I pretty much spent the entire day today recording videos over at our home video studio. My business partners, Joe Fier, and I built this very professional studio for a little under a thousand dollars and it makes ultra professional videos. You can easily do the same and create a home video studio (just ignore the cost of rent).
I'm not going to try to sell you on any of the equipment or anything but I thought it would be cool to show you the studio and tell you what equipment we used to build it.
It's a pretty awesome setup and the videos we've been able to crank out from here have been amazing.
Here's a quick look at what the studio looks like:
So here's the breakdown of the studio:
Rent: $400/month – We are paying for an office space that we converted in to this studio. We did this so we can have a dedicated video room. We both do a lot of videos and when you have a setup at home, it can be a major pain. Usually you need to set up the lights, the green screen and the camera every single time you want to make a video and then pull them all down when you're done. This can be a major chore. Having a dedicated space allows us to just jump over to the studio, hit record, and get to work.
This video is about my home recording studio setup for beginners in 2018. Find out what equipment I use to make my music. SHARE THIS VIDEO: https://youtu.be/. Welcome to the July 2018 release of Visual Studio Code. There are a number of significant updates in this version that we hope you will like, some of the key highlights include: Breadcrumbs - Breadcrumb navigation lets you jump to symbols and files in your workspace. If you're looking for one of the best home studio mics under 500 dollars, for the purpose of recording an acoustic instrument (like a guitar) and some other general recording applications like drums, guitar amps, and vocals, check out the AKG Pro Audio C214 studio mic. It was designed to be a relatively inexpensive microphone for professional. But as most people agreethe best PC laptops for music tend to be the best PC laptops in general, and especially for content creator, such as film makers who need raw power. They als tend to be used. So here are 7 of the most popular and powerful options when it comes to professional, HP ProBook G7 – (Amazon/B&H) Asus Zenbook 14 –.
Next month we're going to start renting out the video studio as well. So we'll be able to cover our monthly costs by allowing one or two people per month to jump in and use the studio. So this cost will eventually be a wash.
The Camera: Canon 60D: $230 (used) / Nikon D7000: $500 (used) – Joe and I both already had good DSLR cameras before creating this studio so we had no new costs for cameras going in to this. Having two cameras allows us to film multiple angles in a single take. You definitely don't need a camera this expensive to get extremely high quality videos. A good GoPro will do the trick just fine.
The Tripod: Pistol Grip Tripod: $60 – This is a great, heavy-duty tripod. I specifically love this tripod because the pistol grip makes it super easy to adjust. Just grab the trigger and point the camera where you want it. Download slicer 3d printer. Super simple. It's also great because I'm tall and this tripod lifts high to line the camera up with my face.
The Microphone: Audio-Technica ATR-3350: $29 – This mic is awesome. It's a tiny lapel mic with a super long cord. Just run it under your shirt and you get awesome sound quality and a low-profile mic. Can't beat the price either. We have a couple of these in our studio.
The Green Screen: Cowboy Studio 10'x20′ Muslin Screen: $50 – This is the exact green screen that we use in the studio. It works great. I'm sure there's cheaper options out there and I'm sure they're all pretty much the same.

The Green Screen Mounts: Cowboy Studio 3 Roller Mount: $58 X images download. – This is the exact mount that we have mounted to our wall for the screen. We intend to get a white screen and possibly a blue or a black screen but right now, we just have the green screen mounted on it.
The Lights: Cowboy Studio 2275 Light Kit: $158 – We actually have two of these lighting kits because Joe and I both had a set of them before we got the studio. In most scenarios, however, three lights is plenty to light your screen and your subject.

The Teleprompter: TMP100: $198 – This is a teleprompter that syncs up to your iPad. You basically hook it up to your camera put your iPad inside of it and it reflects whatever's on your iPad on to a mirror in front of the camera. You can read right off of it and it always looks like you're looking straight in to the camera. It's pretty amazing and really helps you knock out quality videos in a single take.
