Develop your own design skills and know your time frame available for content creation

Equipment

Cell phone camera for start up process

CAMO app to use phone wirelessly as a webcam

Be aware of screen resolution – If you have a larger monitor use it for recording

Audio – Microphone

Rode Wireless Go Mic – connects to camera and individual and then use a lavalier. This allows for better calibration.

Also good for short form content such as Tik-Tok or videos where you are moving

Fifine – Desk microphone -

Be aware of room acoustics – preferably a room with carpet

Keep microphone as close as possible to your mouth

Camera

ZVE Sony camera

Shure MV7

Promoting Channel / Videos

Facebook vs. YouTube – algorithim doesn’t “get along”

Promotion across platforms may not actually be a good idea in all cases

Focus on making the most optimal content for YouTube – Let YouTube decide to put the content in front of people

Use your own video to promote your other videos

Watch for including too many calls to action
