I was scared to do it myself and was probably going to pay for a service. watching this video gave me the confidence to do it and you probably saved me a ton of money

thanks!
@FreakyChumy
Thanks for sharing this one, I love the outlines you made, "Cyberpunk Polygons" simple & clean (I'll make mine yellow). We could also minimize the process of adding each individual layer by making a "video overlay" out of them in After Effects, in there we could also add animation to each individual element or make them Glow with the Saber plugins. That way, we could just add a single "media source" in OBS or SLOBS.
@SteveTadGaming
It’s easier in Illustrator
@gabrielepettinato5277
I can't fill with color wtf…I select the color square, but once I point the poly i created i can't fill it.

@blessyponnachen9528
Can't we able to add overlay like this in OBS
@blessyponnachen9528
But here you haven't used OBS ?
Here you have used stream labs?
@blessyponnachen9528
Is that we can use overlays only if we are recording games ?
Can a YouTuber who upload voice over video lecturers can use this kind of overlays ?

@luna__n0x
how do you make the whole background animated while still being able to place a game frame over top of it so i can still be seen? I've made one with video editing software but now of course i cannot make the section where the face cam and game play window is transparent. Send help!
@ladyfritzler
Very helpful tutorial! I am not seeing any stream widget options in regular OBS.
