Time for a new M1 Mac…
I wish we had such nice teacher in Germany
Which microphone are u using? Computer or external mac...
@@josewabo2131 These days Tom is using the RØDE VideoMic NTG I believe.
I have a technical question:
How do you get clean HDMI out of your EOS R and keep autofocus?
I know manual focus gets rid of eye/face focus box but you seem to move a lot and stay in focus.
I also use ElGato, Atem Mini Pro, and of course, the Eos R.
Your help would be much appreciated.
I record to usb drive from. Atem. Mini but I always get the square focus thing.
Oh my god this is amazing. Your students are so lucky to have you as a teacher
Thank you!
You have folders on your desktop called Puns and More Puns - love it 🤣
I think you are soooooo right about the dual benefit of new "toys/gadgets" - they can help us present a more engaging experience for the user, and for us presenters there is something fun and energizing in learning new technology, gear and techniques. Thanks for a quick overview of Ecamm and for some cool usage ideas! Happy Thanksgiving to you, Heather and the pups!
Happy Thanksgiving to you too! For work, I usually try and have at least one thing to look forward to every day (makes it easier), and often times that is using a new tool or finding a new system for doing things.
it's teachers like this that keep humanity going
Thank you!
Ecamm is Ah MAZE ING! The community is even better!
This is soooo helpful. I've had ecamm live for a couple years and can't believe I haven't used it - this got me excited!!! Thanks Tom
Sir, as a sales manager used to travel a lot and now locked in place, being capable of present the company, the product and the service in a professional but still interesting and at last not boring way start to become a matter of survival for many professional like myself.. thanks, your video and idea are helping me putting together a set up for my company to keep going even when it is impossible to travel.
I'm glad it's helpful! I'm also REALLY glad you're so determined to make your work interesting. The last thing anyone needs is another boring presentation 😁
This video (and several of your others) are so insanely helpful and clear for those of us starting on video creation/content journeys. Thanks so much, Tom!
Oh crap! Now I am diving really deep into The rabbit hole of Ecam live And live streaming 😂 Thanks again Tom! Sometimes I still wonder how it is possible for one RUclipsr to make all The videos I need about audio And video!
Haha, I love hearing this. It probably just means we think alike and have the same interests/questions/path when it comes to this stuff. 😁
Dude, you killed it. That blue backdrop and crispy side lens combo is mesmerizing.
Thank you! I've been trying to dial it in just the way I want it.
The virtual cam feature is also available for OBS, it's a bit more complex to setup but it's free
OBS is going upstanding, but I’m happy to pay for the simplicity of Ecamm. 😬
Yepp, but issues with BigSur right now, hope they'll fix it soon.
@@tombuck I had to install NDAs for OBS because it wasn’t recognizing the iPad with the usb cable. Will I have to install something on ecam if I want to use the iPad and iPhone as video capture source???
Thank you for the info. Great charisma and energy. Your students are lucky to have you for their teacher!
Thank you! This is so nice to hear!
The bokeh on your 🎸 neck is SICK cool! 2:02
Thanks! I like how the side light over there makes it stand out a little bit.
@@tombuck yeah, I like the overall look you have. Coming from event videography I'm new to controlled lighting. During quarantine I've been working on a little studio project an hour and a half from home. Bought a house, fixed it up, rented it out, put a 16 by 28 building there and just finished setting it up and started shooting. I love taking things to a new level with new gear :)
It's cool how well you have set up and created such a even blanket of exposure. When I was setting up this new location I learned fast the challenge of creating a set. So I really appreciate your work. It's very relevant to what I am working on. Got the Aputure 300x and ATEM mini pro recently too. Fun times! Really dig what you're doing, your killing it!
This is amazing Tom! So glad I found your channel! I’ve been using my Canon 70D for Zoom, and the EOS Webcam utility is much better than having to do CameraLive and Camtwist (without capture device). Great content, wish I was your student! Subscribed!! 💥💥👍
Thank you! I'm so glad it's been helpful!
Good info! Thank you!
Tom, I love your videos and I learn so much! I especially like that you take the time to answer questions in the comments! Thx so much for sharing your knowledge!!!
You’re welcome! I’m happy they’re helpful!
Tom, your content is always totally on point and provides tons of value!!! 👊🏼
Thank you!
