Church Sound University (CSU) online training, which mirrors the popular in-person training program that focuses on the essentials of worship audio, has added a new in-depth streaming course led by instructor Samantha Potter, and it’s immediately available here.

Platforms | Facebook Live, YouTube, Vimeo, Instagram, Zoom & Church Website
Types | One-to-One, Multistream & Inter-streaming
Streaming Providers | OBS, VMix, Living As One (Resi), StreamMonkey, StreamYard, Restream.io

Video For Streaming | Video Formats, Camera Intro, Framing Basics, A Note On Lighting

Assessment quizzes are offered after each training segment so that students can review their progress, and if necessary, they can review the segment again to be sure of their understanding.
Instructor Samantha Potter is an active worship tech educator noted for a highly relevant and practical curriculum. She has also served as a sound design consultant and IT media supervisor for the houses of worship market, and currently works with console manufacturer Allen & Heath.
