-: In this box here are the lights 2 2
and in this box here is everything else. 3 3
Video, audio equipment, and much much more. 4 4
We'll talk about the lights later on 5 5
and this part here in the course. 6 6
Whenever I do that, I have to create what's called 7 7
a lower third in the corner there. 8 8
so I so that's uh it can tell you where to go 9 9
in the course, okay, 10 10
so this here if you're curious this is 11 11
a Pelican Air suitcase that you can get. 12 12
It's relatively light, and it's great, it's great, okay, 13 13
so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna open it up 14 14
and show you everything. 15 15
And I mean everything, yeah. 16 16
Okay, so, and I'm gonna tilt it a bit too 17 17
so that you can see what I can see. 18 18
Gently, Chris, alright good. 19 19
Alright, great. 20 20
Okay, so what I'm gonna do is the computer stuff 21 21
I'll show you later when I show you how to do 22 22
a live broadcast using YouTube 23 23
and then I'm gonna show you the other equipment as well, 24 24
this here is the case for the gimbal 25 25
that's now holding my iPhone, okay, 26 26
it's called an osmo two, it's amazing, except, 27 27
it messes up the sound sometimes I find 28 28
which is why I wear this sound piece here okay 29 29
and I'll show you how to use this gimbal 30 30
later on in the course at this point here 31 31
put this aside for now, now I want talk about the audio 32 32
that I'm wearing right now, so camera audio is not 33 33
that great usually, usually you have to get a 34 34
separate device, even if you're using an iPhone 35 35
and so what I use here is what's called a 36 36
Zoom H1n Recorder, and that's what's recording me right now 37 37
and so here's what it sounds like with me talking 38 38
to this thing here this zoom here 39 39
and here's what it sounds like with me talking in the iPhone 40 40
okay now you know why I like to use other microphones 41 41
and I always use two microphones just in case. 42 42
And basically all this is right here is a lavalier 43 43
okay and that's just a little microphone here 44 44
that I put under my shirt and then I pin it right here 45 45
so you can kind of see where I have it 46 46
and I usually wear a black shirt because this thing is black 47 47
okay and I recommend buying this product, 48 48
and I don't get compensated for anything okay 49 49
but this product is amazing it's called H1n recorder 50 50
and the H1n zoom recorder, and you buy a lavalier, 51 51
which is just this wireless mic and you plug it in the side 52 52
and that's it, that's all you have to do it's amazing 53 53
it's incredible it's incredible and 54 54
one last little tip if you do this on the top 55 55
there's a dial called a gain which make's your voice louder 56 56
or quieter, just turn it to the middle, to number five 57 57
and then you can set it and forget it, 58 58
and I hit record, and then right here on the side 59 59
there is a whole button so if I push these buttons 60 60
it doesn't matter at all, it's still gonna keep recording, 61 61
you can even take this out and just record with this 62 62
which is great, it's awesome but I prefer using a lavalier 63 63
now the memory card that it uses 64 64
is one of those really small SD cards 65 65
and when ever you buy those small SD cards 66 66
like this one here a lot of the times 67 67
it ships with a bigger holder, so you can put it 68 68
attach it to your computer or dongle device 69 69
if you have one which is what I do. 70 70
Okay I'm gonna put this away now 71 71
and I recommend getting this product only 72 72
if your into External recording 73 73
and I'll show you shocked on microphone as well soon 74 74
and a very high end microphone that a guy named 75 75
Seth Rogen uses, I'm gonna get my towel here 76 76
it's a little bit hot. And whenever somebody is 77 77
being recorded in a TV studio, they put makeup on you 78 78
because there's a lot of lights, and there's not 79 79
that many lights here right now just the lights 80 80
from the room but when I setup my lights 81 81
it's gonna get a little bit hotter. 82 82
And So what I'm gonna do is 83 83
I'm actually gonna show you how I put on makeup, 84 84
my little sister Elizabeth just teased me 85 85
about that here in Toronto, but I'm gonna show you 86 86
how to do it and if you want you can fast forward 87 87
to this point here to do it, and when 88 88
I've been interviewed on television, 89 89
on NBC and, that was me showing of I was on NBC, 90 90
