I start by writing a script for my video. Creating Videos Phase 1: Preparation The Script If I were to do this over again, I would definitely choose one of the options Matt lists in his post instead of the Yeti.
Matt recommends NOT buying a Blue Yeti mic and his reasoning is very compelling. It does pick up a lot of noise around my house though, so I now record videos at night when my house is quiet in order to get around that issue.Ī few weeks after I purchased this mic, Matt Stauffer wrote an awesome blog post with recommendations on audio setup for recording videos (plus information on webcams and lighting). Overall, this mic has worked fine for my purposes and I haven’t really noticed too many problems. I ended up buying a Blue Yeti mic and a pop filter to record with. If you are planning on continuing to make videos, it might be worth it for you to purchase a standalone microphone. If you are just getting started this is a totally viable option. Microphoneįor my first few videos I used the built in microphone on my laptop to record the audio for my videos. Depending on the type of video you are making, the auto-generated image might be great and you will be able to skip creating your own thumbnails. Note: YouTube will try to generate a thumbnail from a section of your video automatically. If you already have another image generation tool you like, definitely stick with that. I already had a license for Sketch so that is why I chose this software. Sketch is a design platform that makes it straightforward to create design assets. I upload my videos to YouTube so I need to have a thumbnail for each video. At this point, I do very basic editing and iMovie has all the features I need. On Mojave, you can start the recording with Command-Shift-5.
Starting with macOs Mojave, macOs added built in screen recording support. I use the built in Screen Recorder on macOS to record all of my videos. I use a Mac to record and edit my videos so most of the information in the post is specific to using a Mac. I wanted to share my process in case anyone else is interested in making video tutorials and wants some tips on how to get started. We are using Alpas for our cloud backend (Rampart) at MetaGeek.Īfter making quite a few videos, I have figured out a pretty fast process for making screencast-style video tutorials.
Over the past few months I have been creating video tutorials for a new Kotlin web framework called Alpas.
