YouTube 6 Equipment

So after you’ve watched all the training, you’re probably asking yourself what do I need in order to make this work for my creative business?  Honestly, not much.

You can make great videos with an iphone 7 or higher and a light kit.  Will other gear make it easier for you to record? Yes. But be careful not to purchase items you don’t need.

When I first started I used an iphone 7 & a desktop tripod with phone holder. But you can also zip tie or bungie your phone to a can of spray paint if you don’t have the money to invest in gear.

Now I use a mevo, mevo boost, ipad or iphone 8 to control the mevo camera, and iphone or laptop to watch the comments and a floor tripod.

Below is a list of items I use for all of my video recording.

Cameras:

iphone 8

Mevo Plus Bundle with boost (if you want to wire directly into your router and increases battery life)
