Hi Friends!
When it come to my video content - I'm generally pretty happy with the quality from my regular vlogs and music videos, BUT sometimes I use my Macbook Pro to actually film content. This happens either when I'm interviewing someone, or if I'm doing a screenshare recording - I use the camera that came in my laptop and the micrphone from a pair of headphones.
I feel the audio/video is always sub par on these items - and so I decided to upgrade both the mic and the camera! In this video, you see me test out 4 different scenarios.
- First clip is with my old setup - just using what comes on the Macbook Pro.
- Second clip is still using that camera - but hooking up Apogee Mic to my laptop.
- Third clip is using my Logitech webcam for both the video and mic. (it claims to have a built in mic)
- The final clip has me using the webcam AND the apogee mic in combination.
It was so fun to test out all these different variables to see what will yield the best results. I was pretty surprised at what a difference a few pieces of gear could make! I spent a total of $70 for this upgrade. Fifty on the webcam, and twenty on a cable to connect my mic to my laptop.
I hope some of you guys find this video helpful if you are debating upgrading some of your gear as well! I am personally way more excited about the prospect of doing more screenshare videos and/or interviews now that I have a better setup!
