The Univid Studio is the easiest way to go live - using just a webcam, having guest speakers join, and be able to choose how you want the live stream to look.

You start the Univid Studio by simply pressing the button "Webinar studio".

If there is already a studio started, the button will say "Join studio".

Choose your webcam and mic. Then press "Join" to enter the studio.
​

If you need to change the settings for your webcam or mic you can do it at anytime from within the studio.

To change the webcam or mic settings: Simply press the small arrow icon beside the mic or video icon.

To mute your mic or hide your video: If you want to mute mic or video, you can simply press the mic or video icon.

Now that we know how to change our own settings, we can also go into how to change the overall studio settings, such as layouting, studio background, and pinning speakers.

Share your screen inside the webinar studio, by pressing the "Share" button in the bottom bar.

Then you can choose either to share:

If you have not already, you can learn about how to invite other guest speakers or admins to join you in the studio.

You are now ready to go live for the audience. Press the button "go live" and you will now be visible for the audience.

The live stream will now replace the countdown and your splash image.

Let's now look at how to produce the webinar using the Univid Studio's more advanced settings.

You can find the advanced Studio settings under the button "Menu" in the top left corner. These settings are shared by everyone in the studio, so using this menu you can act as a producer changing what is visible in the studio, and how it looks.

Press "Menu" to open up the settings.

Here you can do things like:

Depending on what your webinar looks like you might want to highlight either the slides, or a speaker - or different things at different times.

Using the Layouts you can change how the Studio looks. It's reflected in real time for the other people in the studio, and the attendees.

A grid of speakers and screen share.

Good for: Multiple speakers where focus shifts between slides to speakers, larger panels.

A panel of speakers presenting on the side, overlaying a big screen share.

Good for: screen sharing, product demo, focus on the slides or screen share.

PS. The big background window could also be a slide, shared video, or another speaker.

Two speakers presenting side by side.

Good for: panel discussion, live podcast, focus on the speakers.

A big presentation without speaker video.

Good for: sections of webinars where the full focus should be on the slides or screen share. You can still have a speaker talking to the slides of course - they just won't be visible in this layout.

In the Studio menu you can also change the studio background - meaning an image replacing the boring black color behind the video bubbles or screenshare.

Simply toggle the "Background" setting on in the Layout section.

And then choose the studio background you like - either from the gallery or upload your own.

As an admin you can pin other speakers easily by pressing the "Pin" button next to their name in the Studio menu.

This will make them appear in focus - meaning on top, or in the biggest window - depending on your video layout.

In the Studio menu you can also adjust the camera and mic of other speakers.

For example, you can mute a speaker that forget to mute themselves after finishing their presentation.

If you have audiences on other platforms, you can use the Univid webinar studio to re-stream your webinar. For example, to LinkedIn or Youtube.
