Wanna be a video star? Who needs a webcam, anyway...
I hear this all the time, "I want to webcam comments, but I don't have a webcam."
Truth is, a webcam is just a dedicated camera for uploading short videos. Any camera will serve the same purpose -- even your digital still camera can do the trick if it has a video mode.
Sure, it's one extra step. You have to record your video, then copy it to your desktop, and then upload it. Webcams roll all of that into one step, but it can still be done. As Duncan points out in his post, even many pro live streamers use a pro camera or an old digital camcorder to do this sort of thing.
But that's just the basics. He also covers everything from streaming to distribution, while tossing in some interesting software suggestions.
Our Current:News team is looking for webcam...scratch that, video responses to feature in Current:News pods. So fire up your webcam/digital camcorder/still cam and upload your responses is video form. You just might find yourself in an upcoming Current:News TV broadcast.