I have been working hard on my virtual setup. Found your channel, you are awesome. Thank you for all your amazing content. I like your style
Thanks so much, I really appreciate the kind words.
Very helpful -- thank you!
I just love your videos, Tom. I learn SO much!
Thank you Kevin! I'm really happy to hear that 🙏
Amazing! Thanks so much for sharing.
I’m thankful, for the weekly Dad Jokes. Hahah. Have an awesome day!
My pleasure 🙏
Fantastic stuff Tom, glad I found your channel!
Me too!
Omg!!! Will you please come to my office and set this all up for me 🤣🤣🤣 seriously, this is an amazing tutorial, thanks so much I need to rewatch so I can take notes!
Haha, thank you so much! I'm happy it was helpful for you.
I use OBS a lot with Zoom and love it. Especially the price, free! This program looks a little more user friendly though. I might have to check it out.
It’s like OBS with a very user friendly mask on top of it.
Great stuff, Tom. I am building my scenes now. Going live with Ecamm, soon.
Awesome! I really want to dig in and go crazy with scenes.
Your content is top notch man. I'm glad I found the channel.
Thank you! I’m glad you found it too!
The Canon web cam utility software is now out of beta and works way better than the beta version. I’d have issues sometimes with the camera being seen by the computer sometimes but not anymore. It just loads up really quickly.
I saw that right after I made this video! I installed the official version yesterday 👍
Thank you so much for all the useful information Tom! Your channel is phenomenal, you are phenomenal!😀🔥🔥🔥
Thank you! Your comment is phenomenal! 🙌
@@tombuck Thank you Tom, I really appreciate it!😊
Great presentation, Tom! Thanks for sharing your expertise. Very informative.
Thank you! Glad it helped!
I got the apex base aswell. Connected my kessler ball head and quick release system. Great table top tripod.
It’s awesome- super super strong 💪
I'd love to see where the cameras were set up for this video. Awesome information, thanks so much!
I usually have my main camera with a 24mm lens in front of me about 3 feet away. The second camera with the 50mm lens is off to the side about 7 feet away.
Thanks for sharing these tips Tom!
You bet!
Thank you so much. Great video!
You're very welcome!
a very helpful video indeed thanks!, just wanted to know one more thing, while doing a session on Zoom through Ecam Live, can we go Live simultaneously on Facebook and RUclips (through restream) as well? and share the whole meeting with our viewers who are not part of that zoom meeting?
Yes you could! It would take a lot of processing power, but if your computer can handle it, you can use Ecamm as a Virtual Cam in Zoom for the meeting while simultaneously streaming. In theory you should also be able to use NDI.tv to make Zoom a source for Ecamm 🤔
Great Video Tom! I had no idea about any of this. 👍🏽👍🏽🙌🏽🙏🏼
It’s all super fun!
u gotta do more content ecamm! love it
It's great! They just released a massive update, so I'm hoping to dive into it with a few videos.
Thanks! This looks great! I've been using Manycam for my overlay software, but this looks way better!
It's a little pricey, but very much worth it if you do a lot of streaming.
Great video as always my friend!
This is a great video thank you
Glad it was helpful!
this sounds like it can do more than the Yolo box Pro. I'm interested in both, but will probably get neither...too expensive
for me. Thank you for the interesting videos.
Hi Tom. I really like your font on each your front page video. Seems like manual writing but very attractive
Thank you! It’s just my handwriting in Procreate on the iPad 👍
FANTASTIC Tom! As always!
Thank you sir!
Thanks Tom. Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃
This is a very exciting video for me! Seems like this software would solve a lot of the issues and shortcomings I wish I had with Zoom! Happy Thanksgiving!!!🦃🍽🍁
Happy Thanksgiving to you guys!
Good work 😉! Happy Turkey day. 🦃🦃
Happy Thanksgiving!
Great video! Always love the funny jokes throughout! Have a happy Thanksgiving
Happy Thanksgiving!
I AM SO HAPPY UPU MADE THIS AND NOW I AM MORE EDUCATED ABOUT THE PLATFORM. THEY SHOUDL GIVE U AN AFFILIATE LINK
Thank you! I did set up an affiliate link in the description, but there’s no obligation for anyone to use it.
Please do an ECamm tutorial. I’d pay for that. U r a good teacher. Thx.
