Thankfully, we haven’t had to do that yet, but since we have it, I’ve been putting it to use for small events.

We sort of panic-bought one when this virus was just coming around in our area, in case we needed to be able to do a portable live stream off-campus. I can change scenes in OBS and even have transport control of the AJA Ki Pro, all remotely!Įnter Zoom! And a Blackmagic ATEM Mini! The ATEM Mini is a relatively new device, it’s basically a small portable video switcher. I press the button here, the command goes over the VPN to the switcher, and I get visual feedback from the video conference call with Zoom. But getting a monitoring feed in real time with audio was a challenge, especially when we have several Netflix, YouTube, and Disney+ streams going! I made a page that allows me to do basic cuts between the sources on the switcher. I’m able to control the video router (Blackmagic VideoHub), video switcher (Ross Carbonite), recording equipment (AJA KiPros), and of course OBS. With the private VPN, I have Companion 2.0 running on my laptop with a Streamdeck XL as a control surface.

I can screen share to all my computers and use terminal windows to control nearly everything. From a networking standpoint, it’s as if I’m there. We have a private VPN connection that I can use at my house with my workstation, which is great because it allows me to access all of the internal network devices at the church while I’m at home. When that happened, I came up with a workflow that would allow me to run video production equipment housed at the church, from my house, in the event that I couldn’t get to the facility, like a few weeks ago when I had to stay isolated waiting on the results of a COVID-19 test (it was negative). One significant change is that the church I work at has told everyone to stay home and only be in the office when doing a task that can only be done there. Being with my family more is really nice. Since the Coronavirus pandemic has shut everything down, like everyone, my whole schedule and routine has changed.
