Smooth set up. After watching different videos on TH-cam about studio set ups; makes me realize that there's not right or wrong way to have a TH-cam studio set up.
And here I was looking to buy another desk mounted poles/arms for my beginner setup when all I needed to do was use some of the extra arms my monitor desk mount has. I didn't know you can screw directly onto it. Your video had the tidbits of information I needed at my beginner setup. Thank you so much.
I wasn't expecting that large of a difference in the microphone placement especially with the efforts you went through with minimizing vocal bounce off the walls! Night and day difference
Yeah dude its crazy. people spend hundreds on expensive mics and then place them on the other side of the world. I'm trying to fix that one vid at a time lmao
@@Joey.Alford I've been agonizing over what mic should I get for my desk setup but turns out I may not have to! I already have a couple of the Rode mics, so I will try those out with your suggestion which should be good for now.
@@danasuechilds these mics are definitely a good value. Of course a more expensive mic will yield better quality but the way you use the mic will have a massive impact too!
Subscribed ! I'm looking to make a spare guestroom into a low profile Podcast and TH-cam production room, and your video is perfect ! Very clean and minimal. I also like that you gave us a low budget version (including the mic, which I already own!) and demonstrate how it sounds and looks. Thank you!
Sound is everything my friend. There have been countless videos I have stopped watching because the sound was crap.. Your room looks great. Neewer has some good stuff. Love your setup.
great video, I like that you put all this b-roll and you are showing everything so clearly what you are talking about, even an audio comparison and the smartphone setup.... not many people put that effort into this, you deserve many views.
I really love this setup and the simplicity in it.. I'm in the process of organizing my bedroom/ YT studio haha to have a space ready to roll and start filming anytime and this is very helpful.. thank you!
Very helpful. I've watched a couple of these "all in one" setups and many of them have more going on than I personally need or are larger than my closet office allows. This is much better for the space I have. Great vid, thanks.
Hey Joey, nice job showing the iPhone, $60 phone, cheap softbox, and mic at the end for comparison. You help give hope to other people with very little budget! I started there and finally worked up to a 1DX, 3 LEDs, 2 Mics, Arms, C Stands, etc. but that small kit anyone can use to start (phone, small led, mini mic).
Thanks Sean! Yeah I think when you watch these types of videos everyone likes to flaunt their gear, so showing newcomers that you don’t NEED all of it is important to me! That’s a solid setup you’ve got now though, awesome!
Thanks for sharing this. Don't bash yourself for all the obsession over different lighting setups and such. That testing and tinkering is your learning process, and it will pay off in the long run if you keep doing this stuff. 2 things, if you are open to feedback. 1) Your practical lights are flickering in a really distracting way. You can buy a few of those new Aputure B7Cs. I have one and love it. Or you could tinker with your shutter speed. There are tons of videos about eliminating flicker here on TH-cam. 2) If you have the space you might want to move your softbox slightly to your left. The light is nice and soft, yes, but its also super flat being almost directly in front of you. I hope this helps in some small way.
Hey Pat thanks for the awesome feedback. I have another video about my desk setup where I actually asked for help to fix the flickering so that’s been fixed going forward. But yes I agree I hate it too, I appreciate the input! 2nd the soft box is unfortunately as far to the left as possible given the lack of space between my desk and wall for the light stand 👎🏼 I know typically 45° from the subject is what you’re looking for, unfortunately with the space the way I have it setup now, that isn’t possible. But seriously thanks for this awesome comment! It really means a lot to me when nice folks like you take the time to try and be encouraging and helpful! Take care and enjoy your Friday !
The space where you put the Godox is exactly like mine. I'm thinking of getting an LED panel and diffuse it with an umbrella. Great idea with the overhead camera too!
Love this video - totally agree, it's NOT a direct relationship between $$$ and Video Quality 99% of the time... plus it's all about the content anyway
Looks great! A lot o inspiration behind this! Only one thing I noticed and I scrolled the comments quickly to make sure it wasn't already mentioned. You have some slight banding going on in your footage, I noticed it mainly in the highlights (against your desk). This may be due to the Shutter speed/angle used for your video and the frequency of your lights. Typically a 180 degree shutter (2x shutter speed) is recommended, but sometimes it picks up unwanted waves which Is what I think you're getting. Just some food for thought. Keep up the great work!
The iPhone for your overhead looks really nice! I was super surprised when I found out it was what you used. Great video! It’s a much more affordable version of the DSLR video shooter setup!
Nice one Joey! This popped up on my recommended. Great setup too XD. I have the same uploading schedule issue as you on my channel. I agree perfectionism is toxic. Great stuff!
Very nice set up! I’ve recently moved to and all-in-one desk mounted set up and it has made a ton of difference. Also, great use of such a small space!
nice vid, well done. you seem like a chill guy. nice job presenting things and even demonstrating different setups. I might want to do something similar in terms of the monitor stand!
Geez I had to pause the video after the mic test about the location. Definitely getting an arm for it and moving it closer. I've thought about it earlier but never thought the VideoMicro (using it already myself) was even capable for such sounds. Wow
Great job Joey! Love the wide angle tip and that overhead mount WORKS. Love it. I did a cooking vid recently and I put my phone on the second level of the cabinet overhead to do it. Subbed. Careful for hitting the desk though! lol