I would love to do more Ecamm videos!
I'm a huge Ecamm user - even do a weekly show with them - and thought your overview was spot on.
One thing - the Canon M6 Mark II does have clean HDMI. That's my main live stream camera connected to a CamLink. Allows me to stream/output in 30fps/4k with AF.
Best
Oh wow, seems like the M6 is an underrated choice 😎
@@tombuck I've been OH so surprised how good it looks - despite the ridiculous buttons you can't use when the screen if flipped up.
Example of quality - I'm speaking at next week's VidFest Expo 2020 and we were doing a speaker run thru last night. After my turn someone said "Kevin what camera are you using...looks amazing." So there's that!
Enjoy your stuff dude!
That’s awesome to hear. Good luck!
This was fantastic! Thanks for this brother. Not sure if you've done any hardware videos on how you physically connect stuff. I'm doing a student moving up ceremony and will need mics, multiple cameras, sound system, music, the whole production. If you have I would love a link and sorry in advance if you have. I'm more interested in connecting a sound system and such.
I haven't made that video yet, but I've been thinking of it. I just don't know how to make it engaging and not just "10 minutes of guy connecting cables" 😁
I think the same features can be had with the new OBS, but Ecamm looks way more user friendly and self explaining..
Yep, OBS can do just about all of this, but the usability of Ecamm is so worth it, in my opinion.
@@belliefinest7917 totally agree. I hate subscription plans.
@@belliefinest7917 Technology moves too fast. You would immediately complain that your new iPhone wasn’t supported by the “perpetual” license you bought 6 months ago, and demand an update. As a software developer we have a three word description for people who won’t pay for ongoing development and support “not a customer”.
How can we use OBS like this?
What is the best free windows alternative?
Happy Thanksgiving! WeCam! Perfect! The way you present everything makes it all seems so easy and straight forward. Now I just have to learn not to stumble over my own words to do a concise livestream! (Editing is my friend, is there a way to edit in real time? 🤔)
That’s a tough one for sure haha! Thankfully ten years of teaching teenagers has helped me a little bit 😬
I teach using an ATEM mini Pro/Zoom with an iPad Pro into one of the channels, camera into another, Hyperdeck into the 3rd and MacBook Pro into the 4th. Personal taste I guess, but I think I can just about do everything you mentioned through this combo of hardware vs EcammLive.
I'm sure you can, that sounds like a super smart setup! The beauty of Ecamm is just its simplicity.
I use zoom to teach my class. I’m stepping it up with ecamm live. So I’m looking for more videos on zoom and ecamm.
Thank you, most of this was above my head, but appreciated the detail. How do adjust the video and audio if they do not synch when virtual camera goes into Zoom?
In Ecamm you can add a frame delay to your audio. 4-5 frames usually gets the job done 👍
big appreciated 💙
Wasn't all that interested in the title but here for the Dad jokes... WeCam! But I am interested now.
The plan works! 😬
Thanks for the video.
What would you suggest for doing remote interviews or group sessions?
That is other presenters are remote - and want to manage them.
This software or other methods? Would love to hear your input on that.
thanks again for the video.
Just as a heads up, you can also use your iPad to control the cam live all your special effects your overlays your videos and everything that goes with it. Give it a try and download the application on your iPad and watch and see you can control everything with your iPad.
Yes! I need to explore this more.
@@tombuck Hopefully if you do get it on your iPad, maybe you’ll do a vid about it. I just added more effects on EcammLive and refreshed the app on my iPad, and everything synced on the laptop.
Hey Tom. Love, love, love your videos and how passionate you are about teaching and communicating well.
Question: why do u use the Atem Mini when ECAMM can do all the switching as well? I'm curious how u compliment these two products.
Thanks for the kind words! Ecamm can switch scenes, but the ATEM is a 4 input capture card- that’s huge!
@@tombuck Yes, and that offloads the processing of the videos signals from the Mac to Atem. Also physical buttons are easier than the virtual ones on ECAMM.
Do you use Streamdeck? Care to share your thoughts of it fitting into your workflow?
I HAVE BEEN WAITING ON THIS VIDEO SIGH. REPECT GOES OUT TO YOU.
