sandfaydontplay if the shadow is on the wall, distance yourself from the wall. Keep moving away from it until the shadow is gone. OR get a work light or two and put them low behind you shooting up at the wall to get rid of the shadows. I’m a good 8 feet away from the wall you see behind me AND I have a light behind me lighting the wall up. What you have is fine, you just have to learn how to adjust them.
well, lets watch his videos, get better at our craft and make him sweat that way, what say ?? BTW Dee, I remember you said 10 livestreams ago you will sub to my channel and you never grhhh, well you never had a channel then. I am just kidding, but hey wanted to share my recent and best veideo so far th-cam.com/video/zuClsur4w1Y/w-d-xo.html. Just to make it easy for you to see my video (pun intented) hah
Great tips Dee! I do everything on my phone so I will definitely subscribe and stay tuned in! I was sent here by the great man Brian G. Glad to see you doing so great already 👍 keep it up.
CreepyDan's AirgunArsenal Brian G The Great as they call him in Asia. 🤗 Thanks for checking the channel out. I hope I have content that can help you in some way.
Gotta say, it takes me forever to edit on my iphone using iMovie. When i split music and audio clips they jump all over the place and it is sucha pain to drag and drop them trying to get them where they need to be. I have to drag them with my finger over and over and often it takes many attempts to get a single clip in place. It’s so convenient shooting with your phone and all but Im leaning to getting a camera soon. I remember editing in the computer (which i did until my camera broke a couple years ago) being a bit faster than this.
Mother Muse I still prefer editing video on my desktop, even if the footage is from my phone, for the exact reason you say. I have large fingers and it’s difficult to make the cuts and move things around on the phone editors. However, the more I do it the better I get. But I’m 100x faster on my desktop when it comes to actual video editing.
No such thing as a stupid question. I plug mine into the computer via USB and transfer the data. If you have an Apple computer you can use Air Drop. For me, I find the cable is the quickest and I bought an extra one that stays plugged in so I always have it there.
i've had the same problem with audio when i'm editing where things will be off. i have even had this problem when not detaching the sound files. or when i decide to download it to my phone after i am happy, i have to go back and redo it because certain parts will be soundless. my friend has imovie on his computer and he can edit so much easier than i can on my iphone. but it is getting a little easier with each video.
Dee, just watched your first three videos. Great stuff. This year I've decided to really make an effort with TH-cam, and you'll be one of the creators helping me along. I'm a full time Airstreamer (I live in an Airstream....aka trailer trash) so all of my TH-cam work is done with mobile tech. I can sit in the desert running on solar in my Airstream and share videos, or I can be hooked up in a park with full Wi-Fi. When I'm doing outdoor video I use a Lav mic with my iPhone, and I favor Voice Record Pro, so glad to know it's one of your recommended apps! Thanks for starting this channel and I'll look forward to getting some more mobile ideas from you!
Dee, I'm up and running. My TH-cam Channel has been around for years but nothing was consistently posted. Over the years I collected random subscribers so I actually have over 1000 subscribers randomly. This year I decided to make a concerted effort on TH-cam. Covering full time living and working from an RV, running my business, travel, and mobile tech for RV'ers. Still need to zero in on my audience as the bulk of RVers are retirement age, but I'm interested in expanding on working from the road. I'm a "young" RV'er, and there are more and more mobile workers out there, so trying to cover topics for them. Still learning the ins and outs of TH-cam, and I follow along with Nick and TubeBuddy as well (found both last month). Thanks again for your new series, really good so far!
This is awesome! The noise was the reason I stopped using my phone to get footage. I didn't know you could connect a Lavalier mic to an iPhone. You are a life saver!
Thank you for the tips Dee. I have a microphone that a rarely use with my camera and I'm hadn't thought about the possibility of using it with my phone until I watched your other video and had a lightbulb moment.
I'll have to check it out tomorrow and see if it fits. It can't be any worse than my first attempt to use it with my camera last week. I spent an entire day filming without realizing that apparently I'd failed to get it to actually turn on so everything was silent. LOL, I won't be making that mistake twice.
