Question of the Day ⚡ What do you think about these RUclips Studio Setups? Let me know! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼 ***** Watch our FREE RUclips Masterclass to GROW your channel in 2021 ➡️ ThinkMasterclass.com
I think we need to take a step back - and ask ourselves a few questions. 1. MUST I BE ON RUclips, and HoW MUCH RUclips is needed. In the frenzy of the last decade, RUclips and social media has become a thing. But one needs to ask how much value really does being on RUclips and Social Media create, and of course this depends on your audience. Depending on the content, RUclips may not always be the right or only medium, cos RUclips may be simply a window - like a commercial advert, to pull the audience to go to your store e.g your web site to look at things in more detail. i.e is the RUclips video the "product" or a signpost to the product. The answer will determine how much effort goes into this. 2. VIDEO "CURRENCY" how current will this video be. What kind of video are we creating - one for the moment - news worthy, hype worthy, valuable because of the timeliness of the info - like news, or are we creating a video which has a medium term relevance or will be relevant for many years to come. The time relevance of the video will determine how much effort one needs to put into the video, in gear, etc, etc. Otherwise you are investing good money in bad if for example investing so much money in a video that will become obsolete in a few days - bad decision. 3. RETURN ON INVESTMENT To make the Sound of Music or the Godfather, or Star Wars, which will be watched over and over and over for decades, they spend a lot of money. To make an Attenborough BBC documentary they still spend a lot, but not as much as a Star Wars film To report on Donald Trump, I do not think they need to spend much money. SO my point is that RUclips needs to be thought of as a business decision, unless its of course just a hobby and there are no commercial considerations. How much am I getting from making this Youtue video, and this informs how much I should invest in it. RUclips is a platform - free to publish, but really not free cos it takes time, money, effort, to create content for RUclips. Only the publishing is free - you still have to promote it - which is not free takes effort, to get people to find your video.
A lot of newer channels think that in order to create a successful channel, they need expensive equipment and that's simply not the case. I literally use a $5 lamp I got from target and I taped some paper over it to diffuse the light evenly. I know it might not be the best and most impressive lighting setup, but for someone who records in my room with limited space, it works wonders. I'm on the verge of breaking 1000 subscribers and I can tell you right now, it's because of the quality of my content and engagement with my audience, not how much I've spent on equipment. Good luck everyone!!! 😬
Exactly!! I've just started and i have a window in my room and frosted windows, and bam my smartphone on my laptop screen and I'm good to go, it's always quality over quantity and content over fancy!!!😌😌
Me: Trying to build a yt Channel and feeling completely lost! Think Media: Shows you everything on RUclips for free. 🙏 Thanks a million guys! You all are amazing!
In keeping with the theme of this video, I’m finding that it’s actually pretty fun to see my video quality improve each month, both from slowly upgrading gear to just more practice with making videos. RUclips is a journey, and it’s pretty fun to actually see progress. Remember everyone, seek progress, not perfection!
@@dantrixter yeah it’s funny because at first I was very self-conscious about the video quality, lack of editing, etc. But I feel that every video of mine improves just a wee little bit, and it’s been really cool to start to see how things get a bit better each time (by my standards, anyways) as I put out each new video. Best of luck on your channel!!
DUDE - THANK YOU for breaking this into laymans terms regarding the 'blurry background' issue!!! Not a single RUclipsr has said this! I think it's one of those 'its so simple it gets overlooked'. I finally figured this out a little bit ago when it came time for me to build my own studio. But I WISH another creator had just come out and said this!
I have a cheap setup I made from your videos. But lately I've been trying ti have a different background in every video I make and it's really increased my creativity and production value on my videos!
Just picked up a cheap ring light for $35 on Amazon, over the weekend. It's super bright and has different light modes. Haven't used it in a video yet, but considering I didn't have a light before, it should help my videos out a lot!
Awesome gear suggestions! I just purchased the Sony ZV-1 and I also film with my Samsung Note 10 plus. I think that people who are new to RUclips should consider purchasing their equipment slowly and overtime as they need it as everyone has different needs. I would highly suggest that if you do a lot of indoor videos, then you need to have good lighting. The audio coming out of your phone or cameras are quite decent and as long as you have excellent content you will be fine. If you are doing voice overs then definitely upgrade microphone as the computer mics are not that great. I do like the idea of using the Diety mic as it does contribute to a better sounding audio for your video. Thanks for sharing this information Omar. You talk at a great pace making it easy to understand you. Some other people on this channel either speed up the the video or talk way too fast. Have a fantastic day!
I am setting up my first RUclips Video podcast studio and I bought everything that you suggested. Hope it all works out as you suggested. Very helpful and straight forward. Thank you so much!
I love how relatable you made the budgeting to take these crucial steps. I have the best setup here as I'm barefoot and caffeine deprived, but soooooo worth it!!!
The Canon M50 is available on the Canon refurbished site for $422. A great deal! That, plus the Sigma 16mm or the Canon 22mm ($159 refurbished) make for a great deal! (Sure, you can't really film 4K with it, but otherwise it's a great and easy-to-use starter camera.)
Omar's change of pace and tone from informative to goofy and joking has had me clicking back over to back up to catch it again. Curious about this videos viewer retention graph at those points.
you guys are so great, you were with me when I started my youtube channel and you are the only channel I use for all youtube related things, thanks again.
I like roshies lol..my setup m50, iPhone 12 pro max, and go pro 7 black. Ring light and lav mic. ...for now that’s enough for me. Definitely want to grow my gear but with time no rush. Thanks for all the vids man.
Man you are making amazing videos on your own and the fact that you work with think media you are really bringing value and vibe the whole thing . Keep up the good work helping the new creators like myself . Learning from these vids and taking ideas .
For my channel currently i am using Boya BY-M1, since my channel is about graphics and programming tutorial, i am using the screen recording, soon planning to camera for my tutorials, thanks @Think Media for the Guidance.
Thank you Omar! I appreciate the valuable information you have shared. Also, I like how you have summarised the 3 different setups, all in this same video. Very convenient. Excellent job :)
Hey @omareltakori I currently shoot with my iPhone 11 with boya by m1 and a 12inch ring light but soon Am going pro with the m50 can’t wait am super excited👍👍
Good Video. But a capture card will not work with the M50 because the M50 does not have a clean HDMI output feature. Instead you can use a USB Cable and the Canon Webcam Utility software from their website and it works (also on Mac).
@Good News, Good Deeds!! thank you very much for your support! I’m currently focus on family live with the baby, but planning to work on the next video to get back into the game :)
Love your content , cristal and clear . Good friend of mine told me sony Zv-e10 with a sigma lens should be the best beginner camera … what do you think ? Thanks for lighting up my newbie lantern ☺️☺️☺️
Hello Omar, Thank you for sharing this very informative video. Yes I'm taking notes. I'm determined to purchase these items. Hey Black Friday and Cyber Monday will be here soon. Have a great day. Fully view video.👍😀 Jacqueline
I think it’s worth noting on the $1000 kit that you’ll need to get the m50 mark ii to get clean hdmi out. The mark I is cheaper but you’ll have to use the canon webcam utility or 3rd party software. SL3 has clean hdmi, I believe.
Who else is on that shoestring budget? 👀 Abundance is coming. 🌱💲 These Tips that worked for me: 1. Authentically engage with your RUclips comments (like this one) 2.

@Whitney G. Thank you so much! I'm gonna release an active alert hypnosis for working out motivation and healing DOMS soon =) just subscribed to your channel too
Thank you very much for video and suggestions. By the way, do you know if there is any differences between the small microphone and a big one which some vloggers use also? (I mean for the same price). Thanks

@@okay1904 great way to set the tone. Everyone must really be honest about what type of value are they actually bringing.
I think the Sony zv1 will fit in the vid because it is $699 and has no Record limit and defocused background it is small and has a Flip out screen

Consistently, your company rocks with worthy info, practicality, and style.
I already have all the equipment.It has bern collecting dust for a while now. Now I just need to stop being shy and just do it...:).
i also have that problem :(
I didn’t need a new mic until I heard how the deity eliminated the wind noise in the clip by the sliding glass door! Great video!
Thanks!
I have a cheap setup I made from your videos. But lately I've been trying ti have a different background in every video I make and it's really increased my creativity and production value on my videos!
@Beginner Code lol
I try to do something different
Remember that the substance in your content is KEY; and you're as good as the tool you've mastered.
Great video as always guys!

I am making youTube videos just with my iPhone, nothing else. You just need to believe on yourself that you can create good content. Best of luck 🤞
*PEOPLE WATCHING THIS BE LIKE:*
*ON BED*
*NOT IN FULL SCREEN*
*READING COMMENTS*
Not funny
Ye lol
That’s me
@@JackRay me to
I’m dead. Literally happening right now lol
I love how relatable you made the budgeting to take these crucial steps. I have the best setup here as I'm barefoot and caffeine deprived, but soooooo worth it!!!
Most people think that audio is secondary, but it is most important.
You guys uploaded at the perfect time . I was in need of someone making a video about their setups !
The Diety M50 ups the audio game definitely. No contest from the base device mic.
This was a great video, so good that I came here to applause you 🙏🏼👏👏👏
The Canon M50 is available on the Canon refurbished site for $422. A great deal! That, plus the Sigma 16mm or the Canon 22mm ($159 refurbished) make for a great deal! (Sure, you can't really film 4K with it, but otherwise it's a great and easy-to-use starter camera.)
On Sigma 16mm:
“The glass in this, will make you look like a superhero haha”
Earned my like there hahaha

