How to Get a Room Ready for Video

Notes for August 4, 2017.

Video Friday started with a return visit to Ajay Pangarkar’s basement conversion idea from a few weeks back. Sam Rogers and Matt Pierce join Brent in the windows and they hit all the areas of concern including lighting, sound, room size, camera placement, and backdrops. Be sure to scroll up through the chat, there were a lot of good ideas in there too!

1. Addressing lighting issues
2. Addressing room size and camera placement
3. Funneling and bending light
4. The dos and don’ts of props
