Tutorial Videos: Video tutorials explaining how to set up countdown timers in vMix, Ecamm, and OBS
Here's a video preview of this design. This is the pink & purple version, but you can choose green & blue in the drop-down menu above.
The duration of the timer can be adjusted to whatever length you require inside vMix, Ecamm, or OBS and you can change the font of both the timer and the text above. You can also change the wording of the text above the timer.
If you use streaming software other than vMix, Ecamm, or OBS you can still use the animation (providing your software supports .mov), but you will need to create, and add your own timer and text.
This animation has been designed to be placed on top of your streaming video so that your audience gets a LIVE preview before your actual show starts. For that reason, it includes around 70% black opacity which will darken the video below and allow the dots animation and clock to shine!
You could also place a static image behind the countdown timer (instead of providing a preview) but we find we get better engagement when our viewers can see something happening in the background.
Important: You can NOT use this countdown in StreamYard or Restream Studio because they do not support videos with alpha transparency.