I am enjoying this series. I only use my iPhone 8 to shoot and edit all my videos and I have almost 600 videos on my channel. I would like a tutorial on the settings for an external mic. I currently use Zoom iQ5 and windscreen. Do you know the Zoom mics? Is the Rode SmartLav mic better than the Zoom ones? Thanks 🙏🏻
Lou Arnold - TH-camr Cristã Hi Lou, I have a Zoom H4 and H5 but I haven’t experimented with your mic yet. I wouldn’t say one is better than the other, the smart lav+ and zoom are just different and used in different situations. Are you happy with the sound it gives you? If not, what’s the problem you’re having? My Zoom external recorders are sensitive and pick up a lot of surrounding noise so I’m not sure I’d use them for my voice unless it was very close to my mouth and I could turn down the gain. You should also be able to adjust the width of the signal it picks up to 90 degrees instead of 120, which will pick up more surrounding noise. Zoom makes solid product, you might just have to play with it a bit more to make it work for you. If I see one here I’ll pick one up and do a video about it.
Dee Nimmin Hi Dee, thanks so much for replying. Yes, I use 90 degrees and have my mic gain on 5. But I have the other switch set to ‘limit’ instead of ‘auto gain’. I can’t actually hear any difference between the two. Do you know what the difference is? When I edit, I turn the sound up on iMovie and LumaFusion. I don’t really have a problem with my zoom mic, I just want to get better quality sound on my vids and I’m prepared to spend money on it. I thought maybe the smartLav was an improvement as it’s newer than my old zoom! Thanks again
Love this! Very straight forward reviews! And actually reviews what and how audios actually sounds like with different mics and environment. Thank you!
Love it! You and Nick do the most helpful videos on TH-cam for aspiring TH-camrs!! You make everything clear and easy to both understand AND apply!! Appreciate you guys!!
Dee Nimmin Got lucky. I'm upgrading my audio now. XLR mic, Audio Interface, and learning basic audio editing. Nick's video made me want better audio since I can't afford better video.
I'm new to the channel, and I followed your advice with the surfaces, it worked wonders, I'm now recording at my dad's car with its inside covered with blankets, there is just 1 problem left, my voice
came here from Brian G Johnson channel. i film and edit solely on my iphone using imovie and i really appreciate what you are doing here because there is so much i still don't know and want to learn. can't wait for more!
I like Voice record pro also. My favorite budget mic is the MOVO VXR10 and the videomicro from Rode. A lavaliere mic is normally my last choice when I choose a microphone. If you are going to wear a ball cap one of the bast places to put the mic is under the brim of the hat near the end. That way you wont get the clothing noise or inconsistent sound when you turn your head.
DIYCameraGuy The true value of a video is usually found in the comments. That is a FANTASTIC tip putting the mic on the rim of the hat!!!! Never heard of that. Thank you. 👍
I have been recording sound for films since the 90's. I may have learned a few tricks over the years. I totally agree about the comment being the most valuable part of videos. There is so much great knowledge out there and I love when people share it.
Sir please tell us if we want to screen record which software should we use Nick sir says DU Screen recorder which one would you suggest and can you please make a tutorial on it
Voice Record Pro is excellent. AudioShare also has a high quality recorder too if you’re willing to spend a couple of bucks. Mic? I love my Shure MV88. Expensive but a game changer.
Great video :) I've spent tens of $thousnds on equipment for my channel, yet more and more I find I'm using my phone, a gimbal and a 'Lav. The only other thing I add is a Zoom H1 so that there is no cable going to the phone to get tangled up xox
Cutting the Caboose Hey there :-) I kind of got hooked on the smart lav after testing them in this video. So much easier. And right on about the Zoom, those are fantastic. Any voice over is done to a Zoom h4 and it’s also used to accept the XLR from the shotgun mic then plug into the camera to pass the audio.
Awesome video! Really enjoying your content. I use the Rode SmartLav with my iPhone 6S Plus. The Boya sounds great and seems like an affordable option. 👍of course 😀
Dee pretty much all of my vids are with the Rode SmartLav unless I make the mistake of quickly trying to record some content without reaching in my bag for the Rode. I have a Rode SmartLav and extension cable with me pretty much all the time
I enjoyed the sound from the Rode microphone best. I'm more interested in a shotgun microphone to narrow down the sounds to single birds, farther away than my phone can reach.
Please make a video about advance mobile video editing,stuff like video overwriting while keeping the audio, animations and whatever it is possible to get it done by a phone
Hi Dee, I have the PowerDewise Lav mic I use with my android phone. I'm new, I didn't realize I could adjust the mic after plugging it into my phone. Thanks for the tip!
Hey,Dee! I have a question to you. "In some Reveiw vedios we see that the person(channel owner) is not presenting the device/Gadget practically but he is reviewing with some exciting vedio clips from their(product) website.Isn't there a copyright strike issue there??Will you tell me how they do such vedio without copyright strike??"
