Man!! Thank you so much for including me. As you know, streamers often put a lot of time into their set ups and streams and their investments of time and money often go unnoticed to those who don't understand. So hyped! Ill definitely fix my camera and my wiring is a headache lol. I was running those wires down and I drilled a hole through the wall to the next room where I have an entire room with a projector and VR with the Valve Index but that's a whole other story.
Just found you and then stumbled across this. I would like to see more of this content. 1) You approached everyone you tackled with sincerity and professionalism. 2) You were to the point and informative. Very efficient and effective with your delivery. 3) I was able to, with ease, glean enough useful information to make this a very productive endeavor. 4) Your critique was fun, informative. It did this while remaining entertaining and without turning into a nonsense, "shock-jock" , insult humor. 5) Your attention to detail, delivery, and confidence in the subject matter exude not only your passion, but also denote an education in this media.
That second setup was is SO clean. I try to keep my setup like that, simple but next thing you know I'm placing things on top and it just gets cluttered lmaoo. I have to clear things off once a week. Plus the background on his stream is so simple and clean as well. Personally I hate seeing streamers with so much clunk, trash, unnecessary things, dirty laundry on the floor and a mess of a room. Something about it idk....
I definitely get stressed out when I see a mess. Even in movies, if a character has a messy home, I get stressed out by the _fictional_ mess. I think it's because my parents were messy. Now, I love "visual interest"-that's a different thing entirely. I guess it comes down to whether something _looks_ careless. If someone has put a little thought into their room-if they put their anime posters into frames or whatever-people pick up on that, and it makes the streamer seem a little more credible.
Would love to see more of these.... It's great for showing example's of different what to do & what not to do (eg. your description about the lighting angles)
When Harris was talking about camera settings for the last guy's camera he messed up the shutter speed. When you set your shutter speed for video you normally want it to be double your frame rate. Example 24fps = 1/50, 30fps = 1/60, 60fps = 1/125, etc.
Harris usually tells people to set it 1/30 for 30 fps or 1/60 for 60 fps because there is not a ton of movement happening on streams that would cause crazy motion blur, but you're right, in general those are the correct settings for shooting video.
You can now add "Stream SETUP doctor" on your resume as well 😁 I think these kind of videos are useful (and funny in a way, I mean 7 monitors... Really? Who does that? 😂😂) and some tips can be drawn from them. I really enjoyed your video! 🤟
I fell down this rabbit hole when.... shit I don’t even remember what I first searched to end up on this channel. But MY GUY, hella dope content. I just watched your video on how you can make money streaming and the different tiers on twitch. Just flat out straight to the point and very very thorough and it honestly makes me want to dive back into streaming and give it a bit more effort than I did before. Good stuff man! You’ve got my sub!
The 7 monitors with 2 desktop setup is godly. Wish I could have that tbh. Also, I really liked this and I really think you should do more videos like this.
@@BossManSays I have 2 different streaming locations as I have 2 different channels which one of them is together with somebody else. I need to move half of my setup over 2 times as week, so if I tie those cables I need to do that twice a week. If you know a easy fix for this, let me know!
I discovered your channel today when I was looking at reviews on Microphones and I can say, you are very quickly becoming one of my favourite channels to watch
Please do this again! The fps info at the end has been golden. Your critiques are handy for the rest of us with similar set ups and what to adjust in one video. X
Thanks Alpha you’re the man! I’m setting up a simple stream right now and you’ve been more than helpful over the past couple months and I’m sure we’ll before that. Loved this video and I hope you do more like this! Cheers!
O, yes this is an interesting alternative too. But I would ask that the vods be put on youtube, if that wasn't to greedy lol. Because I probably wont be able to tune in, but I for sure would be the guy who watches the full 3 hours of the vod :P
Your the only RUclips channel that successfully managed to make me sit through not one but ✌🏼 15 sec advertisements without me losing my shit canceling out the video. You have earned yourself a sub good sir
Dear Harris, I really love what your job is to the streaming community. I learned a lot through your content, and I'm happy that I stayed around and watched a little more to get to know you. At first you look kinda snobish and smartie pants know-it-all desperate clickbait opinion content, but you really know what you are talking about (and even when it's your opinion, I'm now okay with that), so that's why I took some time to write to you today, I'm very happy that I've been following you. Keep up the good work, and thanks!
My setup is litterally my chair with a wood plank on it where my keyboard and mouse are i dont have a monitor i use my tv and it sits on my cabinate i have an old camera and a stupidly bad mic and i was amazed when i saw the 7-monitor setup i just dont know what mic to get because i stream directly from my x box and im not looking for a webcam because i dont have any more use plus 2 for my mouse and keyboard and the other is plugged in to my controller so my headset and mic dosen't turn off . So yeah lol
I feel like this kind of video is awesome for us as viewers. You get a chance to critique (in a fun way) which turns into helping other people out that may not have known any different i.e. the key light versus the edge lighting.
Really enjoyed this Harris. Keep you other content goin but seeing other people's set ups always inspires me to grow mine. Plus love getting your perspective on them!
I just started getting serious about streaming and these videos help! I would like to see more, because just starting is a little overwhelming but I have so much fun doing it. My equipment sucks, but upgrades are coming!
Part of harris’ personality is hes honest and doesnt just be like “looks amazing man!” If he thinks something could use improvement, he will tell you. But its to help you in the long run and thats what i like about him
Where do all these “up and coming streamers” get all this money to buy these things??? Honestly guys I’m trying to start my own gaming channel but it’s hard! (Asthma Pump gaming btw) but for reals, how!? Do their parents support them and they simply invest whatever money they make off their job onto their gaming channel? Because honestly working in a crappy Autozone job in Texas making $9.13 an hour putting in 36 hours a week just isn’t enough to pay my bills and invest into this hobby.
This is actually very useful... I am literally just setting up my room so this is acting as a great guide (i have lots of scribbled notes). Glad I found this channel. Cheers.
I love this.. I definitely want to see more of these. I was cracking up the entire time while at the same time getting ideas on how to run my streams better..
Love this series! I would like to see more minimal setups. I've been working on a minimalist setup and I'd love to see other setups and get ideas from them!
This was a great video! You should do more! A note on shutter speed. If you want your camera to look right and correct with the fps coming out of obs or whatever, make sure it's 2x your framerate. For example if you're streaming at 24fps, your shutterspeed should be as close to 1/48 since 24fps times 2 is 48; on a Sony a7sii that would be around 1/50. It'd be around 1/60 if you're going for 30fps. It's a common mistake but an easy rule to remember when you're filming stuff too.
3rd RUclips video I watched of yours & just subbed.. (Other 2 were mic and magic streaming tip) I just started streaming on twitch last month and EVERYTHING has been a long learning process.. Really appreciate your help, reviews and how-to's so far Thanks again
Great concept here you should totally do more of these :) Even just the contrast between each set up is a lot somebody can learn from.! 🌠 Thx & keep up the good work
Great stuff. Watched all your videos. Recommendation from a gaffer. Put your key on the side of your face furthest from your camera. It’s general light theory that the closest part of your face should be in shadow, but right now you left side is closest to the camera and light the most.
Rim light... I love this concept! I have always had a Key Light and Fill light, but I am in with love the idea of the Rim light so much more than the Fill light
