There are a couple ways. One of them is to buy a physical switcher like an ATEM mini or Osee StreamDeck and run inputs from the cameras into the switcher and outputs to the TV. But this comes with challenges. You may end up running (and switching) two totally separate ‘shows’. Also using NDI ptz cameras is a little tough as I am not aware of a physical NDI switcher with hdmi out. You could hook up the ptz cameras via NDI to Wirecast and via hdmi to the switcher (and then output from the switcher to the external tvs) but it is a bit of a problem to solve and depends on a lot of factors like distance to the cameras, available crew and so on.

@@907DP Thank you, Gabe. We are going to try using the secondary and NDI output features in Wirecast. For the secondary output we will run an HDMI from the iMac as an additional display and then use the NDI output from Wirecast to utilize a Magewell NDI to SDI converter since that second TV is currently utilizing an SDI to HDMI converter. I hope this works!

Awesome! Glad it helped you out!

You're welcome, glad it was useful!

But S&Q mode won't let you 'drag' the shutter speed which is what this tutorial is all about!

​@@907DP yes it does - for example if you set it to 180 degree shutter angle and 1fp/s, the shutter speed is 1/2s. Same thing but much easier to work with.

@@janisbrodbut that doesn’t allow you to ‘drag’ the shutter! 180 degree rule will give you a 1/2 shutter speed at 1 frame per second. Doing it my way with interval record, you can get shutter speeds as slow as 64F! You can get nothing close to that doing it your way, the slowest shutter speed you can get using S&Q is 1F, or translated into ‘shutter angle’ the slowest shutter angle you can set in S&Q is 360 degrees. Not even close to the amount you can ‘drag’ the shutter in ‘interval record’ mode. Dragging the shutter is what gives you the ‘smeary headlights’ look in a time-lapse. You just can’t get that look to the same extent by using S&Q mode because you are locked out of the ‘F’ or frame accumulation modes in shutter speed.

@@GabeStrong ok I see, you’re talking about timelapses with less than one frame per second… I very very rarely need anything sped up that much.

Yay, glad it was useful!

I'm glad it was able to help you out. Do you shoot timelapses often? I personally love shooting them! Thanks for watching!

Haha yup. Just work gets real slow in Alaska sometimes, especially if you don’t live in Anchorage.

Yeah I was very lucky! My parents moved from a much more ‘normal’ existence to this place when I was fairly young (8 or 9 I think.)

Alaska isn’t as cold as most people think. Or rather it can be (northern inland parts of the state get brutal) but if you live along the southern coast it’s actually not as cold as many of the northern states in the US as the ocean keeps temperatures moderate. I like nice weather (sunny and 60-70) but I’m not much for extreme heat (above 85 and I start to melt.) I live in Juneau and it’s small (30k people) and off the road system. Anchorage is over 300k people and has a pretty healthy production community. If you were ever to come to Alaska, that’s the place to go as a freelancer as there is a lot more production work in Anchorage.

I used the lav mics that came with the kit. You can change them out but if you do just make sure you get the same size connection. Some look the same but have too long or too short of a connection to screw in to the Sony transmitter. Thanks for watching!

Thanks for the support. If you ever make it up here, hit me up for sure!

My first time using it….I’m sold! Going to B&H’s website now to purchase….

Very happy for you! You are gonna crush this! 🔥🔥

It’s crazy how many external drives you can go through! What size are your synology raids and how much have you uploaded to backblaze?

@@907DP All my external HDs match my Synology RAID. So I have about 60TB filled up on each. All my external drives are backed up on backblaze. I have a 1GB fiber connection. Took about a month.

@straymatterfilms. Thanks for watching❤️. I’m working on a video showing how I use an ATEM mini for ‘remote production’ where a remote producer/director can see my camera shot, direct me and/or ask questions of an interviewee…. ATEM mini is a fantastic tool to have for any DP/video producer!

Thanks so much, means the world. It’s no joke either, there is a lot of ‘new gig’ work out there. Look at @davidmorefield’s latest video. He was literally paid a nice day rate to shoot for the Wall Street Journal….traditionally a print publication. One of my friends took a full time job (not something I’d do but I digress) as a video producer for a daily paper. Online video is booming!

@@907DP you both are killing it! Keep it up!

@PDMokry thanks! I’m lucky because I was born at the right time! 😉. New developments in technology, high speed internet, voice artists I can hire from afar, music licensing platforms that allow me to license thousands of songs,and high speed internet that allows me to send video files anywhere in the world as well as cheaper tools like drones, gimbals and cameras like the FX6 have combined to give me opportunities to live here and do this without being forced to move to a bigger city. I try to remember that when the work gets slow here….it really is an amazing part of the world. And I’m with you on the heat too. I like it warm…say 70-75 but that 95-100 stuff is too much for me.

Thanks, was just watching your latest video about networking! Florida is lucky to have so many talented DP’s!

@@907DP we're grateful to learn from seasoned professionals like you🤜🤛

I’ve literally worked with so many DPs from Florida this past year…kind of funny. The video world is smaller than you realize. Great job on your channel, keep doing your thing!

@CrankyCameraman Thank you. Alaska is literally the ultimate ‘cheat code.’ I can point my camera any direction and it looks beautiful.

@@907DP Shot a documentary in Sitka, it was magic hour for like 20 hours every day, it was amazing. Montana is similar.

@CrankyCameraman You have been in my part of the world! Sitka is like 80 miles from me and is absolutely beautiful. And yes in the summer this is literally one of the most beautiful places in the world and 20 hours of sunlight (but the sun never gets high overhead) is great for shooting. Winters are a little different 😉. My wife is from Montana and I am there a lot as well. It’s quite similar in lots of ways and we have a strange ‘wormhole’ connection with lots of Alaskans who move to Montana and vice versa.

@davidmorefield Thanks! You know it was kind of strange to me, I did basic work that literally every camera op I know could have done as well or better than I did. Never tell the client that though…if they are really happy just take the win! Most of the networks have similar sheets. And that’s where it can get a little tricky. You need to make sure you get both your ‘labor rate’ (which is what they will pay you initially) AND your gear rental rate (which you must submit later). Day 2 after surgery and starting to feel a little better slowly. #Blessed.

Thanks! Glad you are enjoying the videos. Day 2 of recovery and starting to feel a little less sore. #Blessed

Thanks! Glad it was helpful.

Your welcome! Hope it provided something of value to you.

That variable ND on the FX6 can be used for all sorts of cool things!

I'm working on an episode right now showing exactly how to hook up multiple PTZ cameras, a joystick controller, a stream deck, and an audio interface so one person can do a Multicam show with animated graphics and titles. I'm not a networking/IT guy so it took a bit of experimentation but now that I figured it out, I thought I'd pass it on to other video guys who might have started to get into live-streaming.

You bet! Always look forward to seeing your episodes, I've watched all of them. I just dropped an episode on shooting timelapse's with the FX6 today and have lots of episodes in various stages of production, so more will be coming!

NYC? Did you drive or fly?....lol

Thanks! What about you, what do you do?

I’m blessed for sure! Love your channel!
