jimboco2006

Vinyl Vinnie
(10:50) Now this is spooky

Joe_at_AlphaCreative
(10:55) Is this a green screen?

Świat Seby
(11:23) This is cool!

Anonym AT
(12:11) Your hand cutting off at the greenscreen edge is spooky @Aaron Parecki

Eric Likness
(12:24) That's the best! OMG.

Bailey Stone
(12:31) @Aaron Parecki Can you come to Australia???

ko ko
(12:52) A VVitch at work ❤️‍🔥

Michael Andreas
(14:04) Photo Joseph needs a lower third for the desk.

Eric Likness
(15:31) Alex Pettit's studio is brilliant too.

Chris Lai
(16:18) @Aaron Parecki you turned into a ghost at @PhotoJoseph’s studio…..

Joe_at_AlphaCreative
(17:01) @Aaron Parecki how much time did you spend tracing those foregrounds?

Eric Likness
(31:44) Curtis's studio is pretty recognizable too.

BensTechLab
(31:47) The better the foreground layer, the more convincing the overall effect!

Bailey Stone
(31:58) @Here to Record hey John, you better make sure those Studio cameras are still there...

Chris S
(32:07) @Aaron Parecki Alex's was worth the work it looks great

Curtis Judd
(32:15) Wow, Aaron! Welcome to my studio!

Vinyl Vinnie
(32:23) @Aaron Parecki looks a bit like photojoseph is doing something to your hair

Bailey Stone
(32:28) I didnt know there was such a thing as an "unproper PNG"

Geert M
(32:36) @aaron parecki i think you could use mixeffect + companion to set the flying key

Adam Tow
(33:11) @Aaron Parecki if you're using MixEffect with Companion, I have added ability to control granular settings for things like Flying Key, Mask, Position, Size.

PhotoJoseph
(33:57) ROAD TRIP!

Bailey Stone
(34:20) @PhotoJoseph that ATEM stuff was so cool! It was a very entertaining and enriching replay to watch.

PhotoJoseph
(34:39) LOL this is awesome. So funny to see Aaron in my studio. Gotta do this for real one day!

Mikhail Nagaitsev
(34:46) no reflections 🙂

Dean Cullen
(35:20) @Aaron Parecki how are you able to blend in so good to each background. Also lighting is class 🙌🏻

Andre Yanco
(38:18) @Aaron Parecki Also the hairlight gives it away especially when you have that background

Philip Meuschke
(43:57) Time to start a #RoadTripFund, in order to help all of our favorite YouTubers get together for a fun gathering (that you then hopefully film and/or stream, so that the rest of us can then join you all virtually)!! 🛣🚙

Bailey Stone
(45:26) I second the previous SuperChat notion!

Mikhail Nagaitsev
(51:01) camera looks more blury than background somehow

Eric Likness
(53:58) Automation works! Companion for the win.

Randy Dees
(54:59) @Aaron Parecki lights too large

Bailey Stone
(55:19) @Aaron Parecki WOW! That is trippy!

Eric Likness
(55:25) That is Soo creepy

Marcin Nowak
(55:46) @Aaron Parecki green screen use can be seen on the hair

Eric Likness
(1:06:12) Kudos to the old skool, Pshop selection/masking skilz!

Philip Meuschke
(1:09:26) @Aaron Parecki - The very slight delay between the two layers is hilarious as well, when you reach out to touch your own hand.

Marcin Nowak
(1:10:09) @Aaron Parecki maybe because the green screen is not lit evenly?

PhotoJoseph
(1:12:32) Gotta go, love this! Super fun, have a great weekend folks!

Trevor Bagnell
(1:12:45) You're still getting a lot of green spill fringing around your hair due to green screen lighting

Darin Land
(1:13:40) The subtle tree movement in Lela's background is a nice touch.

Bailey Stone
(1:20:06) 1 hour mark achieved! Can we go for two?

Andre Yanco
(1:20:16) @Aaron Parecki So... Now that you have mastered all of that green screen stuff, you can now dismantle the unneeded studio gear, and just keep a green screen setup 🙂

Turning Point Communications
(1:20:38) Opps!! Forgot the BST changes in UK!! David

Graham Rule
(1:21:25) Oops. I forgot that the US doesn't change from Summer Time for another week.

