There are steps of progress for an average blogger to create YouTube Video. Other direct creators like Singers or Brands need not to follow this steps :
- First create good quality HD video mainly around your blog’s topic.
- You might be shy to add voice over the video or appear in front of the camera, but gradually you must need to appear in front.
- We recommend to use voice initially and then gradually switch to full face to face video.
Hardware requirements :
Most gross XYZ blog has huge number of video views, but actually not very professional quality videos. You must set target for longer time, i.e. for years after years. It is just like evergreen content in case of blog. So, you must produce the highest quality of video today, otherwise after 2 years, as the technology will progress; if you use an average setup; they will become crap. Your invested time and effort is always same, so why not to invest a bit more taking it as a venture ?

We recommend :
- iMac or MacBook Pro 15″ with calibrated display. Please search within this website with Mac ICC profile if you have no idea about calibration. There are few articles on it, including guide for hardware calibration.
- Microphone – Minimum Apple EarPod’s that microphone. Better to use a good Microphone those are available on Apple Premium Reseller shops.
- Camera – Better to use dedicated camcorder. Some DSLR can serve the basic need. MacBook’s camera is of no help here.
- The room – Must have proper small studio setup with proper lighting, sound shielding, cooling etc.
- Obvious choice of Video Editor is iMovie.
Basically all can not have a good voice. However, it is your real voice and everyone must hear it in that condition. English has hundreds of accents and one country’s people can not understand the others’ one. Avoid locally added various phonetics (it is most important for some British counties and the Indians). Speak slowly, do not rush. All of us, who write these kind of YouTube Video Tips and Tricks on practical points actually has some connection with delivering speech. All of us use written scripts or prompts. It demands a quite good practice. Lip sync is difficult to master and unless needed, avoid it.
Where you have good hope to earn money, honestly a cheap Windows or Linux based setup abuses your time and effort. We are saying about post processing not usage as OS in front of the user. It can be anything.