*Thanks brother, you're awesome! Thanks, everyone at Think Media, I'm learning lots from you great folks. Love & Peace, everyone.*
Always love to watch your videos. So informative n fun at the same time ~
you guys are so great, you were with me when I started my youtube channel and you are the only channel I use for all youtube related things, thanks again.
I can't wait to use the Sigma 16 mm lens on my new M50 Mark II! If I am going to get this look, its a must! :) Thanks Omar.
I like roshies lol..my setup m50, iPhone 12 pro max, and go pro 7 black. Ring light and lav mic. ...for now that’s enough for me. Definitely want to grow my gear but with time no rush. Thanks for all the vids man.

I love this channel. Wow what a resource for us creative types!!
For my channel currently i am using Boya BY-M1, since my channel is about graphics and programming tutorial, i am using the screen recording, soon planning to camera for my tutorials, thanks @Think Media for the Guidance.
Awesome tips. that middle would be a great way to start. AVLS is super important.
A kit for making videos in a small room could be nice. 👏🏼
Thank you Omar! I appreciate the valuable information you have shared. Also, I like how you have summarised the 3 different setups, all in this same video. Very convenient. Excellent job :)
I am starting and still using an Android phone to record. I hope to improve soon. Thanks for your video. Greetings from a smart phone user.
Thanks for sharing your practical tips.
I learned more from this single video than most others combined. Excellent content.
Audio is the most important part of the video.
👇Agree?
Yes
Nice set up. The mic is very helpful to level up filming. Thank you
Good lighting love it
1:30 what’s the onboard mic on my mic? 😂 it was a good blooper not to share! By the way, this video is amazing, thank you for sharing! 🤜🏼🤛🏼
Thank you so much I learn allot from you
Just starting out also..recording with my phone but have learnt about audio..really helpful staff,,thanks think media,you're the best!
set up is amazing bro and the lighting super
A.V.L.S THATS HOW WE DO IT! 😂
That deity mic is worth it, you sound so much better
Thank you so much for all the tips very appreciated inspired me to make and try to grow my own channel
Hey @omareltakori I currently shoot with my iPhone 11 with boya by m1 and a 12inch ring light but soon Am going pro with the m50 can’t wait am super excited👍👍
I love your content, keep up the good work.
Sony a6600 or the new Sony a7C?
Sounds 100x better!
Good Video.
But a capture card will not work with the M50 because the M50 does not have a clean HDMI output feature.
Instead you can use a USB Cable and the Canon Webcam Utility software from their website and it works (also on Mac).
Yessss this quality is my GOAL!!
Thank you so much for this!!!
I really want to get this sigma lens for Christmas! Sigma 16mm Lens
Check your local camera shops Joy I have totally specked out my m50 for cheap by buying like new used lenses.
Great recommendations!
I definitely underestimated the importance of a mic and good lighting. Still experimenting to get better results 🤓
@Good News, Good Deeds!! thank you very much for your support! I’m currently focus on family live with the baby, but planning to work on the next video to get back into the game :)
i like this guy, no wonder he is winning
New to this channel, been learning so much! Thank you!!

Wow very good video I love your video so much ❤️👍
Love your content , cristal and clear . Good friend of mine told me sony Zv-e10 with a sigma lens should be the best beginner camera … what do you think ? Thanks for lighting up my newbie lantern ☺️☺️☺️

Excuse me... I’m eating breakfast sir!! Knowledge in the AM
Awesome lighting!
That 50$ Dollar mic sounds soooo good!
Appreciate the info, been looking for a good Lav mic!
Great content. Very informative.
It's definately time to level up ny game, good video and good pointers still indecisive as to what to buy.. 🤔
I learned a lot everyday from Think Media. My go to setting are at HD :-)
Can I know what font you used on your logo? It is very attractive for my eyes😍
灯光的处理也很受用啊！
Good information 😎👍
I like the microphone but I think you should attach a microphone on the camera it sound better for the m50 in my opinion
Cool!!! Informative 👍
Brilliant Video! Thanks!
We love you Omar haha
Who else is on that shoestring budget? 👀
Abundance is coming. 🌱💲

This is what i need.. thank you soo much.. 👍
So helpful Tx a lot
1:00 sick beat 😂🤣
I recommend the Boya BY-M1 instead because it's less expensive.
Great video 👍
Thanks for video! For now I’m going to stay with my set up until i get monetized!! That way I feel like I earned it 😊 AVLS !
Can you discuss what editing programs you use.
The set up looks great.
Thank you very much 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
VALUE.
@23min Get the Canon M50 with that Sigma lens save about 800$ dollars with just as good quality IMO
