Hi all, not sure if this is the right forum to be post in. Had a long break from uploading but before I get back into it, I want to add more equipment to my arsenal. I'm a guitarist so most of my content will be recorded indoors, does anyone have any advice or can point me in the right...

Hi, This may be a bit specific but I'm not sure where else to ask. I am creating youtube instructional videos for guitar. I found that, even if I zoom or play with the lights the highest strings on my guitar are not visible in the video. I need them to be visible because I refer to them in...

Hey guys, I feel like I'm getting good at greenscreen in my latest video on THE WITCH. Still, I am not that happy about the lighting. There is a lot of glare on my glasses and some shadow. I usually have three lights to utilize. Do you guys have any advice? - Jared

So I've began recording IRL videos recently, of me opening Pokémon cards. For such videos, will a general room light and an office lamp right above where I open them would be enough light to properly see everything?

Hello Friends! I apologize if this is in the wrong category but I'm pretty sure this is the correct one" So I've been making youtube videos for a year now but I have recently broke my old studio lights that didn't work so well to start with. And since I live in Canada it's always snowing or...

Hi guys whatsup! Hope you are all well. Just a quick question(mod feel free to move this if its in the wrong place): When shooting your actual videos (not recording gameplays) how do you get the lighting right? Do you just record in the morning when it's bright or do you situate some of those...

I just got in to learning about audio and video so I may not know the right terms. However, the best I can explain, my camera goes from light to dark depending on how I stand and sometimes changes color. I don't have my white balance set to auto. Anything else I should check? Any ideas? My...

Hi I have been experimenting with doing some reviews of gadgets, but seems not to get the lighting right. It a combination of talking head and table top recordings. Now I'm consider investing in a light setup, but there are too many options, sizes, and power levels so I need some advice where...

So I made this neat little mocha where it was pretty straight forward with the recipe (and an idea I wish I thought of sooner!). I changed up the lighting a bit via some angles and added an extra light. I also edited out more background noises since my last video was a bit fuzzy with the audio...

Hey you guys so I just filmed a wig review video on my channel and I need feedback on the lighting. I used two clip lights on stands and a (cheapo) ring light on the camera lens. I was also in front of the largest window in my house. The lighting still seems dark to me and I was wondering if...

Hey guys ! I have a camera (that i want to upgrade) and a tripod and that is about it. So i want to invest in some nice lighting that is not to expensive ! What do people recomend ? Should i be investing in a good mic also ? What do you use for your filming set up ?

I love looking around at all the professional gear that people have, but I don't have the budget to buy anything. My wife says I can buy stuff when I make it big, so basically never. I do love trying to make stuff myself, so I've gone the DIY route for some of our stuff. We just got a new...

I have a very crude DIY setup in my basement. I have a pair of 2 tube fluorescent work lights on either side of my green screen. Then I made a light box with 3 fairly big compact fluorescent bulbs that I use to light our faces. It does the job on the Green screen, but I'd obviously like it to be...

I'm working on getting my camera and lighting setup and am a total lighting noob. I asked a non-YouTube friend of mine about lighting and they said to use halogen lights because they wouldn't cast as many shadows or something like that lol. I guess I'm just wondering if that's true? And also...
