My Workspace and How I Make My Videos



In my video this week, I do a quick behind-the-scenes tour of my work space, my YouTube video recording setup, and how I currently edit my videos. I currently record all my videos using an iPhone 15 Pro, but with the phone in a SmallRig cage with a bunch of stuff attached to it. I have my equipment list below if you want to check out any of the items I use. Note that these are all Amazon Affiliate links. You might find better prices at places like B&H Photo on some of these.


Equipment List:

►SmallRig Phone Cage: https://amzn.to/49lQGh4

►My Manfrotto tripod (overkill for just a phone): https://amzn.to/3STtCkk

►Current version of my Shure microphone: https://amzn.to/49gmVyI


These were the accessories I used to try to get everything attached to the cage above. I ended up using the phone mount for the SSD and USB hub and the SSD mount for the battery:

►2pack phone mount: https://amzn.to/48cHlHa

►SSD mount bracket: https://amzn.to/3HXKC2F

►Mount screws (for attaching mounts to cage): https://amzn.to/499u4kd

►Short USB C cable (I used 3): https://amzn.to/3HVHyEc

►Anker Battery (any will do): https://amzn.to/49vKVgU

►Reusable Cable Ties (for organization): https://amzn.to/489vslr

►Mini plate (probably not needed but another way to mount things): https://amzn.to/4bvcecZ


A couple of options if you need more storage or for video transfers (any small one will do):

►Samsung T7 SSD: https://amzn.to/49ajmK7

►SanDisk SSD: https://amzn.to/3ODwKOQ


►My Newer video lights (this version has no stand): https://amzn.to/3STmzbr
