ProPresenter vs. External Tools: The Best Way to Create Content

Show Notes

In this episode of ProPresenter Power Talks, the topic of debate is building content in ProPresenter versus creating it externally. Hosts Steve and Sheik explore the pros and cons of each approach. They discuss their personal experiences, workflow preferences and the best way to create content.

Sheik shares his history of building content outside ProPresenter, citing the flexibility and control it offers. Meanwhile, Steve highlights recent improvements in ProPresenter’s capabilities. He emphasizes how creating content within the software can streamline live production and enable quick changes.

The hosts then examine scenarios where each method shines. Pre-service and post-service content often work well when created externally. However, in-service elements like sermon slides benefit from being built in ProPresenter. This allows for on-the-fly edits and seamless integration with other features.

Additionally, they address the challenges of streaming and multi-screen setups. These situations often require content to be created within ProPresenter for maximum flexibility. The hosts offer creative solutions for balancing pastor preferences with technical needs.

Also, throughout the discussion, Steve and Sheik stress the importance of team communication. They encourage listeners to have open dialogues about workflow and desired outcomes.
