Come take a tour of my small room YouTube Studio! As a computer guy who loves tech, I “may” have gone a little overboard for a new channel just starting out.
In this video, I walk you through my studio, which is actually my guest bedroom converted to a home office studio. I’ve had quite a few viewers and YouTuber friends ask what gear I’m using and how I get certain shots. So let’s take a look at Camera Gear, Lighting, Audio Processing, Acoustic Treatment, and more!
