Welcome back to my channel,
in here we will help you to understand
floral design with step-by-step videos
and on this channel sometimes we will do tutorials
just like this one if you are new here consider subscribing!
nowaday everyone knew
videos are the number one engagement tool for your business
but making videos can be intimidating and confused
actually on my channel
my friend Renato and I made the video on
how to take a professional video
and you can check that out
by checking the youtube card
or the description below,
I'm sure you wonder
what kind of equipment you should buy?
and how much budget you need for that?
so let me show you what kind of basic equipment you need
to start your first video,
a lot of people probably thinking about
they need to go buy a brand new camera
before they start making the video
but in my opinion
you should look at what equipment you already had
before you go buy anything
and then look at the budget
figure out where you want to spend your money
if you're looking for a camera
for your photo design videos
I'm going to show you some options
so you can see which one is suitable for you.
At first, we have a cell phone as one of our choices,
nowadays everyone has a smartphone in their pocket
they are easy to use and also super light
if you have an older model cell phone
I will recommend buying one of the
clip-on lenses
just like this one
so it can take a wide-angle video
especially when you're in a small area!
but if you have the iphone 12
or the newest model cell phone
you don't need to worry about it
they already have that options built-in
I have to say the newest model cell phone
video quality it is amazing !
next we have a DSLR camera
and the mirrorless those are two types of camera
basically does the similar things
but if you are going into the detail,
they are having some differences in the functionality,
if you are buying a camera for your videos
few things you have to consider
like how much megapixel they have?
what kind of video quality it can provide?
1080p or 4k video?
how about continuing autofocus?
also do they have a flip-screen?
that is really important for me
I want to see myself when I shooting the video
to make sure everything looks alright
in the market, they have camera price point from
six hundred dollars to three thousand dollars
come along with complicated functions
sometimes can be overwhelming for you
to choose which one is the best for you
so please set a budget
and do your research before you go shopping

thank you so much!!!
question of the day what camera do you have?
let me know in the comment section now!!!
Microphone is so important when it comes to videos
when you had the video look good itself
but the audio is bad it is so easy to turn off people,
on the other hand, when your videos
quality is not so professional
but your audio is decent
likely your audience will keep watching,
so that's why microphone is extremely important
tools for your videos let me show you what
let me show you what microphone I use on my videos,
The first microphone options
I want to share with you is
a $20 lapel mic
this is a popular choice for
people who making contents with their phone
because it's easy to set up
you just need to clip it on your shirt
and hook it up with your phone, it is ready to go!
The other option is a shotgun microphone
this is my favourite mic for a tutorial video
this one is around $32
but the quality is awesome!
two things I like about this microphone
at first, they don't have an on and off switch
so you don't need to worry about you turning it on
other things they come with a mini stand
so you can just put it on top of your camera
this is super handy for travelling
if you're making the tutorial video
I will highly recommend this two microphone
they will provide a high quality audios for your contents
tripod is a must tool for your video productions
especially when your one-man band
you need to film your video by yourself
tripod price in the market
can be from 25 dollars to few hundred dollars
so which one is the best for you????
it is depends on your budget
I remember my first tripod is around $10
from the dollar`s store
it's not very good
but it's okay in that time
so let me show you some variety of the
tripod you can get it from the market ,
when you buying a tripod few things you need to consider
what kind of tripod do you need?
is it for photos or for videos?
do you want to travel with it?
how heavy is it?
how much weight it can handle?
and how tall is it?
those are few things you need to consider
At first, we have a Gorillapod here
this is easy to travel with it
if you use it for outdoor
you can hang on the tree
or grab on something
especially when you use it for wedding setup
this is fun to handle
the small one is for cell phone or smaller camera
the larger one is for the bigger camera like DSLR
I did all of my travel videos with this tripod
The next we have photo tripod and video tripod
the difference in between this two tripod
is the head of the tripod
,this one is just a regular ball head for photo
the other one is fluid head tripod this
this is a perfect choice for video
it can pan and tilt
we use it for tutorial and B-roll videos
the last one is the overhead tripod
if you have this you can do some
top-down perspective video
for this kind of tripod usually they
come with an extended arm
I use it for my top angle time-lapse
video . Next, I'm gonna talk about lighting
lighting is super important for our videos
because lighting can turn video like this
to this
let me show you guys some options for lighting
before I show you all the lighting options I got
I want to share with you one of my favorite light
it is free it's
it's the most flattering light for your video
it's called Natural Light,
natural light is the best!!!
it's the most beautiful soft light you can have
but the only problem is that
it cannot be controlled
sometimes it`s good
sometimes it's cloudy,
sometimes it's rain, it all depends on the weather!
for an overall
if you guys have a window in front of you
take advantage of it
this is definitely the way to start!
here we have a LED portable video light
this is easy to setup
you can just put it on top of your camera
it's good to go
the price for this is about $20
the next one is called rain light
a lot of beauty channel using this for their
tutorial video,
sometimes they come with a tripod
also they have a dimming button
you can adjust the brightness this
one is around $100.
Next, we have umbrella light this is a lower budget light
but this is very good
I make my first 100 videos with this light
good value and easy to set up
this package they come with three different lights
and tripods only $60
but only problem we have is you cannot control
the brightness on this light
so you have to adjust your brightness on your camera,
here we have a portable LED panel
this is super bright
easy to handle around $90
you can adjust brightness and temperature on this
if you decided to purchase this
I would recommend you to buy a diffuser box with it
so it will soften up the light
the last one is my new favourite light
I just bought this on amazon
Its continuous LED video lights
in this package
they come with a LED light with remote control,
softbox and a stand for $250
this is definitely is my favourite
but this is huge
if you have a small area this is not gonna be suitable for you
so you have to put it into your consideration.
hopefully after this video
you will have a better understanding
what kind of equipment you need
to start your online video
but we have to remember
your content is more important than the equipment
it's not about how fancy is your camera
it is all about your contents
and how much value you bring it to your audience
don't be a gearhead!!!
okay that's it for now
if you like this video be sure you give a like !!!
and see you next time!
