Create a webinar
Set up a live, branded webinar in Videospan, choose a recording layout, and invite speakers and viewers with a link.
A webinar is a live session that runs entirely in the browser, and Videospan records it for you. Speakers join with a guest link, your audience watches with a watch link, and neither needs a Videospan account.
Steps
- Select Create in the top bar, then choose Group Recording (Webinar).
- Enter a Title, such as Product Roadmap Live Q&A.
- Optionally, set a Scheduled start. It's for reference only: you start the session yourself from the webinar room.
- Optionally, choose a Campaign and a Brand template for the live scenes and recording.
- Choose a Recording layout:
- Grid shows everyone at equal size.
- Spotlight features one speaker at a time.
- Picture-in-picture shows a full frame with an inset.
- Choose a Tile shape: 16:9, 1:1 or 3:4.
- Select Create webinar. The lobby opens, where you can check your camera and microphone.
- Select Copy guest link and send it to your speakers, and Copy watch link for your audience.
Good to know
- Your recording has a home. Videospan creates a collection named after the webinar, and its recordings, clips and guest uploads all land there.
- Layouts can change live. The host can switch between Grid and Spotlight during the session. Picture-in-picture stays fixed for the whole session.
- Start when you're ready. Select Join session in the lobby when it's time to go live.