the worst Interview ever, but I was Interviewed 91 91
for crypto currency stuff, and they put makeup on you 92 92
because there's bright lights everywhere and so 93 93
every single person in every movie, male or female 94 94
doesn't matter, and on television they have makeup on. 95 95
And what you have to do is you have to get it to 96 96
match your skin color, I'll show you again 97 97
at this point here in the course. 98 98
Okay, it's hot. All right, now that we've talked about 99 99
audio here, what I want to do is, I wanna show you 100 100
the cameras that we're going to use. 101 101
I have a webcast tomorrow. I do a weekly webcast, 102 102
I'm on week number 50 now, it's a YouTube live webcast. 103 103
I usually answer a ton of questions for my students, 104 104
it's fun, it's free I love it 105 105
but I'm gonna show you how I set it up 106 106
and you can use any type of camera you want too so 107 107
this here is kind of like a DSLR camera 108 108
but it's smaller, and so they call it a mirrorless camera 109 109
and the reason they call it that a mirror less camera 110 110
is because, if I take the lens off, 111 111
there's no mirror underneath okay 112 112
that's all you need to know about that but 113 113
mirror less cameras and DSLR's operate 114 114
the same way instruction why's okay 115 115
so I've got what's called a Cannon M50 right here 116 116
I think this is the absolute best vlogging camera 117 117
on the market. It's incredible. And the reason why 118 118
I love it so much is because the screen is well 119 119
okay there's a lot of other great cameras out there 120 120
you can use to vlog or take YouTube videos 121 121
but it's moronic because the screens don't move to the side 122 122
this one is awesome. And so with this one here 123 123
all you do is, you litrally turn it on, 124 124
you go onto auto mode and then you let it record yourself 125 125
and it will zoom in or focus in on your face 126 126
automatically in auto mode. I use manual mode a lot too 127 127
it's how I time the scope of this course. 128 128
If you want to know how to use manual mode 129 129
let me know and I'll be happy to teach you 130 130
everything about canvas, it's fun. 131 131
And I have another course called the 132 132
videography master course which teaches all that stuff 133 133
for masterclass okay so when you turn it on 134 134
it's really really easy to use. What you do is 135 135
you go here to the camera, right the camera on the dial, 136 136
picture of a camera and then you click here to select 137 137
your mode and the mode I'll select is automatic 138 138
okay it's that simple and then you just 139 139
push the record button here which is red, and you're done. 140 140
It's that simple, and you can vlog and 141 141
work around with it as well and I'm gonna hook this up to 142 142
a bit of a higher end, it's having 143 143
issues focusing on to that, yeah a bit of a higher end 144 144
camera in a little while, in a little while okay 145 145
or a higher end gimbal I should say called a Ronin-S 146 146
okay, we'll come back to this soon okay 147 147
but it's really really simple to use 148 148
so it's the Canon-M50 I love it. And you can even hook up 149 149
bigger lenses on to it as well, actually 150 150
I'll show you right now. Okay. 151 151
so you can get this device here, 152 152
and every product I talk about I'll give you a 153 153
I'll write you a link to it. So this here will allow you to 154 154
use other lenses on this smaller mirror less camera. 155 155
Right and the brilliance to these mirror less cameras 156 156
is they're just like DSLR's but a lot smaller 157 157
because they don't need that mirror. Okay it's amazing, 158 158
and DSLR's are a dying breed. And so with this Canon-M50, 159 159
and I use Canon, Ikon, Sony I use everything, 160 160
but I have a bunch of Canon lenses and what you can do 161 161
is, I can use my Canon lenses for my bigger cameras 162 162
on this here and all you do is you take this off. 163 163
Okay. And I'll show you how to clean a camera 164 164
like this from scratch at this point here in the course. 165 165
Okay and you put this on here, okay you got to lineup the 166 166
dots, you twist okay it's on there okay, and then 167 167
what you can do is you can use other lenses if you want to. 168 168
And so this is my favorite lens on the planet, 169 169
it's called a Canon-77 millimeter 24 to 105 millimeter lens, 170 170
that means you can zoom in and out to about that amount. 171 171