WE CAM! Dude, you are incredibly correct. Were you ever curious enough to explore why they passed on what seems so obvious? Is it because the marketing team's first language was not English? It's a possibility, right?
They're from the US Northeast, so it's a kind of English 😉
Very nice, thanks! Somewhere in there I think you mentioned recording a Zoom meeting using Ecamm instead of letting Zoom do it. Is that possible? And with the other person using Zoom too? Especially since everything looks much better recorded/streamed via Ecamm. Or did I miss something? Thanks again, enjoy! ☮️
Hello Tom, many thanks for your content! It has changed my game for teaching classical bass online. If you find time for my problems. Do you have any tutorials on how to reduce latency? I've been trying on my own but this specific issue I cannot solve. My gear: MacBook Air M1, Rodecaster pro 1+ Oktava mk mic, Elgato cam link + LumixG7. The built in camera is not good, but there is no latency ... The Lumix looks great with the exception of the latency :( Cheers!
Happy Thanksgiving darling! I’m so thankful for you and the life we have together. Thanks for being you! 🥰💜
Also, I liked all the different transitions in this video. Let’s make some cool graphics for The Couple’s Table!
I’m thankful for everything we’ve got, and I could have this channel without your support! 😍
@@tombuck wait... WHAT?
Tom. Love the videos. I saw a video of yours the other day and I’m having trouble finding it again. In the video you talked about where you bought your colored XLR cables. I remember you saying you would put a link in the description. I forgot to look for that link after I watched it. I want those cables!! Can you direct me to that video or the link to buy them?
Very helpful video, thank you! Maybe you explained this and I didn't understand, will Ecamm Live Pro improve the video quality of guests that I have on my Zoom meeting even if they are using their webcam? Also, I have a Canon 80d which only shoots 1080, Im guessing I cant get the benefits of 4k with Ecamm unless I upgrade my camera? Thank you!
Always love your videos Tom. And yes, your dumb puns, because... puns! I thought I would mention that Nikon has a similar ability to capture via USB cable on all the Z series cameras and have for most of the year.
That's great to hear- I'm so unfamiliar with Nikon, but I know the Z series is really underrated.
@@tombuck Yeah, my Z7 is amazing. I shoot music videos and portraits with it and it's "terrible" auto focus has never failed me, even in low light and even when using my older G glass with the adapter.
Love the vids Tom! Keep up the great work. +1 SUB
Thank you 🙏
Great video and very helpful! What is your hardware set-up in addition to the Atem mini? Specifically, I am wondering how many things you have plugged into your MacBook Pro and if running out of of ports is a challenge. Do you ever use a hub for certain inputs?
Ports are definitely limited. I’ve been using the M1 Mac Mini for about a month now. The ATEM and Rodecaster are connected to the back, along with a USB hub and external display. The hub has 4 USB ports, sd card slots, and an internal hard drive. It’s basically the same setup I had on my MacBook with a slightly different adapter.
@@tombuck Tom, thanks for your fast reply! I currently have an older MacBook Pro that does not have USB-C adapters, so it has been hard to find a hub for it. I am thinking about getting a Mac Mini M1 with 16GB ram and either the 256GB or 512GB hard drive, so I would be curious which one your got and how you like it. I also think I will need a hub on it as well, so let me know if you have any recommendations. I am a speaker and coach and plan on using this set-up for online courses and streaming. My wife is also a teacher, so I plan on getting this researched and tested out, so she can use the finished product as well! Thanks again for your authenticity and sharing great videos and information!
Between your amazing set up and great puns 😂, your classes must be EPIC 🔥.
When you’re running your classes, how do you maintain eye contact with your audience while balancing multiple screens, monitoring the audience, and sharing a presentation?
Thanks Karla! Eye contact can be tricky. Through RUclips I've gotten used to treating the camera as a person and keeping my focus primarily on it. I do use a teleprompter as a monitor sometimes if I really want to be efficient. Otherwise I try and keep the camera positioned close to my main screen so even when I look away it's not too distracting.
@@tombuck Now that remote work seems to be the norm, I’ve been looking for ways to level up my zoom meetings, but it feels so unnatural to stare at the camera rather than the people in the meeting. In the meantime I’ll try the streaming software that you shared in this vid. Thanks for the tips Tom! 🙌
This looks like a fantastic tool. Thanks for sharing. I can't justify $32/mo to add some graphic overlays to one or two Teams meetings a month, but I'll keep it in mind if I need it more often.
