Frequently Asked Questions
Q – How much should I expect to spend on a studio?
A – In the course, I will walk through a good, better, best setup with each element as well as give practical tips for how to use or repurpose items you already have in your home. I spent $350 on mine initially to buy paint, sound-dampening foam, lights, a tripod, and some IKEA furniture. The most expensive elements are the camera and the mic but most people can do well with a simple $50 webcam and a $100 mic. Those two items can easily stretch into the thousands if you want to go there and I’ll make recommendations for higher level gear too. Even if you don’t buy a new camera and mic, just changing the lighting, fixing simple acoustic problems, and setting up a good backdrop will look one hundred times better for most people.
I’ll specifically how to get the most out of a budget of $350, $750, and $2,500.
I also give recommendations for those who want to build something more elaborate ($10k+) and will point you in the right direction for additional training.
