Now YouTube's made it possible to live stream your content across the world with just a few clicks of a few buttons and in this video I'm going to show you how simple it is to click the right buttons to set up and schedule your first live event on YouTube. 0:26 Ok to set up and schedule your live events on YouTube first thing we need to do is mouse up here to the top, click on the gear here and come down to Video Manager. Now we need to make sure that our channel is actually enabled to do live events and to do that we come under Channel Settings and we need to make sure that we have a green button here. Now if you have a green button let's go ahead and click on Video Manager and we're going to come down to live events right here. Once we're here we're able to either click this link or this button. Let's go ahead and give it a title, we'll just call it Live Events - Preview. And you can also notice here you can select a date, so we'll say it's on the 17th, and we're going to do it at 2:30 in the morning. You can also do an end time, let's say I want to go until 4:30 and on that same specific date. Now you can also select the time, basically the time that's going to show up. Now for you it's going to show up default where your at, I'm in Utah so I'm on Mountain Time. You can also put a description here, we'll just do live event and you want to treat this exactly like what you're doing when you're optimizing a video, and go from there. So we'll just go ahead and put "Live Event - YouTube" you can put your tags in there, which is great. Now here's a couple things that your able to see you can do private, you can do unlisted, and you can do public. And you can put the names of the individuals in there, or their email addresses, or basically the circles that they actually belong to in your Google+ profile. Really cool. You can select your category, now here's another thing, you can actually pick what type to do. You can either use a hangouts on air or you can do a custom and it has more encoding options. I will have an advanced training to show you how to use the custom mode. Once we're there we can go ahead and click on Advanced and this is still putting the information that you need and you can do promotions through InVideo programming when the event is live. So when people are watching your video that the message comes up and says "Hey, you know, there's a live event going on" you're able to do that and at the end you can actually automatically make the video private, once the event is ended, if you're doing it as an unlisted one. You're also able to monetize this and once that's done you can go ahead and create an event. Now once the event is created you can see right now that we actually have a scheduled event and it is private, so nobody is seeing this, but yet it is scheduled, you can click this start button and where we did this as a hangout on air it's basically start hangout on air. 3:56 Now really launching a hangouts on air directly from your YouTube live events manager, it's really nice. And it's really quick and simple way to engage your fans live and invite other people to collaborate with you and join your video and your show and to grow your channel.