I've been exactly thinking about it ! Great video! Always positioning everything is so much friction and you end up giving up and leaving it for later...
That’s exactly it! I annoying had that problem this week when I was trying to film lol. Tried a new space In the kitchen and ended up scraping it for ol-reliable that you saw in this vid haha
💚💚💚💚 SO GLAD I RAN ACROSS YOUR VIDEO TURNING MY 3rd 🛁 INTO MY. 🎥 SETUP THANK SO MUCH 💚can’t wait to see if the over ARM works for beauty products ...THANKYOU💚
EXCELLENT video! I like that you gave the perspectives with the mic in different locations and compared budget vs not-so-budget items. And really great idea with the phone as overhead camera. The NEEWER monitor...how does it compare (spec-wise) the popular SmallHD that everyone else has in their expensive setups?
Thanks for the nice comment! As for the monitor, spec wise I couldn’t tell you off hand but for my needs it’s great. I think the smallhd gets way brighter and is higher resolution so for a professional setting it’s probably the way to go. I just need to make sure my camera didn’t miss focus or run out of memory card space lol so because of this it’s perfect!
I really appreciate that Ian! And yeah I’m super stoked about the overhead rig, sometimes simple is better. You should see other people’s rigs to get overhead shots... tripods balanced 6ft in the air, poles/pipes bolted to tables, it’s crazy. Thanks for the nice comment man it means a lot!
They’re actually sick dude, super powerful considering their size. And thanks man, it’s been a work in progress for a while but I’ve finally got it where I want it to be... for now
really enjoyed this video dude. i have been creating content for around 6 months. Each video is getting better however, the rhode Micro is mounted on top of my camera... going to take your advice for the next video.
This is a great video, thanks Joey -- love the overhead setup... what I've been trying so far for overhead shots is so shabby! Anyway, long way of saying subscribed!
If you want to use a Rode Mic or similar with your phone - you’re going to need a trs to trrs adapter - otherwise it’ll look cool without being useful. I didn’t realize this until after I acquired my Rode mic and the adapter for under $10.
You put acoustic panels everywhere but where you should have, directly in front of you, behind the mic to stop sound reflection off of that wall. That is going to resonate the most. Put some foam there and give it a test. Honestly for a mic with short range, there is often little to no need for acoustic panels anywhere but directly in front of you when speaking.
This is new info to me! To be honest the panels are more for general echo around the room vs sound quality with the shotgun mics. Even just taking a phone call in the office echoed the whole apartment before the panels.
@@Joey.Alford If you stop the initial sound bounce from behind the panel, there is little to no need for the rest. If you are silencing other sound in the room, the other walls definitely make sense. A lot of folks do podcasts and go overboard with it. The mic itself makes a huge difference too. I use a Shure SM7B as well as a Rode Podmic and both have such a short pick up range, little sound dampening in the room is required. My Rode board removes the remaining background noise.
Big difference eh? So I really like the godox specifically because of the soft box and overall brighter output. That said the led panel can be battery powered so I usually use it if I need to be mobile. Different tools for different jobs y’a know
@@Joey.Alford ayeee thanks man! I know alotta people were buying the aperture 120d mkII or even the 300x but that thing is crazy expensive lol. your set up is dope I appreciate you sharing! keep it up man!
Yeah dude super expensive. I think the people at the level where they can make a video on an expensive light like that and make the money back in Adsense immediately are smart. Unfortunately that’s not where I’m at so the godox is good enough for me. Also I don’t even know if I would notice a difference tbh hahaha
I know. Brutal eh? The way the power is setup in my building doesn’t cooperate with my Phillips hue lights. I’ve stopped using them in my videos going forward now...
@@Joey.Alford yeah ran into similar issue filming a music video, theres software that can fix it in post but sometimes you get interesting ghosting that may not be intended. Solid setup none the less my man
you're absolutely right. I've updated the links in the description under the "overhead setup". Thanks for letting me know, here are the goods! Clamp and ballhead: geni.us/z6P6se Overhead Extension Arm: geni.us/AYD1Q3 Ballhead: geni.us/38K7m4 Phone Holder: geni.us/Pdlwo
I'm struggling so much to set up the best studio. I only have a relevant video on my channel, and I want to make a new one, with better audio, and easier to watch. DIY softbox, using the same APUTURE that you got, and I need to see, which lens is better for this space with Canon M50, between: Canon 20mm 2.8 and Canon 18-135 3.5, which is not super sharp, but, it's wide enough for my needs.
Hi Joey, I'm going to use my iPhone to shoot videos. Do you still recommend this same microphone? If so, how do I connect it to my iPhone? Do you have an affiliate link for that:)?
Great setup! One question: What is the secondary arm you put on the monitor pole? I'm woefully ignorant when it comes to tech. This setup is the best I've found so far...but I can't seem to find that secondary arm (it's probably looking me dead in the face and I just don't know it). Thanks!
The arm I have came off of a laptop/monitor stand combo. It used to support a tray that could hold a MacBook. amzn.to/3a9lkkf But that one is expensive since you don’t need the tray part of it. Instead, linked in the description you’ll see “computer monitor arm” and that’s the one I would recommend for this setup!
@@Joey.Alford Ugh. I should've paid more attention and sought that info out in your description. Thank you for such an excellent response--and not taking me to task. You just gained a subscriber.
So I'm thinking.. why don't you scroll back up and hit that LIKE button?? :)
and I'll also subscribe to your channel coz I liked the video and, I'm actually learning more from creators like you, than people that shows up super expensive gears, that make me feel useless.

