One of the more popular items for Youtubers is the ring light that has a cell phone holder. A lot of streamers are streaming from their phone, but let’s face it, most cell phone lights don’t produce enough light to be effective. Adding a ring light to your cell phone will not only make your videos and streams easier to see but it will increase your overall production value. The light has a bunch of cool features that will make any Youtubers videos clearer and easier to shoot.
The light features three handy lighting modes, Warm, Cool, and Day Light. Each mode has 11 brightness levels for a total of 33 options. The gift also includes a tripod that attaches to almost any smartphone. You can adjust the tripod from 17..5 to 51 inches. The setup is USB compatible so uploading and saving your videos is a snap.

A lot of Youtube channels are run directly through a laptop or computer. This makes it really easy to travel to different locations with the channel and keep it from getting stale with the same shots over and over again. If you are trying to explore your horizons with some new locales and increase viewers and subscribers than investing in a new laptop is actually a really smart decision. While there are folks that refuse to use anything Apple-related the sales volume and trustworthiness of the Macbook series can attest to the fact that it is one of the most complete laptops ever made.

Unless you have a secluded studio with minimal outside noise pollution there is always a need to control the sounds that might make it to your microphones. Whether you are recording and editing later or doing live streams there is a need to make sure the only thing your viewers and subscribers are hearing is what you want them to hear. Soundproofing your studio is a great way to keep the bad noises out and the good sounds in. Luckily, soundproofing walls is a fairly inexpensive task and isn’t too time-consuming.

Getting your Youtube channel off the ground can be tough work if you don’t know where to start. While most people use the cameras that are built into their laptops or computers, or even the camera that is in their smartphones it usually takes some trial and error before they realize that they need a different camera altogether. Adding a webcam to your setup can really make the difference. This 1080p webcam from Vitade is a high resolution and easy to set up a camera that will help create a clearer-looking shot.

For the Youtuber that uses their laptop or computer for everything, there is a lighting kit that works in sync with those kinds of setups. While ring lights are made specifically for smartphones there is a lighting setup that works in concert with computers. Just like a clip-on webcam this lighting rig clips onto the top of your laptop or computer monitor and provides bright light to illuminate whatever you are filming.
Have total control over the brightness of the light from 1-100% brightness. Adjust the color temperature by adjusting from a warm (orange) light to a cool (white) light to get your perfect skin tones and match your environment. The built-in frosted lens and additional white diffuser give you the flexibility to soften your light and get that professional glow. This is a cost-effective way to get professional-style lighting and increase viewers and subscribers. The better the channel looks the more people will share and post your vids.

Ambiance can mean everything when it comes to the look of a Youtube video. Shooting a video with a dope sign like this in the background can help with viewers and subscribers.

For the Youtubers that don’t like the look of a big bulky microphone or have the money to invest in a boom microphone and operator for the mic, there is a discreet and incredibly useful way to capture the sound of their videos without using a bigger mic. Lapel microphones are used all over the world in interviews, concerts, competitions, and streaming videos. The mics clip onto collars or clothing and capture sounds at a close range.

What you don’t see in interviews, television productions, movies or Youtube videos is the lighting setup, and that is the way it is supposed to be. If the camera panned to a behind the scenes view you would see lighting rigs that project light onto whatever the camera is filming. Lighting rigs and setups are easy to install and they really increase the production value of any setting. Dimly lit Youtube channels get fewer views and subscribers and if you check out the most viewed streams and videos you can clearly see everything that is going on. That is due to higher quality lighting.
This lighting setup is perfect for smaller studios and Youtube channels. It uses 2 85 watt bulbs that you can purchase at any hardware or grocery store. The light bulbs are reflected by the softboxes so that the light brightens the subject or subjects without blinding them. Both boxes stand on a tripod that can be swiveled and moved to adjust to the subject(s) being filmed. The kit comes with a carrying case and can be easily assembled and moved.

Backdrops are a great investment for the Youtuber. It creates a scene that you can really build the channel around. Whether you want to create a warm or more professional ambiance you can do so with a simple backdrop. This backdrop is white brick with a grey wooden floor and really gives an industrial feel while also being very warm.
This 5×7 foot backdrop can hang from any ceiling and instantly boost the overall mood of the channel and production. If you are tired of having blank walls or a blank space to record or stream your videos then a simple backdrop like this can really make the difference. If you don’t have the money to invest in a space that you can design and decorate the way you want then investing in an inexpensive backdrop should fill the void.
