Kit for 'youtubers' and 'tiktokers': cameras, microphones, spotlights and other accessories with which to destroy

YouTube, Twitch and Tik Tok have become the main social networks that you must be on if you want to be someone on the internet. And with them, the video has become the great showcase in which to show who we are and our qualities. Having a channel on these platforms can get you work and publicity. It is also a means to open up to the world, create a community or fulfill a dream. And, why not, also to have a good time and go viral.

A hobby that, during confinement, has saved many from boredom. If you are thinking of taking the plunge and opening a channel, the first thing you should do is choose the subject of the content. The first thing is to know if you want to dedicate your channel to the world of video games, if you prefer it to be a video blog or a succession of unboxings... Perhaps you want it as a showcase for your travels, for covers or dances, to make jokes or overcome challenges. ..

The second step is to equip yourself with good materials to be able to get subscribers. For this, it is important to equip yourself with good materials, such as cameras, microphones, spotlights and tripods, although these will depend on the content that we publish.

CAMERA

It's essential to make a video, but we don't have to spend a lot of money to start or continue our channel. Although many times, the rear camera of the mobile is enough, it is best to choose specific models that allow us to record images with a good resolution.

Webcam for gamers and teachers

If what you want is to become a gamer, the best way is to record yourself with cameras like this one, with which you can incorporate your image into games and chats with what that you would only have to record the screen.
