Building a Home Video Studio – Phase 2

http://youtu.be/c85BKtFr80g
This installment of my Home Studio series shows that things don’t always go as planned. The garage space turned out to have a couple of sound-related issues, so I had to scrap that plan, and start in a different room. Sometimes you don’t know what problems will crop up until you start trying to work in a space.

In the new space, I show you what gear I’ve set up and why I’m using certain things. You can see this studio in action in every episode of Geeks and Gear.

Here’s all the gear I used with links to where you can get it:
