A free two-day course workshop with Alec Johnson, a new Meet the Fam with TEDx speaker Joe Casablanca, and this week's Kickstart about the projects still sitting in your drafts.
Hey Ecamm Fam,
What a week.
Over the last seven days, we’ve loved watching so many of you show up for the 7-Day Live Video Challenge. Some of you went live for the very first time. Some of you experimented with new formats, new workflows, or simply gave yourselves permission to hit “Go Live” without overthinking it.
And honestly? That’s the magic of challenges like this. Not perfection. Not polished production. Just momentum.
If you didn't get a chance to join us for this challenge, don't worry! We're keeping it going this week with our Community Kickstart. Honestly, you can always make the decision to challenge yourself to learn a new skill, get better at the tech, and just put in the reps. We're here to support you on your way!
Now let’s dive into this week’s updates.
COMMUNITY KICKSTART
What's the idea you haven't started yet?
Not just courses, anything. A show you've been meaning to launch. A series you keep outlining and never recording. A format you want to try but haven't gotten around to.
Join the conversation and let us know:
What's the thing you keep coming back to?
What's the one thing that would actually get you moving on it?
Sometimes just saying it out loud is the push. Let's hear what's brewing.
In this pro tip video, Jill shares a simple way to use overlays in Ecamm to visually guide your framing using tools like the rule of thirds and grid layouts. Instead of adjusting your camera over and over, you can drop in a transparent PNG overlay to help you position yourself exactly where you want to be in the frame.
Join us at Creator Camp: Mac Edition this July at Macstock, or come experience our flagship Creator Camp event this September in Portsmouth, NH. Both events are designed to help you create better videos, build smarter workflows, gain confidence on camera, and connect with other creators in a collaborative, hands-on environment.
This isn’t a sit quietly and take notes kind of conference. Creator Camp is built for conversation, creativity, experimentation, and real connection with the Ecamm Fam.
