[MUSIC] Hello welcome back to
the happy hut my name is Neil and if you're new to the channel you're most welcome but I don't think
anything in this video will make that much sense because I have got the nicest comments on
on my videos lately that said things like Neil where are you?
well I haven't seen a video be uploaded in three weeks!
is everything okay? and no everything isn't okay
and I’m going to show you why here in the hut it's been quite a busy time in the garden
I’ve got some randy pigeons on the roof so you might hear quite a lot of noise
from them but let's go into the hut and I’m going to show you some of the changes
I’ve made to my YouTube studio setup I absolutely love watching YouTube
studio setup videos so I thought well why don't I make one of my own?
I’ve made some changes to the setup here and I think it might be a bit of overkill
this is how the setup is looking at the moment I’ve got an IKEA standing desk - the Skarsta
standing desk and that's going to be featuring on my IKEA dad channel ding very soon,
once I get through all of the editing it really works it's so much better
and I’ve put in the the light panel that featured on the on the last video
I still think the lighting is a bit harsh and hello here I am on camera two
so this this is the potential new setup and I’m not sure I’m not sure about the lighting
it feels a bit a bit harsh it still feels a bit bright at the moment but
the great thing with this is apart from me being able to pretend like I am Ijustine which is
obviously a very long held ambition of mine but I also have a second camera up in the roof
uh it's actually my phone there's a better shot so that's giving me a top-down view and I’ve got
that running now and here this is something else that I’ve put into my desk I’ve made
a video about this and that should be the next video up on the channel
and what it is is this I’ve cut a hole in my brand new desk
I’ve cut this hole for this headphone jack and USB port
so I can just plug things into my desk and I can transfer files
really easily from even micro SD card but it's also got an SD card import as
well if I ever go down the route of having SD cards like I should
and it's also got a little gap in here so I can run my microphone cable down there
under the desk and all the way over to camera two over there hello you're still there
let me show you underneath the desk because that's where the magic happens
so underneath here I have my mini pc lashed to the desk up there
I haven't quite sorted out the spaghetti yet I’m gonna I think I’m gonna bind those up I’m gonna
move the ethernet cable to over to that side this is the underside from the USB port and
headphone port I know some cable tie cable clip that to the to the desk there, tidy it all up
I put the whole thing on casters as well the whole thing moves which is really great and
I and I can obviously use this winding handle the IKEA Skarsta desk has a winding handle that
makes the desk go down as well so I’ll keep it up for this shot here
now the idea is that I think I mentioned this on my last video that I want to be
standing up while shooting my YouTube videos because it... it just feels a lot more energetic
he says on a sunday afternoon I’ve been spent all day trying to get this ready
but I do have some energy left and the next two videos will be me fitting
the USB port to the desk and also - sneak preview - I’m going to be doing an unboxing or first
impressions review of the audio technica ath m40x which has been very kindly provided by my work
but it turns out that these are the exact headphones that I’ve been coveting
for about a year now since I saw this video with Phineas Eilish Billie Eilish's producer brother
uses these very same headphones it's been torture to uh get this desk ready before
I can unbox it so I’m looking forward to that look this is the top shot does that work
I’ll be able to test this in the edit I think it's doing it in portrait mode
which isn't very helpful because I’ve got to flip it over and I don't think
that helps the the quality at all I like... I like flying camera
number one here that's pretty cool let me show you what it's like to actually stand at this desk
it's I think I have to pull back a bit to get everything in but what's great is that
I can have the monitor here and the wish is that I have got a USB-C to hdmi output and I
think my phone does actually output hdmi footage but my monitor is too old to actually take that in
so I’m going to have to work out some way of getting some kind of hdmi monitor so
I can actually see what I’m shooting in the ceiling and that will be a lot easier because
then I’ll know where to hold the box it sounds like we've got a motorcycle
display team outside but it's it's a summer sunday so we've got some mowing going on
I haven't quite figured out how to completely sound proof the the hut
I guess closing the door would help wouldn't it- that let's try that
so what do you think loyal subscribers I thank you so much for your comments but is is the lighting
too harsh and how is this framing for you it feels really comfortable for me
and I can make the desk go even higher I want to I almost snapped the monitor cable
and I did this earlier but oh my goodness this feels so comfortable and I can hold
I can hold pack shots like this or from up above thanks for being there thanks so much for your
kind comments I promise I’ve got some cracking bang of videos on their way to you right now
and right here I’ve had that box over my face haven't I right here there's some of some other
things that I’ve been doing on YouTube thanks once again and we've got some more
great videos coming right up I think that was everything?
