# Your Twitch stream. In your own Studio.

Bring your picture, sound and community into one workspace. AnimStream Studio combines the broadcast setup with Twitch chat and events, so your stream can look like yours from the first scene.

## Build the scene your audience sees

Start with a landscape canvas. Add your camera and the capture source you need, then position chat, alerts and goals around the action. Keep a separate starting-soon or break scene so you can change what viewers see without rebuilding your layout.

## Connect events. Configure output. Then go live.

Choose Twitch in Studio’s connection bar and authorize the account. This connects supported chat and events; it does not broadcast your screen. In the separate Go Live dialog, configure your streaming destination and stream key. Start output only after checking the selected scene and audio mix.

- Treat the stream key as a password; never show it on stream.
- Make a short local recording to check picture and audio first.
- Confirm the actual picture and sound in your Twitch dashboard after starting.

## Give follows, subscriptions and raids a place in the show

Use Twitch chat, alertbox, activity feed and goals. Supported subscriptions, Bits and raids are Twitch events — not TikTok gifts with a different label. Some channel features require additional permissions or account eligibility. Test the event you actually intend to use in the simulator.

## Keep the essentials free. Choose your look.

The desktop Studio is free. Creator-made animations and other Store content are optional purchases. Check the product’s format and use before buying; an animation designed for a portrait gift moment will not automatically fit a landscape gaming scene.

Chat connected is not the same as live. Check both the event connection and the broadcast output.
