Hardware equipment
1. Camera or mobile phone
To make short videos from the media, you need a device that can shoot videos first. If the budget is not too much, a mobile phone will do. Remember to make the picture quality clearer.
If you want clearer picture quality, you can buy a micro-single or a SLR. According to different budgets, you can choose equipment with different prices. Under normal circumstances, about 8000 yuan can meet our needs. If you have higher requirements, you can choose higher-priced equipment.
2. Audio equipment
Audio equipment is mainly microphone, which can be roughly divided into three categories: shooting equipment for recording audio, bees and tape recorders. If our video camera has the function of recording audio, we don't need to buy a microphone. Beginners are advised to use Bee for recording, but Bee needs to install batteries. When recording for a long time, you need to prepare a spare battery to avoid power failure.
By the end of the work, you can use more advanced recording equipment. When using H6 and H4 recorders, you must set the parameters, and you will reap what you sow. The effect of using a tape recorder must be much better than the other two.
3. Lighting equipment
In order to ensure the brightness of the picture, we usually use lights to supplement it when shooting videos. If the budget is low, we can use a reflector, but the disadvantage is that it is inconvenient to carry. If possible, it is recommended to use camera lights and assemble them directly on the camera. It's convenient to go where there is light.
tripod
After we have all the equipment, we still need a tripod. The tripod not only plays a fixed role, but also has an anti-shake function, which can make the picture more stable. A good tripod can not only make the picture more stable, but also move the camera up and down on it.
There are three kinds of tripods, namely multifunctional tripod for desktop, telescopic tripod for outdoor use and handheld tripod for mobile shooting. Generally, with these three kinds, we can meet all our shooting needs.
Software equipment
1. video editing software
The mobile phone can be operated by love editing, and the computer recommends pr. Editing video, adding subtitles, basic special effects and other functions can be completed, downloading and installing are also very easy, and novices can get started quickly.
2. Subtitle software
Although pr can also add subtitles, it is not a professional subtitle software after all, so when there are many subtitles, more professional software is needed to operate. Arctime and Subtitle Pass are recommended, because they can automatically recognize the voice in the video and directly convert it into subtitles, which is very convenient.
3. Design software
If you want to make a good video, it is also necessary to design software, because we need a good title and cover picture to attract users to click. Ps and maker stickers are recommended here. If you don't know how to operate ps, you can directly use Maker Post to operate online.
The above is the equipment needed to make short videos. Although there are many tools recommended online, the most important thing is that you can use them easily.
The most important thing to make short videos is to keep updating. Even if you can't update more than one video a day, you should maintain a certain update frequency, which is also good for your account.
