  • What a complete tool… is not many professional video editors that used Mac most of them use PC, so don't waste your money on an overpriced Mac get a decent PC

  • I am a total beginner so I have no idea if my question is stupid. Can I use a gopro for this purpose ?
    Thanks!

  • Hi – I would like to shoot talking head videos but the distance between me and the background is not a lot. I'd like to buy a lense that shows a wide view of my background without me looking really zoomed out. Any suggestions?

  • This was so helpful😭 literally got my whole set up in one video (minus the mic; I went for another of their suggested videos). Thank you for what you do!

  • Question: why isn't connecting the camera to your computer and recording video directly to your local drive a preferred method, versus recording to an SD card and then taking that out of the camera and putting it into the computer and copying the files over to the local drive; then unmounting the SD card and putting it back into the camera, maybe first removing files to ensure there's enough space, etc etc etc. Seems like a real pita rather than using an hdmi cable and capture card to go directly into OBS (or similar) to record?

  • Dont buy apple computers, they're trash compared to a custom Windows PC. Not to mention the operating system is awful unless you're technologically illiterate.

  • This video is two years old. Would love an update video with current technology.

  • 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 🤞

  • Iv noticed Americans talk a lot and use a lot of words without actually saying anything.

  • Tips that can help first introduce yourself and share some personal stuff and then tell them with day's are we gonna post. For shorts it will be 10 or 9 seconds to do this but it's your choice to do this when it 3 year later I'll come back to see what you have done

  • Oh my gosh thank you so much your very helpful. I appreciate all your advice. I subscribed. I'm gonna need you as I am a 1st beginner at YouTube. I'm not that great with editing.
    I got 1 question. I have an IPAD you said need a computer.
    Can I use my IPAD as the computer?? Can I use an SD card for it as well??

  • Helpful video, thank you. I'm just starting my research, and I'm a bit of a tech dinosaur, so I'm slowly feeling my way along. I want to record videos, sometimes while I'm driving, and singing along with the radio. Not sure the best equipment or arrangement to use; I'll probably end-up experimenting a bit. Dash cam? Go Pro? My phone? Etc.

  • Dang assuming everyone has a $600 budget to start with 😂

    Reply
  • I think you don’t know what “essential” means 😂 but thank you for the good tips! 🎉

    Reply
  • $1,000 computer MUST HAVE?? uh, gotta be a less expensive option for beginners.
    What about a PC using Filmora for editing?

    Reply
  • Very good information but this gear checklist is very overpriced for someone who is just getting into YouTube

    Reply
  • oh sir this is amazing! you have no idea how grateful i am. cheers from IRAN
