In very simple terms -
Livestreaming is the Real-time vs premiere the Past Time vs Broadcasting which is the combo of both..
Premiere is when the filming and recording happened in the past. video and audio material was edited then uploaded on youtube while live streaming is happening right there and then.
YouTube Premieres allows creators and viewers to watch a new video together at the same time.
It's like a movie premiere - first time never seen the footage or video before, just uploaded and watched by the video creator and their audience at the same time.
You are watching the video together and you can interact with other viewers via the chatbox.
The video will show in the video section tab on YouTube rather than in the live stream tab.
Just like in live streaming fans and subscribers are able to chat and viewers are able to send super chat donations, super chat stickers and show appreciation and support to the channel creator—just like you would do in a live stream.
While live streaming, a creator is able to respond to the audience in real-time via the video stream or the chatbox
while in premiere, the creator can respond via the chatbox only - why because the streaming video or audio material is not happening in the real-time.
Live Broadcasting is when you mix the edited video and audio material with live Streaming.
You combine edited video and audio material and que the files in the Live Broadcasting software with your overlays, PIP, Lower thirds and so on.
The best example is News broadcasting and radio stations broadcasting and The best example of the Broadcasting software that YouTubers use is Mimo Live, OBS and Telecast or Wirecast.
I am using Mimo live or boinx software. It's easy to use, great range of features and it allows me to be very creative.
While broadcasting,
which is what we do right now, I can cut in at any time. I pause the video file which is running right now and go live with my live camera, which I am going to do right now.
What is my favourite and why?
Live streaming is super awesome.
You can interact with your audience in real-time, respond to questions, build relationships with your subscribers…its great stuff.
When should you start live streaming?
Does the number of your subscribers matter when you should start live-streaming?
Well, there are many opinions about that and of course, this is only in my opinion:
If you are just starting your YouTube channel, you really don’t know who your audience is and how engaging they will be.
In my opinion, don't rush into live-streaming.
Start creating and uploading good quality videos and see how you go.
Judge how your viewers are responding to your material and various subjects and topics.
If your videos pulling a lot of likes, comments, views and engagement, you are on a good track and you should seriously consider starting live streaming.
Regardless of the number of your subs, If your subscribers are not very active, engaging and shy on giving you thumbs up, comment and share your videos - I strongly suggest delaying going live on a regular basis.
I found that Failing to pull constant and good numbers on live streams, youtube just doesn’t recommend or promote your videos enough. Even when your stream is over your doesn’t get as many recommendations.
So use it wisely.