Graham Rule
(1:21:48) @Aaron Parecki You could have removed the flame and added another with Fusion's particles.

MT Steuerung
(1:22:00) In Germany Clock canges last night ..

Mark Donnery
(1:22:19) @aaron parecki. I am a bit behind in the stream. I need to light a studio. What lights do you recommend COB’s light panels? Have you tried GVM.

Graham Rule
(1:24:54) That's unrealistic. There's no way there's sun shining in the window of John's tiny house at this time of night. 🙂

Bailey Stone
(1:25:08) The hour ahead in Australia is really handy. Show starts at 4AM instead of 3AM.

Bailey Stone
(1:25:30) @Aaron Parecki neutral colour? You mean not the bright pink jacket?

Turning Point Communications
(1:25:37) So looking forward to watching beginning of this stream - such great fun!!

Trevor Bagnell
(1:25:51) Can happen when the green screen is too bright, you get the green reflecting off it and onto the subject.

Philip Meuschke
(1:26:29) @Aaron Parecki - Except you need to pull out your colorful jacket today because you've reached 25K subscribers!! 🥳

Chris Lai
(1:26:45) Q: have you decided what to do with 25k?

Bailey Stone
(1:27:19) @Aaron Parecki Ahh yes, congrats for 25K subs! Amazing and totally deserving. On that topic, do you ever get annoyed that you have 25K subs yet only a couple hundred tune into the livestreams?

Fleety Le Bunga
(1:27:50) 25K is a great milestone, congrats

Turning Point Communications
(1:27:54) Q. It seems that the Elgato screen is very good in low light?

Bailey Stone
(1:28:25) When I saw the title for the stream, I was so confused about how you were going to do that, now I know.

Pat Richard
(1:28:35) @Aaron Parecki Did my first streaming and recording event last week. Thanks for all the tips. Realized controlling 2 PTZ cameras on someone pacing back and forth (plus switching) isn't that easy.

Philip Meuschke
(1:29:04) You need to have a bubbly/boozy livestream again to celebrate your 25K! 😂🤣🍾🥂

Eric Likness
(1:29:21) Digital Video Effects are cool

BensTechLab
(1:29:25) @Aaron Parecki not a knock on your setup - but I have my Atem Mini green screen dialed in more than yours. The Atem Mini is quite good but you can spend a lot of time tweaking settings and lights...

BensTechLab
(1:30:43) Having super even and soft lighting really helps green screen. also increasing your shutter speed a little will help cover the motion blur green.

MT Steuerung
(1:31:19) The next on Aarons Wishlist for Christmas is the Ultimatte by BMD ..

Eric Likness
(1:31:35) For the minimal viable green screen, I'm sold. This was good enough for me.

Graham Rule
(1:31:42) @Aaron Parecki At an event last week I gave up keeping track of the speaker pacing around - just switched to a wide view. Then reframed them in Davinici for the recorded version.

Fleety Le Bunga
(1:32:36) It looks great, i work with a 6x8m green screen every day, your lighting works very well

Trevor Bagnell
(1:32:58) @Aaron Parecki would you say you almost always stream off the ATEM directly instead of feeding it into OBS and streaming from OBS?

Philip Meuschke
(1:34:05) @Pat Richard - I feel your pain. I do AV for a church, so anytime we have a pastor who walks around while preaching, I have to stay on top of our PTZ controller.

MT Steuerung
(1:34:18) Great decision @Graham Rule .. the other would be a Tracking Camera like the Huddlecam

Philip Meuschke
(1:36:53) @Aaron Parecki - Can you give those of us who are still here a sneak preview/teaser for next week? 😉

Graham Rule
(1:37:20) @Aaron Parecki Thanks for an interesting half hour. I'll go back and watch the first hour now. 😀

Bailey Stone
(1:37:45) Can I quickly squeeze in a last question: Do you have a macro or some comments that you normally do. Like your website?

Chris S
(1:38:14) @Aaron Parecki Happy Halloween & Congrats on 25K

WutrUduin?
(1:38:25) Congrats on 25k!

Steve Shannon, Broker
(1:38:29) 25k congrats!!!

Trevor Bagnell
(1:38:36) ROADTRIP!

Noel Del Pilar
(1:39:01) Congrats for the 25K! Yeah!
