - No extra displays needed
  • Shure MV7 microphone - Clean, professional audio
  • OBSBot Meet 2 camera - Tiny but mighty
  • L-shaped desk in a tiny space - Keeping it real and uncluttered

Live Stream Note: This exact same setup works perfectly for both pre-recorded content and live streaming - no additional equipment required!


Think PowerPoint, Not Hollywood

Here's Katie's game-changing approach: Build your scenes like you're creating a PowerPoint presentation!

Instead of getting lost in complex video production, think about your content flow:

  1. Scene 1: Countdown timer (for live shows)
  2. Scene 2: Main camera with guests
  3. Scene 3: Review/discussion scene
  4. Scene 4: Wrap-up scene

The Magic: Just click "next, next, next" to flow through your content seamlessly. No complicated transitions or editing needed!

Live Stream Tip: This workflow is identical whether you're recording or streaming live - just hit "Record" or "Go Live" and click through your scenes.


Customizing Your Workspace

Don't let all those windows intimidate you! Katie's pro move:

• Close what you don't need - Comments window for recording? Gone.

• Overlays are your friend - Add graphics, comments, screenshots on top of your main video

• Lock your scenes - Prevent accidental changes during recording

Pro Tip: Use Window → "Show All Utility Windows" to bring everything back if you get lost, then Window → "Arrange All Windows" to organize them neatly.


From Setup to Stream

Katie's workflow is beautifully simple:

  1. Create profiles for different projects (podcast, meetings, presentations)
  2. Build scenes in the order you want them
  3. Label everything so you can recognize scenes quickly
  4. Hit record or go live and just click through your scenes

The Result: Professional-looking content with minimal post-production work because everything - graphics, audio, video, overlays - is captured perfectly in real-time.
