Being successful in Public Chat is more than just getting naked, its about knowing how to react to your chatroom and what to do when you get tipped. Staying calm and making these small changes to your show will make a BIG difference!

1. Don’t Let TIPS Stop You…

Don’t send a PM to every viewer who sends you a tip! If you are in the middle of your show and someone tips you its because they like what you are doing! If you stop what you are doing to send them a PM, you will train your room to not tip you because you stop the action they are tipping you for.

2. Stay Cool And Tease.

When someone sends you a tip its nice to say thank you, but don’t rip all your clothes off and get too excited, make them work for it a bit and TEASE! Its also important to NOT jump all over your tippers when they com into your room. Jumping on your whales when they come in the room (or someone who contributed a lot to your last show) can alert others to the fact that that a generous viewer came in the room and could make them rely on this viewer to tip you. This can make generous viewers feel awkward and can open them up to messages from others asking for tips. Just stay cool and the tips will come.

3. Less Typing Means More Touching.

Keep your chatroom alive by making everyone chat with you in your public chat. It is VERY boring to watch you type during your show and having a bunch of private conversations kills the show an the chat. When they all ask to PM you simply say “Talk to me in here! If my hands are busy I can’t do a show!”

Here at CAM4, we’re proud to welcome a new feature that will forever benefit performers and their streaming quality – Lightstream Studio! 

Lightstream Studio is a web-based broadcast studio that will give our broadcasters the tools they need to create their most fun, or craziest, live shows! Lightstream Studio is similar to tools such as Split and OBS, but performers don’t need to download and install any software to use it! 

Features for Lightstream Studio include:

• The ability to combine multiple cams into a single stream
• Add graphic overlays into your videos
• Pre-recorded video playback for review
• 3rd party plugins are allowed

Broadcasters on CAM4 will have to create an account on Lightstream Studio before they can use the feature on CAM4. 

NOTE: The only way you can create an account on Lightstream Studios is to link it to an existing FACEBOOK, YOUTUBE, TWITCH OR MIXER account. Once you’re linked on Lightstream Studios, you can disable broadcasting on any of these platforms. Performers who want to stay anonymous are recommended to create a new YouTube or Twitch account to sign up.
