Create a Live Show or Recording

In this article you'll learn how to create a live or recorded show with live shopping.

To create a show, you'll use the Studio.


Enter the Studio

, then click Studio or Create a show.

Click Create a project, then choose a template. You can choose either Livestream or Recording.


Select Audiences (Livestream only)

If you are doing a livestream, you will have the option to add Streaming destinations. Social and RTMP destinations don't support the special interactive features of Stage TEN, but allow you to reach all of your audiences at once. For more details, see Add Social Audiences.

Your Stage TEN Interactive Player will be selected by default, and if you previously connected Shopify or Shop app those will be displayed here as well.

Tip: Add streaming destinations and tell your audience to watch you on your Stage TEN channel page or Shopify store. This will give you a way to drive traffic to where you want it the most!


Add Monetization

Stage TEN allows you to monetize your shows with a variety of options.

If you have a Shopify store and want to sell products in Live Shopping shows, you can connect your store and choose the products you want to sell in your show. See Shopify Setup Guide for instructions on setting up your store for live shopping.

If you don't have your own store, you can monetize shows by accepting tips, or earning an affiliate commission selling products from our open Product Catalog.

A summary of your broadcast will now be presented and you can change anything needed before entering the studio.

Click on Open Project and you will now enter the Studio:


Create a Scene

Add feeds to invite guests or add a camera. Add assets to import graphics or clips you'll want to show in your show.

Click on a feed or asset to add it to your scene. Once you have your first scene ready, you can start your show.

For more about building scenes, see these articles:

  • Add Feeds, Guests & Assets

  • Building Scenes

  • Connect App & Invite Links


Go Live

When you're ready to start, click on the blue Go live (or Start Recording) button in the top-right corner. Within seconds your stream will be broadcast to each destination and your viewers will be able to see you.

Now is the fun part! Have a blast on your stream and don't take yourself too seriously. Livestreams are always a little chaotic and unexpected things will happen. That's part of the appeal - embrace it.

Tip: Start your livestream with a video or graphic for at least a minute or so. This gives time for your audience to realize your livestream has started and tune in. If you are multistreaming to social destinations or the Shop App, they may trigger push notifications that a user needs to click and open.


End a Show

When you are done your show, then just click on the Stop Live (or Stop Recording) button and that's it, your show is done.

In a moment this show will appear in the Past Streams section of your dashboard where you can review your results or publish it as an interactive replay.


Get Creative

  • Mix and switch multiple live and pre-recorded sources to create your own stream format

  • Add images, videos, custom graphics, and interactive shopping and voting experiences to your stream (see Assets and Graphics)

  • Invite others into your show (see Add Feeds, Guests & Assets)

  • Engage with your audience by enabling chat (see Audience Chat)

  • Conduct a poll of your viewers (see Conduct a Poll)
