Writing a program to use OBS

I'm trying to create an application that I will leverage OBS to film clips several people one after the other.

The Idea:
A person will come in and sit behind a desk with a green screen behind it and talk for 30 seconds then leave. The next person will come in and talk for 30 seconds then leave.

The User Experience:
I plan to put a timer up on the corner of the screen that will count down the remaining time left. Once the recording is done I will then have the program upload the video to our server. The program will then pause and wait for a keystroke before starting the next recording.

The Equipment:
I will be running this on both mac and PC. Worst case I can work on a single OS.

The Program:
I think it will be best if I use python rather than c++/c# (because of osx). Will I be able to do everything I mentioned with the OBS API? I'm hoping to find out of any potential bottlenecks before I get started.

Extra Question:
Is it much more difficult to use a 3D model as the background?
