Pretty darn straight forward this one and it’s really easy when you think about it, so I’m just gonna put down the steps how I made mine..
- make a 1280x720 or 1920x1080 animated file (I used keynote)
- make the background of that green
- load it into obs as a source video file, right click filter, genlock it out
- make sure it’s above all other sources
- create a text layer to fit your design, I use dynamic text
- update your text to suit on the screen, change the background wallpaper
- go to the tray bar, capture a gif with cloudapp (Mac)
- draw out over the top of the preview area
- do some movement, click start, find the stop button ;)
- cloud app auto uploads to the cloud, copies a url to clipboard
- I save that image locally or you could just use in a post
Told you it was easy, you can really do many things with this method and I’m hoping to get into some practical applications of this today because I’m going to be making an integrated news viewer and potentially a mockup for video chat so people can join me while I’m tinkering with things live.
I’m also available for custom work if anyone wants to hire me to build them out an OBS layout and can be paid in SBD if you looking for something super custom, I think once you see my other ideas you’ll start to see how a valuable design and layout can really lift your live streams! :)