It's definitely a big investment, but it can be an absolute life saver. And it's worth noting that since you can also just record directly into Ecamm, it can really speed up the production process.
@@tombuck I don't do any recording. Just looking to enhance my Teams calls. LOL
I love OBS but the user interface is a real pain in the arse sometimes. This looks interesting for when I am playing around with my Mac. Thanks for covering this, Happy Thanksgiving if you celebrate!
Happy Thanksgiving! I’ve used OBS for years and really appreciate all it offers, especially for free. But I’ve also spent so much time troubleshooting and bug fixing that I just appreciate Ecamm that much more.
Hey Tom! I love your content, and I use ecamm with zoom just the way you explained. I can’t understand from the video your Mac model though.... is it a Mac book pro?
Yes, it’s a 16” 2019 MacBook Pro.
Do you have a Streamdeck? That's the next level, combined with Ecamm scenes - I'd love to see what you could come up with for that.
I do and I want to bring it into the setup, but I’m running out of USB ports!
@@tombuck Then might I suggest a Caldigit TB3 dock?
Ooh, I’ll look into it. 👍
@@tombuck Aaron is spot on....
Well done
Thank you!
excellent video, you are an usual youtuber because you dont strecht shit out. Thank you so much. One Question: My Zoom recordings are sometimes (?) really bad video quality. Why not use the E-camm recording - this shoudl provide better quality, right?
Yep, Ecamm recordings are great quality, but they won’t include anyone else in the meeting, just your audio and video.
Awesome video! Do you find that using the ATEM mini takes some load off of your computer and keeps the fan from turning on? I’m using an Elgato capture card and Ecamm and if I open zoom my 16in MacBook Pro fan goes nuts
I think it does take a lot of to an extent, but Zoom always makes my computer’s fans go insane no matter what 🤷🏻♂️
Awesome video Tom. Do you write a script and use a teleprompter when you make these RUclips videos ?
Always so clear and concise - keep up the fantastic videos!
Thank you! I usually have an outline with bullet points and just wind it. For this video, I kind of just did a step by step of the
Recess with no script or anything. I usually only use the prompter if it’s a super technical review or something along those lines with really specific points to hit 👍
@@tombuck thanks for the quick reply! Very helpful for a new creator like myself. Have a great thanksgiving.
You too! 🦃
Thanks for that awsome content, i want to buy a new camera to get great video quality and also use it as a webcam! What camera do you recomend in a range of 500 to 1000 usd!
The Canon M50 has a huge following, but if you can swing it, I'd recommend the EOS RP since it has a better lens mount and full frame sensor. Canon even sells it as part of a "webcam bundle."
I've also got a few friends who use the Sony a6400 with Sigma 16mm lens and their video quality is outstanding.
Great video once again!
Do you know if you can bring zoom comments into ecamm the same way you can with youtube and facebook comments?
People like seeing their own comments and questions on screen. Thanks again!
As far as I know, there’s no way, but I would LOVE to do that during my classes since most of my students respond via comment.
@@tombuck Just to follow up; I figured a work around for showing Zoom comments through ecamm. I created a scene with a screenshare and camera overlay, and you can bring in the the zoom chat window. It shows all comments and not individual ones, but lots of cases that will work.
I also discovered that sounds made in ecamm don't route through to zoom. So sound effects, music, and videos through ecamm aren't heard in zoom. I may have it wrong though!
BTW I see your comments on Peter Greggs channel as well! It's great that you encourage all his work!
Thanks!
Can you provide a link to the PolarPro Apex tripod? Not finding it. Thanks. I'm a college prof and your videos really help.
It looks like you’ve got to get it from PolarPro directly: www.polarprofilters.com/products/apex-minimalist-tripod-base
It worked! I owe you a beer.
Haha, cheers! 🍻
I am awaiting an M1 Mac mini to arrive and going to run Ecamm for zoom training. I have Ecamm now but it and zoom running my MPP sounds like it is going to take off with the fan noise. I really hate it. I would like to keep my MacBook Pro as a second machine as an input signal through Ecamm. I assume I would need elgato stream deck or Atem mini for that. Great video as always.
