I loved this idea. Can you share your Obs defaults/workflow for this? By example, I work 8hs per day, how much space all this audio/video recording will take? What video/resolution/etc? Thank you!

Honestly for me it was just the act of being able to see my picture and my screen moving inside OBS, not even the fact that it was recording. I tried streaming myself live coding on Twitch a couple times and it was a blast. I felt like I was thinking so much more clearly. I didn't save the recordings—just the act of it all was worthwhile.

the idea is to make a video that you can watch yourself. 8 hours of video isn't very enticing to watch. i suggest organizing the recordings by feature or task.

the only other thing I considered setting up in OBS is to make it work with Spotify to get a great bg music.
