Hi!
Some time ago, I started my journey with an YouTube channel, it's something really great, that I truly enjoy!
My main struggle right now is the gear, that I'm using at the moment - it's simply built in camera and microphone in my laptop. I would love to change that, but my budget is limited, so these are my options:
1. Buy a phone that would be my camera and microphone for some time - I just don't want to waste any time NOT creating videos and improving my skillset as videomaker. The phone I was thinking about is Google Pixel 4 5G (about 400$ dollars, which is my investing budget per month).
2. Buy a microphone for now (Blue Yeti I think, about 100-150$), and save the rest of investment fund for next month and then buy some high quality camera. I am just not sure, if buying high quality gear (I mean something mobile, that I can use for years) is possible at that cost (about <500$).
There are also a lot of investments when it comes to stock subscriptions - Premiere Pro, Audible and one of image stocks).
Is there anyone experienced enough with these things to help me out?
What kind of strategy would you guys use?
Thank you a lot for your kind answers!
