1 00:00:00,150 --> 00:00:04,710 Okay now let's concentrate on things that a lot of beginner YouTube birds are concentrating way too 2 00:00:04,710 --> 00:00:05,420 much on. 3 00:00:05,490 --> 00:00:06,930 And it is and equipment. 4 00:00:06,930 --> 00:00:09,650 They think that you need a huge equipment in order to grow on YouTube. 5 00:00:09,660 --> 00:00:12,050 This absolutely B.S. It's not true. 6 00:00:12,220 --> 00:00:18,990 But there are some equipments that you need to have in order to succeed on YouTube not just to succeed 7 00:00:19,020 --> 00:00:24,000 in order not to fail on YouTube because there is some things that you need that will give you a baseline 8 00:00:24,210 --> 00:00:29,550 in order to not shrink your challenge not doom your channel from all your videos from the very beginner 9 00:00:29,850 --> 00:00:35,610 and I'm going to give you an exhaustive list of the things that you need absolutely need it as an as 10 00:00:35,610 --> 00:00:40,560 a beginner like absolutely exhausted as exhaustive list least and we're going to start right now with 11 00:00:40,560 --> 00:00:45,640 it and all the things that you need is the microphone. 12 00:00:45,700 --> 00:00:46,610 That's it. 13 00:00:46,810 --> 00:00:47,900 That's that's really it. 14 00:00:47,980 --> 00:00:49,300 That's all that you need. 15 00:00:49,460 --> 00:00:54,610 The good microphone is all that you need to have a good youtube channel. 16 00:00:54,610 --> 00:00:58,570 That's all that you need to have a YouTube channel. 17 00:00:58,570 --> 00:00:59,890 It's weird right. 18 00:00:59,890 --> 00:01:05,410 The people out you probably thought that I would say Oh you do the camera you need a fantastic computer 19 00:01:05,610 --> 00:01:09,280 all you need is something something something something lighting etc cetera. 20 00:01:09,310 --> 00:01:14,300 Yes all those things are good although things are very very good. 21 00:01:14,440 --> 00:01:18,730 But microphone is essential for the beginner. 22 00:01:18,730 --> 00:01:25,480 We're going to talk about the stuff that you with will be useful in the future for more a grown up channel. 23 00:01:25,570 --> 00:01:30,720 But as a beginner for the person who have not done individuals will have done very few videos. 24 00:01:30,730 --> 00:01:37,530 The microphone is an essential thing to have and you need to know what microphone to choose. 25 00:01:37,530 --> 00:01:40,870 Like you absolutely need to know how to choose your microphone. 26 00:01:40,870 --> 00:01:43,770 Otherwise you're going to have some problems. 27 00:01:43,810 --> 00:01:48,600 So let's just talk about the microphones because it's an essential equipment that you need. 28 00:01:48,610 --> 00:01:53,590 You have the three types of microphones that you can choose from and you can understand what type of 29 00:01:53,590 --> 00:01:59,920 microphones are with the pictures that three types are level your mikes their condenser mikes and dynamic 30 00:01:59,920 --> 00:02:03,940 mikes like you don't need to get very deep into this stuff. 31 00:02:03,940 --> 00:02:09,820 I don't suggest it to get very deep into the audio stuff because yeah there are things that are different 32 00:02:09,820 --> 00:02:11,870 with those but you do need to know. 33 00:02:11,890 --> 00:02:17,020 But at the standard level here mikes are the smaller mikes that is attached to a color condenser and 34 00:02:17,020 --> 00:02:22,240 dynamic mikes will be absolutely similar for you but they work a bit differently. 35 00:02:22,270 --> 00:02:28,090 You don't need to know exactly how they work but just know that dynamic mikes usually costs more because 36 00:02:28,090 --> 00:02:30,560 they are better because they. 37 00:02:30,820 --> 00:02:34,250 How can I say the filter out your environment a bit better. 38 00:02:34,300 --> 00:02:42,220 For example on concerts and on the big venues that dynamic mikes are used not the condenser mikes condenser 39 00:02:42,220 --> 00:02:49,000 mikes are usually the cheaper versions of the dynamic mikes and they work very well in well treated 40 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:49,840 rooms. 