The webinar studio is where you present your webinar and interact with your attendees. To access the studio, locate your webinar under My Webinars and click on Enter Studio next to the webinar title.
For a Series webinar, click Show All next to the series title and then select the desired session by clicking the play icon.
The studio provides a live video stream that is not visible to attendees until you click on Start Broadcast. Prior to this, attendees see the stream as a grayed-out box with the webinar title. Above the stream, you'll find the webinar's current state and title, as well as the status of your connection to our servers. You'll also see the button to start and end the broadcast, which is only enabled 30 minutes before the webinar start time. A countdown timer appears over the video stream as your webinar approaches. If you experience connection issues, you can use the Reconnect option located beneath the video stream.
On the left sidebar, you'll find various tools for presenting and managing your webinar:
Share Screen: Use the screen icon to share your screen with attendees.