Okay, and all you do is you line up the red dots here 172 172
and twist, and our done. 173 173
And that's it and so when I turn this on 174 174
it works perfectly using that lens. 175 175
See zoom in, zoom out. It's incredible, okay great 176 176
so what I'm gonna do now is, I'm gonna put this on here, 177 177
and I'm gonna put this camera aside for a little while, 178 178
and we'll come back to it soon, 179 179
little bit messy here but what I wanna do now is I wanna put 180 180
this lens back on, and then I'm gonna show you 181 181
how to hook up what's called a shotgun mike 182 182
and you could take your lavalier if you want to, 183 183
this thing I'm wearing right here 184 184
and you can hook it up to the side of pretty well any camera 185 185
and use that as your microphone it's pretty easy to do. 186 186
So let me take this lens off okay. 187 187
And what I'll do is I'm just gonna put this aside over here 188 188
I've got the adapter on that's fine okay 189 189
and then what I'll do is I'll put this back on here, 190 190
line up the dots, great, and this lens 191 191
I recommend getting it if you get this Canon-M50 192 192
and the name of this lens is the Canon zoom 193 193
11 to 22 millimeter meaning It can do 194 194
a really great shot of you holding it 195 195
so again remember that 11 to 22 millimeter lens 196 196
okay, now let's put on this microphone here and 197 197
this here is a RODE microphone so it's a company 198 198
a great Australian company named RODE R-O-D-E 199 199
which makes great audio equipment 200 200
and what's on this thing is what's called a dead cat 201 201
which is kind of a dumb name but that's what they call it 202 202
and this dead cat here, what it does is 203 203
if you're outside recording which I do a lot 204 204
it'll stop the wind from interfering with the audio. 205 205
And so when I filmed the trailer for this course 206 206
when I was in Barcelona, I had my son Matthew 207 207
film me filming with a GoPro as you can see from this little 208 208
insert video here, I used this to record my self 209 209
as well as a Ronin-S gimbal which I'll show you in a second 210 210
and this camera here I used which is great, okay. 211 211
So I'm gonna put this aside here 212 212
and those dead cats also come for these things as well, 213 213
so you'll notice in a lot of the side notes 214 214
at the end of each lecture in the second half of the course 215 215
I'm wearing this lavalier with that zoom H1N, 216 216
and I've got a little dead cat on the top of it there, 217 217
okay so this is called a RODE shotgun microphone 218 218
and they have several different models 219 219
and I think they all sound great. 220 220
And all you do is you put in a battery here 221 221
and you turn it on, that's it that's all you got to do. 222 222
And you plug it into the side of your camera 223 223
and you can mount it as well. 224 224
All right, and a lot of cameras they allow you to flip 225 225
the screen up which is moronic because 226 226
you can't put this on that's why I love this camera so much. 227 227
Okay so I will turn it on, and then in terms of this 228 228
right it's like a headphone jack, all you do is, 229 229
on the side of your camera, and they're all similar, 230 230
you find the MIC microphone and you plug it in 231 231
and that is it. That's it, okay and then it'll record me 232 232
with the sound which is awesome. 233 233
Now let's put in the memory cards up, 234 234
and I have this great memory card reader, 235 235
I'll provide you with the link as well, 236 236
that allows you to use USBC as well as USB 237 237
when you plug it directly into your computer macro pc 238 238
and on the side you can put micro SD 239 239
meaning the tiny cards as well as the bigger cards 240 240
on this side and please don't be cheap 241 241
when it comes to memory cards. Buy SanDisk if you can, 242 242
I think they're the best, they're amazing. 243 243
Okay, so what we'll do now is I'm actually going to get 244 244
one of these cards here, and a lot of times 245 245
when you buy these micro things, micro memory cards 246 246
you get a little adapter as well that comes with it. 247 247
so I'm gonna put this in here, 248 248
and with my drone which I'll show you in this lecture here, 249 249
it takes the micro cards. So I'll turn this off, 250 250
I'll turn it upside down and I'll just pop this in 251 251
it's that simple, and then what I'm gonna do 252 252
actually is I'm not gonna record with that iPhone anymore, 253 253