That's a tricky one. Depending on how you use the content, you *might* be able to claim Fair Use on the content. However, there is always a risk. It comes down to one thing... if you don't have permission to use the content, either get permission or don't use it. It's not worth getting a strike. In regards to reviews, contact the company and ask them if it's OK for you to use content off of their site to promote their product. If they don't reply, don't use their content. If you're playing the long game, and you should be, it's better to not take the chance.
Great video Dee! I didn’t imagine your content would be so on point. I shoot with IPhone and edit with adobe- so this was 1000% helpful. (Little basic, but I am looking forward to those app / settings tutorials.
I just read that over again and it sounds like a back handed compliment. I thought you were teaching editing on a phone - I have zero desire to do that - everything else about the Iphone and recording i am ready to learn. Specifically settings and what support gear. ALSO please point out when / if we're missing out on something because we don;t have a full camera. (that's going to help me decide when it's time to get serious about upgrading). Sorry for the back-handed compliment.
Jeff Lotter, Esq. Things I would look into if you’re going to shoot a lot with your phone. 1) A solid tripod 2) Some sort of microphone 3) Filmic Pro app (or something that gives you full manual control). That said, what type of content are you shooting? That would help me suggest things you may need.
Hey, thanks for the test. How do you see the difference between a mid-range smartphone (e.g. Oppo A91) and a simple field recorder (e.g. Tascam DR-05X) ? Would the sound quality with the smartphone+ external micro be sufficient for relatively high resolution /difficult sound material like rain sounds, wind, etc. which doesn't just sound like frying fat in a pan ;-) ?
I bought a comica shotgun mic, it has adapters for smartphone or dslr connections. It has completely changed my audio game. I dont use an app though, I edit the audio in resolve while doing my video. It does really well in my opinion.
(Sigh) I forgot to hit the bell. I'm playing catch-up on your uploads. Back of the classroom for me. Anyway, another great one! I just sent a fellow creator an Audio Technica ATR3350 because he had massive audio reflection issues using his mobile device at a distance (and in a kitchen to boot. Holy reflective surfaces, Batman!) Can't stress enough that distance makes even a great mic sound worse. Proximity to vocal mic (unless you're recording ambient effects) is key.
Extreme Food Reviews You’re spot on. I’m having trouble with my shotgun in this space. Hard surfaces everywhere. It’s so bootleg of you saw behind the scenes. LOL
We've had a similar problem being that we film across a table (distance + reflection) in an already reflective room. Our answer was to use a microphone isolation shield behind a Audio Technica, side-address AT2020 cardoid pattern mic just under camera view. At least the mic is now isolated so that it's only picking up what comes straight at it, not from behind or the sides. Plus, we get the added bonus of having our mic look like we've built a mini shrine to it (which is ironic because we do seem to worship at its altar, hoping for that sweet, smooth sonic clarity)
Good tips Dee....i use the boya mic for phones.....good point you raised regarding Tip,ring,ring sleeve.....i got caught out with this on an older phone.
i love this video and am glad i stumbled on this (although i'm already a subscriber as well as with nick). the reason i'm glad i watched this video is because... the cheaper boya (which was also the very first mic i bought and used but no more coz my dog gnawed the cords to pieces) sounded way much better than the expensive rode.
I was hoping to see a 4th light pop up in the background, and each new video introduced a new light bulb to see if anyone notices :P I had a lot of problem with audio this past year during summer and spring. Birds tweeting through the day, and having to try and suffer through a hot day with turning fans and aircon off to record. Not fun :/ Both those mics sounded pretty average in studio (are there any more expensive options that sound the same or similar to the recording microphone?) but they sound great for outdoors!
Beanie Draws Hey Beanie! Yea, I’m gonna keep sneaking them in. I agree with the mics, they shine outside where inside they are average. Where I’m recording in the room is a funky spot and not the best for sound, I’m struggling getting the audio together in that location. I feel ya with the noise outside. We have roosters and airplanes flying overhead. It’s frustrating at times.
I live in Thailand. You really don't know what's going to get in the way of a shoot here. I'm not lying, we have 2 elephants kept near where I live and about 1000 chickens. I've literally almost crashed into an elephant walking on the road behind our condo. hahah It keeps you on your toes.
