What is a webinar?
A webinar (A) is a place to assemble hosts and participants. Whether you are configuring, designing, or streaming content, a webinar is the place where it all occurs. Remember to collaborate and prepare hosts so any webinar will have a flawless delivery.
What is a Lobby?
Lobby (B) is the place where participants wait for video content to appear. The lobby can be visually adapted to your brand, it also has a countdown to aid your audience in understanding when a video stream will appear, and the activated interactive features such as Chat and CTA (call to action) are available in the lobby.
What is a studio?
A tiny yet important detail is the Webinar Setup overlay. This is what type of webinar is expected to appear in the lobby once live. The default alternative, called studio (C) is used to stream video, and audio and to share screen/presentation. It is also possible to stream a pre-recorded video or RTMP. The overlay is only visible for hosts.
What is on-demand?
At the bottom of the Webinar Setup overlay is the button End Webinar (D), this is how to activate the on-demand mode and access the recording of a webinar.
Quite straightforward, right? It is now time to get started creating your first webinar. Not sure what webinar to create? Check out some inspiration.