I'm gonna switch it over to this guy here 254 254
with a gimbal attached to it, 255 255
actually no I'll put it on a tripod first. 256 256
And the reason why is because every five minutes 257 257
that osmo tube powers off if you're not using the app 258 258
and I wanna record natively in 4K at 24 frames per second 259 259
with my iPhone here what that means is, 260 260
it takes 24 pictures every second, 261 261
okay and Hollywood movies, that's how they work 262 262
they're always, almost always 24 frames per second. 263 263
If you watch sports and they show you instant replays 264 264
a lot of the times they're at a 120 pictures per second. 265 265
So when they slow it down you can actually see the detail, 266 266
but you don't record at that level all the time though 267 267
because if you record at high frames per second, 268 268
you get dizzy it's kind of like 269 269
the opening scene from Saving Private Ryan 270 270
and the movie The Hobbit a lot of people 271 271
were upset at Peter Jackson the Director because 272 272
he filmed it at 48 frames per second, 273 273
and people say hey it looks like a video game. 274 274
So try to stay at 24 frames per second, 275 275
or 25 if you don't have 24, or use 30 on your camera okay. 276 276
And if you care about something called the F stop, 277 277
meaning getting that great portrait mode, 278 278
what you do is if you can, put your lens 279 279
or your camera on the lowest F stop number, okay. 280 280
Like go down to four if you can, 281 281
if you want to have the background out of focus 282 282
and me in focus, if you want okay. 283 283
And the last thing I'll tell you 284 284
about cameras on manual mode is, 285 285
if you want to adjust the lighting, 286 286
there's something called the ISO. 287 287
And if you don't have enough light you crank up the ISO, 288 288
to a high number, like 800. 289 289
And the best way to remember this is think 290 290
when there's not much light my eyes so open, 291 291
okay so ISO high means you let in more light. 292 292
Okay so again there's three levers to look at with cameras, 293 293
in manual mode, the first one is frames per second, 294 294
okay so try to do 24 or 25 or 30 295 295
if your camera doesn't let you do 24 296 296
and if you care about what's called the shutter speed 297 297
you just make it twice the frame rate 298 298
so if you're shooting at 25 frames per second 299 299
then use a shutter speed of 50 okay 2X 300 300
the next lever which we talked about briefly is 301 301
the aperture meaning the F stop 302 302
and there's a lot of mathematics behind it 303 303
if you care I can go into detail in that 304 304
but the bottom line is, if you make the F stop number low 305 305
then what you can do is you can get 306 306
stuff in the background not in focus, but my face in focus. 307 307
And for those of you who use mobile phones, 308 308
you'll notice that portrait mode has the same effect 309 309
that just means the F-stop number is low. 310 310
And the last thing to look at, the third lever 311 311
is ISO that's all you got to know, okay 312 312
all right, great so I put in the memory card on this and 313 313
it's really strange but there is an EU law, 314 314
European Union law a tax law, 315 315
that you can't record with these things 316 316
for more than 29 minutes, they'll shut down. 317 317
And the reason is if you did 30 minutes or more 318 318
than the tax rate would be way higher 319 319
when you buy these things, so it's a pain in the neck 320 320
when you're recording these things, you know 321 321
a lot of times after 29 minutes you gotta go 322 322
turn it on again which sucks, 323 323
and it's one of the limitations of these 324 324
mirror less and DSLR cameras, and that's why I use a 325 325
cinema camera here which I'll show you 326 326
how to setup in a second. I know it's a little crazy that 327 327
it's all in the side here but I just wanted to show you 328 328
and keep it real how I do this stuff. 329 329
Okay great now what I'm gonna do is 330 330
I'm actually just going to hit record on this 331 331
and let it automatically focus on my face 332 332
and then I'm gonna replace that iPhone 333 333
with this product here, and if you have more advanced about 334 334
how to use this thing or how to use the audio on this 335 335
or how to use your Android device or iPhone 336 336
to take great videos for YouTube purposes 337 337
please let me know, okay I'm gonna swap this out now 338 338
for this camera.