Oh man, I bet the M1 will handle this really well! I'm convinced my MacBook will one day lift off like a helicopter while it's fans go crazy during Zoom.
Very interesting! I have been streamyard all the way back to their beta days. This has some upside, for sure
Both services are great: Streamyeard wins for simplicity, Ecamm wins for versatility.
@@tombuck does Ecam work well with Meets? We do not use zoom
That glass console table in back is very nice. What kind it is?
It’s from Target. Not sure if they still make them but I love it 😁
Okay this is great! So I want to go live with atem mini pro but also have a guest in there while live via Zoom or whatever can bring a guest in. What is the best way to do it??
Ecamm's Pro Plan has an Interview feature, which works really well.
Hey Tom, love the video as usual! Great job. One important question: what do you think about the Atem Mini vs Atem Mini Pro vs Atem Mini Pro ISO?
That's a good question. I got the base model because it had all the features I needed, but in general, I think the Pro is the best balance between price/features. The ISO seems a bit overkill, and I'd probably move to one of the higher end options if I really needed those capabilities.
@@tombuck Thank you as always! Sincerely appreciated the feedback!
You are great
So are you! 🙏
Thank you. Do not you know some good performance tool for a screen sharing with the ability to give a remote control to students so they can perform some tasks on my computer? Zoom has it but it has a delay.
Great video! Is ECamm compatible with a pc? If not, what could you suggest?
Ecamm is Mac Only- I believe closest PC options would be OBS or Wirecast 🤔
lol the Wecamm joke had me laughing out loud!
Great video. Your shot looks terrific. BTW... eCamm will see the Canon WITHOUT the utility! I discovered this by accident after uninstalling the utility. eCamm told me yes... it's in their coding. Canon couldn't explain why. Also... when using the utility for Zoom, if you're trying to use a second camera or your webcam, when you cut away from the Canon to the webcam, the Canon will close its mirror. Then, when you got back to the Canon, you get 1/2 second or so of black before the mirror goes up and the camera comes on.
Great tips! And very interesting 🤔
Thank-you for this video. I use Ecamm and Zoom for workshops and am having trouble getting the PiP to work when I use a pdf overlay. Have you ever had that issue? Also do you offer consulting?
I haven't had any issues once the scenes are set up. My problem is that I often forget to lock the scenes and then accidentally move stuff around while I'm live 😬
Based on the thumbnails, I was expecting some kind of Ecamm new zoom feature, so you could create a close up view (or cropped 4K to 1080p close look) to make your classes more dynamic without extra cameras ;) Nice video!
You can do that with Ecamm since it allows to you crop and reframe camera inputs. You can save the crop and regular shots as separate scenes and swap between them 👍

So you're getting me excited about the possibility of trying Ecamm as a new workflow!
Previously I was using Screenflow when doing a combination of screencapture and showing myself on camera. But this looks like it will give me more options...
So if you're doing a screencapture recording using ecamm, is it possible to have two separate files, one file for your screencapture and 1 file for your webcam file? Then you can go back and swap back and forth between the two files as you see fit?
Or do you have to make that decision on the fly as you record w/ ecamm?
Also, when you turned on the new camera at 10:32, the colors don't look nearly as vibrant and amazing as the rest of this video. Is that because of a certain setting you're using for the other cameras to get your colors to pop and look so good?
I keep getting all fired up about new possibilities as I keep watching your videos, thank you!!
Ecamm is amazing! My wife does all of her screen shares for everything directly in it, and I’ve been doing it more and more too. But you only get the one file, not separate sources.
As for the colors, I adjusted colors on the regular footage, but Ecamm was straight from the camera. I do have a video about how to create custom LUTs to adjust your image in Ecamm, and you can download mine for free in that video. 👍
Hi, Tom, What lens and the camera setting for this video, look so nice and sharp. Great content.
It's my trusty EOS R and Sigma 24mm 1.4 👍
Great video, one thing you forget to mention was the audio input setting in zoom, is it the atem mini audio or ecamm has some type of audio virtual cable?
Currently Ecamm doesn't have virtual audio, so you would need to select your source separately in Zoom.
@@tombuckHey Tom, thank you for the response, in that case, if you play some video within a scene, what is the setting in zoom to capture that audio? Maybe share computer audio at the time you share screen in zoom?
