In my YouTube video below I show how you can create a good set to start recording your videos, with 2 studio softbox kits, at a cost of €40 each: 85 Watt fluorescent lamp with neutral light, the stand, the umbrella diffuser and a bag to carry the kit.
With another very small investment I recommend you also buy an accessory to prevent the light from spreading excessively and contaminating the background: the honeycomb.
Many people, including me, might appreciate lighting greece consumer mobile number list with just 1 light point that, directed correctly, creates a play of light and shadow on the face.
By adding a second light, however, you can obtain a homogeneous light on the entire face. But, for personal taste, I prefer a positioning of 3 lights that gives more depth to the face.
The point is this: position the lights to create your ideal set, which reflects your personal brand and the feelings you want to communicate.
In my YouTube video I show you different light placements and their effects on the recording.
Of course I am talking to people who are just starting to record, not professionals. They are probably already tearing their hair out…
Low video quality, with good content is forgivable. A video with excellent quality and content, but with terrible audio is difficult to forgive , it's the first thing you notice.
Also because having good audio means optimizing your work : you will be able to reuse the audio on other platforms such as a podcast.

Having done this quick overview of equipment to start shooting your video course, I would like to talk about another topic that I consider very important: how to stay in front of the camera?
vary your tone of voice and gestures to make the video less monotonous;
always keep the energy and emphasis high while you speak, it may seem exaggerated to you while you shoot, but I assure you that for those who watch you and for yourself, when you see yourself on video, it will be fine;
always smile , avoid expressionlessness;
