Hi!

So, I did my first live stream session today on the free version! Yay! I'm so happy! I'm looking to see if I can create a virtual set that mimicks the traditional presentation in large screen with the speaker in the corner type of setup. The current vMix virtual sets are really made for TV, but I'm looking for something a little bit more... homely.

Does this make sense?

Any help assistance would be appreciated!

Can be done with a simple virtual set (is basically multilayer anyway), also with a simple overlay (can actually set your overlay like that as PIP)

To start almost free you can use these tools.
1. Chromacam or XSplit Vcam to remove the background (20$)
2. Download a nice looking Background or create something fancy with UE4 (free). Please, no copyright violation if you don't own the rights.

Done

A homely green background will work too :-)

So I ended up going the PIP route. Thank you for the help!

When persons do not read help files, or do internet searches, they always come on forums and ask questions to simple things, and then do not even try to help themselves.....

I do many virtual sets for myself so simple....I look for a nice background image...most times i take photos from my own country, some I take myself or download,...then I look for an image to put in front of that, usually an image with a window, as I like the scenery shots in my my virtual sets,...then, I skip a layer, and look for a desk image to put in front of my talent, and sometimes I add plants to that front image....I do some editing in Photoshop to clean up anything I do not want.....I open a blank virtual set, and put in my images, and where I skipped a layer, I use that for my talent ( the person (s)) with the keyed out green screen...and I have a well done homemade virtual set...I never use those that came with vMix, or any other program....I like my things to be more personalized.....
There are so many videos on line to show how to create virtual sets....