41 00:02:49,840 --> 00:02:50,850 That's what you need to know. 42 00:02:50,860 --> 00:02:55,570 That's all that you need to know between dynamic and condenser mikes level near mikes are always worse 43 00:02:55,570 --> 00:03:02,020 quality than condenser and dynamic Mike because they're much much much smaller but they are acceptable 44 00:03:02,020 --> 00:03:09,880 quality and because of their versatility I highly suggest to buy a level here Mike first and they are 45 00:03:09,880 --> 00:03:11,410 the cheapest one of the bunch. 46 00:03:11,410 --> 00:03:16,740 For example I mainly use for my videos like not right now but for my videos you can check that you can 47 00:03:16,740 --> 00:03:21,130 Nixon channel the majority of my videos has been recorded with the level leer Mike you can actually 48 00:03:21,130 --> 00:03:27,430 see it within the videos and the video audio quality is not bad it's pretty acceptable and pretty good 49 00:03:28,470 --> 00:03:30,810 it's not as good as condenser and dynamic make. 50 00:03:30,900 --> 00:03:37,750 Right now I'm recording it on a condenser Mike and it's a cold cleaner and has much more bass much more. 51 00:03:37,920 --> 00:03:44,560 It's much more each richer sound but it does not mean that level here mikes are actually bad. 52 00:03:44,640 --> 00:03:45,980 It's the cheapest version that you get. 53 00:03:45,990 --> 00:03:46,780 You can get. 54 00:03:46,930 --> 00:03:52,240 Or makes as cheap as 15 or even 10 dollars and I highly suggest you to go go for those ones. 55 00:03:52,260 --> 00:03:57,240 There are of course much more expensive live mikes but you do don't concentrate on expensive ones. 56 00:03:57,240 --> 00:04:02,270 Even though I myself use 15 dollar level here Mike and it's perfectly fine and I know a lot of YouTube 57 00:04:02,270 --> 00:04:06,260 bears who use even cheaper mikes and they're doing perfectly fine. 58 00:04:06,350 --> 00:04:09,580 But the thing is that it needs to be a separate microphone. 59 00:04:09,630 --> 00:04:13,600 That's what you need to do it needs to be a separate microphone. 60 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:15,490 COHEN By level here Mike. 61 00:04:15,570 --> 00:04:23,040 And then maybe you phone up the game and if you are merely recording your voice while sitting with the 62 00:04:23,040 --> 00:04:30,750 computer then focus on condenser mikes and after that if you are you have finances if you have enough 63 00:04:30,750 --> 00:04:33,210 money concentrated on dynamic mikes. 64 00:04:33,340 --> 00:04:39,870 There is also a fought for type of Mike that I did not talk about which is a shotgun mike but a shotgun 65 00:04:39,880 --> 00:04:47,880 mike is working mainly we're in junction with a camera with a well high end camera so you don't need 66 00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:49,650 any shotgun mike at the very beginning. 67 00:04:49,650 --> 00:04:55,450 Just concentrate on those three first and then think about the shotgun mike plus level here Mike. 68 00:04:55,470 --> 00:04:58,380 In many cases is as good if not better. 69 00:04:58,420 --> 00:05:03,980 And then many shorter than my 10 plus shotgun Mike's costs way more than cavalier Mike so constrained 70 00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:09,080 a level here Mike first but you may say OK Mike Foley is done OK. 71 00:05:09,090 --> 00:05:12,100 You are we will buy a microphone or you already have a microphone. 72 00:05:12,120 --> 00:05:13,580 What about camera. 73 00:05:13,680 --> 00:05:15,800 What about the video editing. 74 00:05:15,960 --> 00:05:17,700 Aren't they important. 75 00:05:17,700 --> 00:05:19,170 Don't you need them. 76 00:05:19,170 --> 00:05:25,770 Well actually yes you do but if there is high chance that you don't have a good microphone and you need 77 00:05:25,770 --> 00:05:27,650 to purchase it for your YouTube channel. 78 00:05:27,870 --> 00:05:34,440 And there is even a higher chance that you already have a camera because you can use any camera that 79 00:05:34,440 --> 00:05:40,290 you want and any camera that you have you can use the phone camera which is in majority of the cases 80 00:05:40,290 --> 00:05:45,530 will be the best camera you will have for really a long time on your YouTube channel. 