This is just a very basic video for people who are unsure about how to start recording audio lectures. In this tutorial, I’ll go over some tips to get the most out of your phone, some of the reasons why I think you don’t need to spend extra money on new equipment, and how to perform some very basic edits on Audacity.
Audacity, the free editing software, can be found here: https://www.audacityteam.org/
History Fireside Videos are produced, recorded and researched by Dr Kristopher Lovell. The first and last part of the video was recorded using the Canon 4000D (https://amzn.to/3fNFb6s) and the audio was recorded separately using the Samson SAC02 (https://amzn.to/3211eTx). The footage from the phone was taken using the Huawei P20 Lite (https://amzn.to/2XE5Xre).
As I said, I would avoid buying new equipment if possible. If however you want a relatively affordable way to bolster your sound quality I would suggest either:
This cheap Lapel Microphone: (https://amzn.to/2XGdDJf)
This more expensive but high-quality microphone: (https://amzn.to/30Bi4ai)