I have the Rode SmartLav mic and it sounds great. Definitely worth the $$. And sounds heaps better than my blue snowball $150 mic. Awesome for the phone.
Dee Nimmin I actually thought mine was faulty it was so quiet but no, it's just them. Need that riiight up to your mouth to get some volume. Whispering with the Lav is louder... Trial and error! Which is why these types of videos are helpful for people 👍👍
Guys you don't need those mics you can just use the mic in your headphones i got mine for about $10 ( they were on a discount they are usually $25 )and they are so powerful and so is the mic. pretty cool right. Try it out!
I bought some Saramonic microphones at Best Buy. Waiting to test them in the field. However I liked the Boys mic outside and the Rode better inside. Just me I guess.
Hey Dee awesome video my friend looks like you have been doing this for years! I follow both Brian G and your bro! Both said to check you out! Glad I did, cant wait t see more...
Hi Dee, i heard about your channel from Nick and thought I’d pop over and check out your vids. I like what I’ve seen so far and am looking forward to seeing you make more vids soon ☺️ Happy YouTubing!

Hey Cody! Thanks man, appreciate that! This was the 3rd video I made on this channel. Should probably update it.
See you soon!
Great to see you Dee! 😎
Professor Nez PROFESSOR NEZ!!!!! Hey! Good to see you too!
Sir please tell us if we want to screen record which software should we use Nick sir says DU Screen recorder which one would you suggest and can you please make a tutorial on it
DU Recorder for either Android or Apple unless you're on iOS 11, then use the built in screen recorder.
Thankyou for sharing. You explain really welI had to watch all the way to the end which I rarely do.
Voice Record Pro is excellent. AudioShare also has a high quality recorder too if you’re willing to spend a couple of bucks. Mic? I love my Shure MV88. Expensive but a game changer.
Great video :)
I've spent tens of $thousnds on equipment for my channel, yet more and more I find I'm using my phone, a gimbal and a 'Lav. The only other thing I add is a Zoom H1 so that there is no cable going to the phone to get tangled up xox
Cutting the Caboose Hey there :-) I kind of got hooked on the smart lav after testing them in this video. So much easier. And right on about the Zoom, those are fantastic. Any voice over is done to a Zoom h4 and it’s also used to accept the XLR from the shotgun mic then plug into the camera to pass the audio.
Cutting the Caboose me too ! It’s so much more efficient to do everything on the phone!
Thank You Dee Nimmin
I'm going to try them for a video right now
Right on!
Wow i had no I idea about these mics I always complain about my audio after I have finish recording my videos on s9 thank you so much.
Happy to help!
Awesome video! Really enjoying your content. I use the Rode SmartLav with my iPhone 6S Plus. The Boya sounds great and seems like an affordable option. 👍of course 😀
USNERDOC Hey hey! All of your vids are with the smart lav?
Dee pretty much all of my vids are with the Rode SmartLav unless I make the mistake of quickly trying to record some content without reaching in my bag for the Rode. I have a Rode SmartLav and extension cable with me pretty much all the time
Dee you rock man! Look like this runs in the family! great video! Just subscribed and looking so see more of your awesome content!
Bob Brown Thank you! Appreciate the support.
This was very helpful, thanks
You're welcome.
Dee Nimmin can you do a video about mobile editing software, right now I use Viva Video but if there's a better option is love to know
Very nice video, keep up the hard work and good luck with your channel :)
Boodolf Thank you 👍
This video is so underrated, great video thank you
Thanks! Appreciate that.
I enjoyed the sound from the Rode microphone best. I'm more interested in a shotgun microphone to narrow down the sounds to single birds, farther away than my phone can reach.
Mr Dee! U making TH-cam easier for us mobile tubers, thanks for this great video🇺🇬👍
Thanks! 👊🏻
Awesome video. Thanks for this. Will add a mic to my device and use these tips.
Thanks! Hope it helped.
Please make a video about advance mobile video editing,stuff like video overwriting while keeping the audio, animations and whatever it is possible to get it done by a phone
I will. But I have to start with some basics first so everyone can follow along.
Thanks, I appreciate it
"Get everyone out of the room, unless you want your pets in the video!"
What if my brother is my pet? :3
max lmao bruh
Excellent, your channel is EXACTLY what I need to be subscribed to, I make alot of video on my other channel with my phone.
That’s great to hear and welcome! 👍👊🏻
Hi Dee, I have the PowerDewise Lav mic I use with my android phone. I'm new, I didn't realize I could adjust the mic after plugging it into my phone. Thanks for the tip!
