Your learning journey


Your pathway to becoming a Remote Presentation Hero is made of 10 steps that can be grouped into two macro parts. 
  • Steps 1-6: in the first part we’ll learn the OBS building blocks, how to set-up the audio and beautify the presentation with effects and animations
  • Steps 7-10: the second part focuses on designing your OBS Studio session with the Remote Presentation Canvas and creating a presentation of your choice by applying what you have learnt.

Course outline

Let's have a look in detail at the content of each Step.

Step 1: Your learning journey
This section, and you are already half way through. Not bad! ;-)

Step 2: OBS Studio 101
We'll start with the fundamentals, learning what OBS Studio is and what it can do for you. We'll install it, familiarize with the Graphic User Interface and already produce your first presentation with logo and lower third that you can already use at your next videocall.

Step 3: Learning the building blocks
You will learn OBS building blocks and practice with all the elements that will allow you to create an engaging presentation. Cameras, media, graphic elements, screen capture and much more.

Step 4: Spice up your presentation with effects
Here you'll learn how to apply effects (in OBS they are called filters)

Step 5: Set up your audio, properly
The visual part is very important, but even more important in a video call is the audio (I'm sure you've heard this before ;-)). That's why Step 5 is fully dedicated to setting up the audio.

Step 6: Add movement with scene transitions
You'll learn how to add movement to your scenes and animate your graphic elements

By now you will have learnt (almost) everything about OBS. But a tool is a tool and it is as good as the use we make of it. You're now ready to work on your presentation, but before jumping into a trial and error creation process, let's invest the time to design the session.

Step 7: Design your session with the Remote Presentation Canvas
Close OBS, take a pen and the canvas and sketch your presentation

Now that you know what you want to create, it's time to execute!

Step 8: Create your presentation
This is where everything comes together. You will learn how to build scenes for the most common use cases, like for example a "Starting soon" scene with a countdown, a second camera scene for a overhead product tutorial, a scene with a whiteboard for graphic facilitation and much more. You'll get inspired and receive the instruments to create anything your creativity can imagine.

Your presentation is now ready. Everything you've done so far was to prepare it. It's now time to deliver it live to your audience! 

Step 9: Deliver the presentation live to your audience
Here you'll learn the best practices to run your live show.

Step 10: You are the hero!
Congratulations, it's now time to grab your badge and certificate! But the learning doesn't stop here! Continue your journey by actively participating in the community.
