Helpful tips for starting a YouTube channel on a budget. How I set up my vlogging studio and gear

How to create a professional looking vlogging studio on a budget. Plus some helpful tips and tricks to help you make better videos.

Join me on a tour of the TrailSage studio. You might be surprised at how inexpensive and simple my setup is. If you're a new content creator, we'll go over the basics, and talk about some things you can do to make your videos look and sound better.

For me, the goal was to create a professional looking studio using a mix of household items, and prosumer levels of gear, for under $200. To add a layer of complication, this space also has to function as my office when not shooting video. Of course this price does NOT include the camera, and that’s because this setup can work using any camera, including the one on your phone.

In this video we'll go over the lighting and audio setup I use to create my YouTube content. In addition to giving you a tour of my space, we will touch on my background design, and we'll also go over some helpful tips along the way.
