What are your "studio settings"?

How to make changes to your studio settings

To access your studio settings, go to the control center for your campaign and select the "settings" option. Here, you will find a variety of elements that you can customize. Simply click on the element you want to edit, and it will expand to show you the available settings for that design.

Read on to learn what you can do with the individual elements. 

Tip

To preview your changes, click the play button next to the element in the settings to see how your modifications will look.

Presets

You can save all your designs as a preset. This means that you can change your settings once, and that could be your standard template for your future live shows. You can also make multiple presets and toggle between them.

To make your design a preset, follow these steps:

Step 1: Choose how you want to prepare your preset. You can choose to build from the existing template in Sprii by choosing "save as new template", or you can start from scratch with "create new template". If you already made your changes before creating a preset, you have to choose to save it as a new template for your changes to transfer. 

Studio settings (5)

Step 2: Save any changes made if necessary, then choose "set as default", and you're done! This design will now automatically be your preset for your upcoming live shows.

Before show

Your before show is your first chance to entertain your viewers and pique their interest for the rest of the live, so make it count with a customized countdown. 

Under the before show settings you can: 

  • Change the background.
    The background dimensions are 1080x1920 (Instagram story size), and you can use various file types, including .mp4, .mov, and .jpeg, giving you the ability to use either video or still images. Please note that you can only upload one file.

After show

After concluding your live show, you can wrap it up by playing the "after show," which serves as a summary of all the products featured during the live event.

In the after show settings, you can:

  • Change the background
  • Change how many products will be shown at once, and for how long
  • Add text, for example, a prompt to join the live reminder
  • Set it up for vertical och horizontal product signs

Please note that the design of the products shown in the after show is based on the design set for the product overlays.

Product display

Your product overlays are a big part of the show, as they will continuously be shown throughout to highlight the different products for sale. To be sure that you are happy with them, you have the opportunity to adjust the design directly in Sprii. 

Under the product display settings, you can: 

  • Change the layout and position of your overlays 
  • Change the color scheme 
  • Adjust what information will be shown on the overlay, for example, you can add or remove product information, sold-out indication, etc.

Custom overlays

With Sprii overlays, you have the flexibility to customize various design elements. However, please note that the shape of the overlays and the type of data displayed have certain limitations. If you prefer more creative control, you can design your own overlays.

If you need some guidelines, we have prepared templates for you if you click the link HERE.

After creating your overlays, the next step is to upload them to the specific products. Navigate to the "products" section within your campaign setup. Select the product you wish to customize, and then click on "custom overlay." Here, you can upload the image of your desired overlay for that product.

Studio settings (3)

To display the custom overlays, you will also need to adjust the layout settings under the product overlay section. Select the "image only" option to ensure your custom overlays are properly shown.

Comments and reservations

You can monitor live comments and reservations directly on the device you are using for filming, enabling real-time engagement with your audience. These elements will appear at the bottom of your screen, with viewer questions displayed on the left and reservation notifications on the right. Within the settings, you can customize how many comments and reservations are shown at once, as well as adjust the font size to enhance readability.

Competitions

If you are hosting any competitions during your live show, and if you have added a presentation to it, you can adjust how these are displayed. See below what changes you can make to the specific types of competitions:

Poll

Under the settings for the poll, you can:

  • Change the position and size of the overlay
  • Change the color scheme of the option bars, as well as the background color of the winning alternative

  • Change the color scheme for the presentation overlay, as well as the color of the animation shown when drawing a winner.

Treasure hunt

Info boxes

You can utilize info boxes to emphasize important information for your viewers during the show. This could include instructions on how to sign up for live reminders, details about a discount code, or even an interesting fun fact to engage your audience.

You can create an info box by following the steps below: 

Step 1: Click "new info box" inside the studio settings & click the row created for the infobox

Step 2: You can then add whatever text you'd like inside the text box

That's it! 

To customize your info box, you can:

  • Change the position and sizing of your info boxes
  • Change the background color 
  • The standard setting is that you have to manually pause the info box, but inside the settings, you can set it up so that the info box is automatically paused after x amount of seconds shown

Countdown

Incorporating a countdown into your live show can significantly enhance audience engagement. This feature allows you to create anticipation, whether you're counting down to the announcement of a competition winner or signaling the end of a special offer.

To use the countdown, simply activate it in the studio settings. Then you can:

  • Choose the length of the countdown (in seconds)
  • Change the position and sizing of the countdown
  • Change the color 

With all of these features, you should now be able to ensure that the look of your live show matches your brand! If you want to learn more about how to use the features in the control center, check out our guide here: Sprii Control Center
