After 7 years of making videos in my home office/studio, it was time to totally rethink everything. It’s scary to make big changes, but over time our workflows can become outdated and clunky, and a fresh perspective can make a world of difference.

Welcome to 'wheel world' of studio space.

@adrianvanleeuwen Месяц назад

Totally impressive studio setup! If you want speakers that are high enough rich sound quality but don't break the bank, I use Logitech Z207 multimedia speakers for less than $100 from Amazon. Other creators have also recommended these. Or if you prefer your headphones go with that. I like your Savage colored paper for creating product images, so far I only use white, I may have to get blue and pink now after seeing this. The 53 inch rolls work with a C stand, however I like your 3 roll setup on the wall which is convenient. I like your workbench on wheels which can store lots of equipment.

@AndreSjoberg 2 месяца назад

Oh, one thing regarding turning on and off the power to those tubelights: I recently bought a set of four individual wifi-controllable power outlet sockets/smart sockets, and put them on my keylight and in a couple of other places, and since they are supported via google, alexa and siri I can now turn on and off single power outlets/single items , cutting the power to them - so even if I have a powerpad with multiple outlets in it, I can then put these single outlet controllers in there, and control the power for each single socket, by voice or action buttons on my phone. It’s also possible to group several sockets so they can be controlled by a single command as well as individually, just using the phone with either voice commands or ios shortcut buttons. That could maybe solve the problem of turning on and off the tube light in the corner ++ effectively cutting the power to the tubelight if that’s what you want. Yes, it’s an addition step for *just* turning on a single light (if it’s off at the socket), but at the same time, by grouping these sockets it’s possible to turn off everything you *want* to not have power all the time with just one button/one voice command, saving on battery health. I think they are just called «smart sockets» or «smart plugs» on Amazon, I only just got then so I’m still figuring out how to best utilize them -but since one of my next videos is gonna be a proper «youtube studio light setup figuring s**t out for me and the background/set» type video I’m deep diving into *really* figuring out how to utilize them properly :)

@tombuck 2 месяца назад

I really like the idea for grouping everything together! The tough part with the tube lights thought is that since they have batteries, once they're on they stay on until the battery dies, and they'd have to be left on for the remote to have an effect. There's zero reason for Nanlite to include a "bypass battery" option, but dang, I'd sure like it! 😁

@AndreSjoberg 2 месяца назад

@@tombuck … but … with the wifi smart plug you can then turn them off with the remote first (which I guess is standby mode?), and then turn off wifi plug to cut wired power to the lights so the battery doesn’t charge unless you want it to - that way it won’t constantly charge, which is what kills the battery over time … or am I missing some additional button on the tube lights?

Another very inspirational video Tom. While I’m just limited to a space at the end on our dining room that’s open to most of the house you did give me some ideas I can use. Moving my camera/teleprompter setup to a stand with wheels similar to what you have is a possible start. I’ve already looked into making that change after watching that video. I’m already planning on buying one of those Husky adjustable height work tables. I’ve seen those on several different channels. I even have my wife’s approval for the expenditure. It will be a great improvement over the desk I’m currently using. Unfortunately my space doesn’t have space a second desk/table setup like you’ve moved to but I could add a lot of different angles for my shots just by making those changes. Thanks again for your channel and all your efforts to help those of us who are trying to create videos.

LOVE that everything is on wheels and modular. For your camera/mic setup on your work desk, I've been using the Viozon 6-in-1 desk stand that clamps to my desk. It currently supports my A7IV with a teleprompter, a small mic that I boom overhead, an Aputure MC that I use for a little fill light and a lightweight15" monitor that I use as a multiview so I can see myself or my overhead when filming. It's nice because you can push everything out of the way when I'm just working (95% of desk time). The included mic boom arm is one of the trash $15 ones you can get, so I replaced it. Just gotta find one that fits in the same hole on the mount.

Interesting. I tried the Ulanzi "Gear Tree" last yeah but did not like it at all. Maybe it is worth exploring some alternatives?

@JohnScottB 2 месяца назад

@@tombuck Yeah I looked at the Gear Tree stuff too but it seemed a little overly complicated. Shoutout to Caleb Pike for making his video about the Viozon desk stand that I'm talking about. I also own their stand that is on wheels plus I use a smaller height one to mount my RCPII. So I guess I'm kinda all in on their system now since I can mix/match arms/accessories between them all. Take a look at his video though if you're interested. I think it's called "This $130 Video Desk Setup Rocks!"

Yessss the XLR Tx is amazing haha I am working on a video on the Shure version as we speak. It's actually kinda awesome just walking around with ANY mic you want.

What an amazing and inspirational collection of gear. Talking about optimizing one's workflow: You've mentioned the Stream Deck pedal a few times, but I haven't seen other Stream Decks (XL or +) on your desk(s), e.g. for controlling the Prompter or changing scenes in e-camm. Have you tried these? Since I discovered these devices a few years ago, my workflow has improved so much and I can't imagine my desk without these anymore.

@jonathanramsey 2 месяца назад

I did a thing. I sold my RCP2, last week. I’ve been using an Allen & Heath CQ12t. Is a pound heavier, and the XLR jacks input and output are all on top instead of on the back -making me have to unplug and re-plug when I scrub and set up. But! It has a smaller footprint, and I don’t have to have an outboard rig for occasional duo and group shows. Plus, it has auto gain control and intelligent feedback control. I have designed a 10-button MIDI foot controller for my lights and video, so I can change things during songs, in lieu of the RCP2 smart pads.

Getting space for that second table is going to be my next step. I can't do it in my current space but eventually the goal would be to get a bigger room so I can place the camera further away. Great setup!

Yeah, it was genuinely a "game changer" (as overused as that term can sometimes be).

Having that standalone, dedicated «filming»-desk/surface area is sooo key for a well functioning space - I do something similar in my filming space, although I have a big workbench on wheels with shelves and storage in the middle of the room for filming, it does do double duty for projects/crafting my RU-vid-gear as well, *and* for mounting Roller Skates, so it does trippel duty and sometimes those things crash - but I then *always* have my separate working desk available for putting my laptop on and do some computer work, which is also where I have my audio card and monitor speakers set up. I often end up sitting at my workbench with my laptop though, just because it feels nice and all my stuff is within easy reach - so not perfect, but *way* better than having just *one* desk :) And of course: everything on wheels is a must :D

The one thing about your space compared to almost ever other studio is how bright it is. As far as lack of Sound treatment have you thought about the rolling dual sound blanets that Caleb Pike designed? Just a thought.

@tombuck 2 месяца назад

I've thought about the sound blankets because they would help A LOT, but I honestly just don't want to have them take up space. I've noticed more reverb since moving things around, so I think I'll definitely need to tweak the sound treatment a bit more.

I went with three of the crank desks from Husky as well. They have been a game changer. I'd like to upgrade to the tool carts, but my studio is on the second floor and I would have a problem getting them up the stairs because they are usually pre-assembled.

That lowboy stand is so frustrating - it doesn't go that much lower than other rollers like the Avenger 5017, but then even as a four-section stand it doesn't go very high.