Happy to help!
Excellent video, great quality, awesome editing and effects. Love your channel!
Toddler Videos Thank you. 😀
Awesome video love this.
Thanks man!
I love this! In fact I have been looking for an app suggestion video for this mic since. Thank you
Hey,Dee! I have a question to you.
"In some Reveiw vedios we see
that the person(channel owner) is not presenting the device/Gadget practically but he is reviewing with some exciting vedio clips from their(product) website.Isn't there a copyright strike issue there??Will you tell me how they do such vedio without copyright strike??"
That's a tricky one. Depending on how you use the content, you *might* be able to claim Fair Use on the content. However, there is always a risk. It comes down to one thing... if you don't have permission to use the content, either get permission or don't use it. It's not worth getting a strike. In regards to reviews, contact the company and ask them if it's OK for you to use content off of their site to promote their product. If they don't reply, don't use their content. If you're playing the long game, and you should be, it's better to not take the chance.
Great video Dee! I didn’t imagine your content would be so on point. I shoot with IPhone and edit with adobe- so this was 1000% helpful. (Little basic, but I am looking forward to those app / settings tutorials.
Jeff Lotter, Esq. Thanks for the kind words, Jeff, I appreciate it. Tutorials on the way!
I just read that over again and it sounds like a back handed compliment. I thought you were teaching editing on a phone - I have zero desire to do that - everything else about the Iphone and recording i am ready to learn. Specifically settings and what support gear. ALSO please point out when / if we're missing out on something because we don;t have a full camera. (that's going to help me decide when it's time to get serious about upgrading). Sorry for the back-handed compliment.
Jeff Lotter, Esq. Things I would look into if you’re going to shoot a lot with your phone. 1) A solid tripod 2) Some sort of microphone 3) Filmic Pro app (or something that gives you full manual control).
That said, what type of content are you shooting? That would help me suggest things you may need.
Thank you Dee nimmin it helped me lot in my videos
Dolby on is very nice I am using that
*Dee and Nick, that's cute.*
A.S.K. Air Two peas in a pod. 🤣
Hey, thanks for the test. How do you see the difference between a mid-range smartphone (e.g. Oppo A91) and a simple field recorder (e.g. Tascam DR-05X) ? Would the sound quality with the smartphone+ external micro be sufficient for relatively high resolution /difficult sound material like rain sounds, wind, etc. which doesn't just sound like frying fat in a pan ;-) ?
Chronic disable people living in systemic poverty can make a boya cable work. Thanks for the tips man.
👍🏻 The cable can also be used for repelling.
The microphones sound great! THANK YOU for providing pertinent information for voiceover artist such as myself.
I was looking for this
I bought a comica shotgun mic, it has adapters for smartphone or dslr connections. It has completely changed my audio game. I dont use an app though, I edit the audio in resolve while doing my video. It does really well in my opinion.
I just sit in my closet for every voiceover...well it works
Closets are a great place to record voiceovers!!!
Thanks dee
Stella Sylvester You’re most welcome!
Another great video Dee, you're gonna kill it with your channel! Boom! 👊🏻😁
Sophie With Markers Thanks, Sophie. I hope so. 😊
Thank you for your tips on choosing the mic. I really gonna choose Boya BY-M1
Well done... ;-)
bangkokandmore Thank you!
What, another Nimmin, great stuff..
Philippines/Oz Fun With JLB There’s two of us! :-) welcome!
Thanks for a great tip! Can you do a best screen recorders video
Findominator I have one coming soon!
Dee Nimmin thanks!
(Sigh) I forgot to hit the bell. I'm playing catch-up on your uploads. Back of the classroom for me.
Anyway, another great one! I just sent a fellow creator an Audio Technica ATR3350 because he had massive audio reflection issues using his mobile device at a distance (and in a kitchen to boot. Holy reflective surfaces, Batman!)
Can't stress enough that distance makes even a great mic sound worse.
Proximity to vocal mic (unless you're recording ambient effects) is key.
Extreme Food Reviews You’re spot on. I’m having trouble with my shotgun in this space. Hard surfaces everywhere. It’s so bootleg of you saw behind the scenes. LOL
We've had a similar problem being that we film across a table (distance + reflection) in an already reflective room. Our answer was to use a microphone isolation shield behind a Audio Technica, side-address AT2020 cardoid pattern mic just under camera view.