81 00:05:45,610 --> 00:05:49,780 We're going to use any camera that you have any old camera you can even use a webcam. 82 00:05:49,890 --> 00:05:58,350 It's not a big problem because you can make your webcam look pretty good and people will forgive you 83 00:05:58,470 --> 00:06:03,440 for the webcam quality even though you're trying to make it look as best as possible. 84 00:06:03,510 --> 00:06:10,590 Phone camera looks already pretty great and people will forgive you bad camera quality of the content 85 00:06:10,590 --> 00:06:19,530 is good but they will not forgive you any bad audio and microphone quality people will not forgive you 86 00:06:19,530 --> 00:06:20,640 that. 87 00:06:20,700 --> 00:06:24,240 So just concentrate on good camera No not good. 88 00:06:24,290 --> 00:06:24,620 Sorry. 89 00:06:24,660 --> 00:06:28,680 Forgive the contract and good microphone don't Duncan straight and go to camera because cameras are 90 00:06:28,680 --> 00:06:30,010 much more expensive. 91 00:06:30,140 --> 00:06:36,180 You will need probably at least thousand dollar capital and in the broadcast tonight at this 500 dollar 92 00:06:36,180 --> 00:06:36,900 cam. 93 00:06:37,290 --> 00:06:42,920 If you're buying it used to top of your phone camera you have anything left. 94 00:06:42,970 --> 00:06:44,830 That's from last five years. 95 00:06:44,830 --> 00:06:48,830 You'll need at least five hundred dollars to top off your phone camera. 96 00:06:48,840 --> 00:06:53,500 So imagine how big of a investment it is. 97 00:06:53,550 --> 00:06:59,790 So you don't need to concentrate on camera at least at the very beginning of your youtube career. 98 00:06:59,790 --> 00:07:01,770 Now what about a computer what about an editing. 99 00:07:01,770 --> 00:07:06,170 Yes we can talk about this as well of course you can use your existing computer for your editing. 100 00:07:06,180 --> 00:07:12,600 You can use any computer for your editing and most importantly phones are so much powerful right now 101 00:07:12,600 --> 00:07:15,690 that you can edit your videos on phones and tablets. 102 00:07:15,690 --> 00:07:22,590 Plus you're not going to like edit like exceptionally powerful videos at the very beginning. 103 00:07:22,590 --> 00:07:28,380 You don't know how to edit and you will not need a very powerful computers or phones in order to edit 104 00:07:28,380 --> 00:07:29,350 your videos. 105 00:07:29,370 --> 00:07:34,890 Simple cutting is enough for you at the at the beginning because that's what the majority of people 106 00:07:34,890 --> 00:07:35,580 are doing. 107 00:07:35,580 --> 00:07:41,730 Simple cutting is enough for you and adding different tracks that's it like Ed video track or audio 108 00:07:41,730 --> 00:07:47,580 track on top of the whatever it is you do not you don't don't need any fancy effects for your videos 109 00:07:47,820 --> 00:07:55,590 especially for the YouTube videos and your photos and your existing computer will do just fine. 110 00:07:55,710 --> 00:07:57,310 Don't think about this too much. 111 00:07:57,360 --> 00:08:03,690 If you have exceptionally bad computer computer chances your phone is good enough because know usually 112 00:08:03,690 --> 00:08:11,190 the phone video editing software is well very well balanced and very well optimized. 113 00:08:11,190 --> 00:08:19,410 I myself added all of my videos including this course videos on my iPad or my tablet all of my videos 114 00:08:19,410 --> 00:08:23,520 on YouTube has been edited on the tablet. 115 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:26,610 That's how powerful the tablets and phones are nowadays. 116 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:32,140 So that's why you don't need to concentrate on buying new rig for your editing or for your or for your 117 00:08:32,140 --> 00:08:32,800 video. 118 00:08:32,920 --> 00:08:36,510 All you need to do is concentrate on your audio first. 119 00:08:36,520 --> 00:08:37,400 Well this will be it for today. 120 00:08:37,410 --> 00:08:38,920 Let's just go to the next one.
