How to start a youtube channel. Cameras, Software and more.

Hello everyone! 

I have a different kind of blog post for you today. 

I am going to be talking about Youtube. I get a lot of questions from people that want to start a youtube channel. What camera do I use? What software do I use? 

I first want to say that I do not have a million subscribers or even 20K subscribers so I was hesitant to even make these videos. But I decided I would share my experience and what I do and use and I hope someone finds it helpful 

You can watch my first video here 

I talk about the best advice I can give someone that wants to start making videos, 

My second video talks about what I use to create my videos.

Really you dont need much. Just something to record your videos and some sort of editing software. 

I use Windows movie maker which is free. 

Here is a list of equipment I use and other equipment that might be helpful  

Camera - Canon Vixia HF R40

Manfrotto Tripod - Find it here

The tripod "arm" that I showed in my video came from this.