At least the mic is now isolated so that it's only picking up what comes straight at it, not from behind or the sides.
Plus, we get the added bonus of having our mic look like we've built a mini shrine to it (which is ironic because we do seem to worship at its altar, hoping for that sweet, smooth sonic clarity)
Extreme Food Reviews I would love to see a pic of that set up when you can. When you get around to it send me an email please. Thanks!
Will do.
Got it, thanks! Will reply there.
Just discovered this now... thanks for this tutorial! 😍
Thanks great love your videos
Thank you, appreciate it.
Will get the boya this month. I can wait ps i saw one of the comments here to record in a closet and honestlt its working pretty well.
Good tips Dee....i use the boya mic for phones.....good point you raised regarding Tip,ring,ring sleeve.....i got caught out with this on an older phone.
Darren Thompson. I got nailed on that too!
Nick:PC platform
Dee:Android/IOS platform
You are the best Dee
That's how we roll! Thanks!!! :-)
valuable information about sound recording devices Very helpful to You Tubers
i love this video and am glad i stumbled on this (although i'm already a subscriber as well as with nick). the reason i'm glad i watched this video is because... the cheaper boya (which was also the very first mic i bought and used but no more coz my dog gnawed the cords to pieces) sounded way much better than the expensive rode.
Glad you enjoyed it! It's a great little mic.
I was hoping to see a 4th light pop up in the background, and each new video introduced a new light bulb to see if anyone notices :P
I had a lot of problem with audio this past year during summer and spring. Birds tweeting through the day, and having to try and suffer through a hot day with turning fans and aircon off to record. Not fun :/
Both those mics sounded pretty average in studio (are there any more expensive options that sound the same or similar to the recording microphone?) but they sound great for outdoors!
Beanie Draws Hey Beanie! Yea, I’m gonna keep sneaking them in.
I agree with the mics, they shine outside where inside they are average. Where I’m recording in the room is a funky spot and not the best for sound, I’m struggling getting the audio together in that location.
I feel ya with the noise outside. We have roosters and airplanes flying overhead. It’s frustrating at times.
One of those comments that I had to read twice.
You have roosters flying overhead as well as airplanes?
I live in Thailand. You really don't know what's going to get in the way of a shoot here. I'm not lying, we have 2 elephants kept near where I live and about 1000 chickens. I've literally almost crashed into an elephant walking on the road behind our condo. hahah It keeps you on your toes.
Finally an English video :'')
I have the Rode SmartLav mic and it sounds great. Definitely worth the $$. And sounds heaps better than my blue snowball $150 mic.
Awesome for the phone.
I totally agree. I'm not that impressed with the Snowball mic.
Dee Nimmin I actually thought mine was faulty it was so quiet but no, it's just them. Need that riiight up to your mouth to get some volume.
Whispering with the Lav is louder...
Trial and error! Which is why these types of videos are helpful for people 👍👍
Love your videos and best tips ever
Pewdiepie the awesome Vloger Thanks man 👍
Amazing bro...👌👍
DN DROIDs 《STFSU》 Thanks man 👍
Guys you don't need those mics you can just use the mic in your headphones i got mine for about $10 ( they were on a discount they are usually $25 )and they are so powerful and so is the mic. pretty cool right. Try it out!
Thanks! What phone do you have?
Dee Nimmin i have a Tesla and an iPhone 5
I bought some Saramonic microphones at Best Buy. Waiting to test them in the field. However I liked the Boys mic outside and the Rode better inside. Just me I guess.
Hey Dee awesome video my friend looks like you have been doing this for years! I follow both Brian G and your bro! Both said to check you out! Glad I did, cant wait t see more...
Bob Brown Thanks Bob, appreciate the kind words. Brian G and Nick are hard acts to follow. 😊
Exactly the info I was looking for. Cheers buddy 👍
Glad I could help
Hi Dee, i heard about your channel from Nick and thought I’d pop over and check out your vids. I like what I’ve seen so far and am looking forward to seeing you make more vids soon ☺️ Happy YouTubing!
Hello Weird Heather! I'm happy to hear Nick sent ya over and thank you for the warm welcome and for watching! I hope to see you around.
I cant thank you enough for making this video
Thanks for watching it!
Thanks, I really needed a video like this
the Tension Great! Thanks for watching
Very useful tips for me as I only have my smartphone for recording. thanks..👌
That’s all you need to get started!
Great video but I have a microphone that I don't need that
Then you're good to go!
Dee Nimmin thanks