Smooth set up. After watching different videos on TH-cam about studio set ups; makes me realize that there's not right or wrong way to have a TH-cam studio set up.
I agree with this 100%. I’ve even changed my setup since this video, which lends to your point that perfect is subjective. Thanks for watching

I didn't know you can screw directly onto it. Your video had the tidbits of information I needed at my beginner setup. Thank you so much.
this video opened my eyes to the exact same thing!
That arm clamped to your monitor riser for an overhead shot is genius. I havnt seen anyone done it that way. Great video bro!
I wasn't expecting that large of a difference in the microphone placement especially with the efforts you went through with minimizing vocal bounce off the walls! Night and day difference

Love seeing these types of lean setups.
Yeah dude thank you! I appreciate you stopping by haha

Thanks and yeah I think it does the trick for sure!!
What is that adjustable arm you used for holding your microphone in place and how long is it? I'm looking for a longer arm and yours look good.
It’s a Smallrig friction arm. The one I’ve got is the longest they sell but you can try other companies to see if they sell longer friction arms!

You’ll get there! Canon 18-135 will be way more versatile in general. If you want wide the 10-18 will make any space look huge and it’s pretty cheap!
JHEEZ bruh that setup is clean
LOL calling me out at 0:49
Lmao I guess you’re the 1 that came for that hahaha
Hi Joey, I'm going to use my iPhone to shoot videos. Do you still recommend this same microphone? If so, how do I connect it to my iPhone? Do you have an affiliate link for that:)?
Great setup! One question: What is the secondary arm you put on the monitor pole? I'm woefully ignorant when it comes to tech. This setup is the best I've found so far...but I can't seem to find that secondary arm (it's probably looking me dead in the face and I just don't know it). Thanks!
The arm I have came off of a laptop/monitor stand combo. It used to support a tray that could hold a MacBook.

But that one is expensive since you don’t need the tray part of it. Instead, linked in the description you’ll see “computer monitor arm” and that’s the one I would recommend for this setup!
@@Joey.Alford Ugh. I should've paid more attention and sought that info out in your description. Thank you for such an excellent response--and not taking me to task. You just gained a subscriber.
No problem at all! Hope you enjoy the new setup
