Check your network speed

When live streaming, if the network rotation speed is not enough, the video will not be delivered smoothly. There are two types of network line speeds: "downlink speed" for downloading and "uplink speed" for uploading, but what is important in live streaming is upload, that is, "uplink speed".

It is better to have a "bps (bits per second)" that indicates how many bits of data can be transmitted in one second, which is actually measured at 6 Mbps or more. If it falls below 3 Mbps, the distribution will be interrupted, and even if you manage to deliver it, it will be like a choppy frame feed, making the video difficult to watch.

Check if you can connect with a wired LAN

Live streaming of videos can also be done on Wi-Fi, which is one of the wireless LANs, but wired LAN is the first in terms of stability. Especially when streaming from a place where the network line speed is 3~6Mbps, you can reduce the risk of interruption of live streaming by checking whether there is a wired LAN.

Check if there is equipment that makes it easy to synthesize the background

You can edit the background in real time even in live streaming, but if you have a blue or green background "chroma key effect" that is the opposite color of human skin color, it is easy to process "chroma key" that synthesizes the background image. You can also turn the background into a video, and you can also share your computer screen, expanding the range of expression.

In the rental studio, you can not only stream on your smartphone, but also use multiple cameras and add logos and tickers. It's helpful to check the equipment and wiring available.

Check if the soundproofing is in place

If there is noise in important moments, the quality of the video will suffer. Even in a normally quiet place, sounds such as emergency vehicle sirens and emergency radios can be heard, so it is important to find a studio with soundproofing.

One of the benefits of live streaming and recording in the studio is that the quality of the audio is much higher. It's a good idea to check if you have any equipment that can adjust the audio, and what the performance of your microphones, amplifiers, and mixers is.

staff

When using multiple equipment such as cameras and microphones and editing videos, it is better to have a professional staff member who can operate and edit the video during the stream.
