My Live Streaming Story
In January 2017, I joined Twitch as an active member. I went around and found many videos on games I was interested in or just to find certain channels and users to connect with. As I got to know many different channels, part of me wanted to make a live stream just to say that I did. I went for some amount of time talking about doing a live stream some day. But on May 14, 2017; a dream was finally realized, as I made my first attempt at a live stream.
The software I used in creating this live stream is Open Broadcaster Software (or OBS) Studio. I tried my hand at making certain elements before coming up with my first ever live stream. I then wanted to title my first live stream as my "Live Stream Dream." Or in this age of social media, I stylized it as #LiveStreamDream . I used my Turtle Beach Recon 60P gaming headset to hear myself recording as well as to record using the detachable microphone. The end result was a live stream that served as my first foray into the realm of live stream. Since I wanted to gain as much visibility and involvement, I decided to join Restream.io to simulcast my streams to both Twitch and YouTube.
You can view my first-ever live stream here. Pick either service to view my video on Twitch or YouTube:
Even if you don't view the entire video, there is one serious flaw to the video. The biggest flaw is that the video is excessively slow, especially going to the monitor capture using OBS Studio. The audio is still fine. I am keeping this video for historical purposes. However, I have stated that this is a learning experience for me. So this will not stop me from attempting more live streams if I choose to do so.
I may look to make more live streaming material in the future. I want to try to make this work. Your support helps and encourages me.

The John Marine Stream is Born!
As of today (May 16, 2017), I decided to officially name my live stream content as "The John Marine Stream." I will use the social media hashtag of #JMStream to note my live streaming content. So I will be offering these links once I go live.
Also as of today, I have not yet decided on a logo or some graphics to note the creation of my live stream content. However, I will go outside of my usual style and go with the official colors of red and purple with my live stream work. Why red and purple? Well, it is to note the colors of YouTube (red) and Twitch (purple). Since I am streaming to both services through Restream.io, I figure it is best to feature both services to my work.

Have You Any Topic Suggestions?
Just like with my blogs, I am open to suggestions. Feel free to contact me if you have any ideas for what you may want to see me do a live stream about. If I like your idea, I may consider that as a future topic for my material.
If I create more gaming assets, I will be sure to share them with you all here on this page as well as in my other online content.
