Awesome video man, I've been playing around with my setup a lot recently - especially since integrating the face cam. So this helps a lot. Great video!

[@user-ji3is7xg7y]

This is so helpful! Thank you so much for this!!! My son loves opening pokemon cards and wanted to record it for his memories, so thank you again!

[@joeymc3612]

Great video. Really appreciate all of the info you provided! Sort of have a mishmash of all of the stuff, and was really wondering what avenues I'd take with it.

[@DarkHorseTCG]

This was great in preparation for my online regionals next month--thank you!!

[@Alie2]

solid advice bro. been working on getting my recording set up so this was really helpful!

[@TheSableyes]

Great watch man! I came past to see which mic you were using, you're always crisp and clear, and ended up just chilling watching the whole thing! Nice work man, keep it up :)

[@gyrosean]

Thanks so much! Love the work yall do as well!

[@gradeabrandon186]

Sick info vid 💯 Keep pumping these out

[@LaurenPaigeSQL]

This was so helpful! Just my Battle Styles booster box for its release day and I've never recorded before - so stoked! 😁

[@grantowen6992]

I dont mean to be so off topic but does anybody know of a way to log back into an Instagram account? I was stupid lost the login password. I would appreciate any tips you can give me.

[@bridgerhouston4131]

@Grant Owen instablaster =)

[@grantowen6992]

@Bridger Houston i really appreciate your reply. I got to the site thru google and Im waiting for the hacking stuff atm. Looks like it's gonna take quite some time so I will reply here later when my account password hopefully is recovered.

[@grantowen6992]

@Bridger Houston it did the trick and I finally got access to my account again. Im so happy:D Thanks so much, you really help me out :D

[@bridgerhouston4131]

@Grant Owen No problem :D

[@nerdagenda]

You could use the FilmicPro app for a clean iPhone feed with the HDMI adapter into a CamLink or other capture card.

[@BelowAverageGaming707]

Great video, thanks alot! Where can i find that angled desk clamp? Can't seem to find anything like it. Goosenecks are just way too long.

[@jconny65]

thank you!

[@gfunkrizzla5843]

Cheers dude

[@braxton_m8]

could you drop a link on the phone desk mount?

[@codenamexelda]

I don't want to be a pokétuber but this has still been helpful

[@sammartino6950]

How does this man not have more subs

[@TravelersRuneAlt]

@Monroe Siverson hes a bot

[@CollectEsports]

This is amazing but the exact mount for your phone is the most important :D what was it

[@joshuafarris424]

I just wanna make sure the picture quality, and sound is good 👍 thnx

[@MultiNando1998]

Dude! Because the current situation I just opened my channel {TheCurs}, so this video is like heaven for me. Thank you very much. P.D. I like your coperajah deck

[@gyrosean]

Good luck on getting setup! And for the copperajah deck, got some spicy changes in gonna show off in a couple weeks 👀

[@gyrosean]

@Ebrahem you could record everything Locally, then just import the files into premiere or final cut, but it’s a bit more editing work, syncing audio, etc. if you want to record in obs, or livestream, then you need a capture card

[@Jlaxbro27]

Hey great vid! I know you said to use a pc or mac to do pack opening but would an hp labtop work? Just wonder because i dont know if im committed enough to dropping hundreds of dollars on a mac or pc?

[@DooplisTheGhost]

@gyrosean Where did you get the phone holder adapter for the Smatree mount? I think I found the mount on Amazon but it doesn't say it comes with the phone holder adapter.

[@chevintcg1729]

if you were to want another dslr cam for the pack opennings, what would you recommend?

[@allenyoung3483]

Do you have any Adobe Premiere Pro tutorial recommendations? I want to start, but Premiere Pro itself is pretty intimidating

[@brandanjohnson9541]

Lets Go!!!

[@gyrosean]

YASSSS!

[@roryvujs9749]

Could a phone and a logitech c922 work well for pack opening videos? And I have a Razer Seiren mic.

[@ratqueen35130]

What is the name of the black mount that clamps onto the table and holds your phone? 7:42

[@davidasbill5268]

Sad thing is for me im trying to get into it but i dont know a good setup or something to hook up since my phones verifaction system is broken so ill try my best to do it. thanks for the tips!

[@annapurna2136]

Just use this one for me m

[@hussmanmasterduel]

Hey dude do you have a link for your phone tripod for pack opening?

[@ashblossom79]

Too great it will help me but obs is not free?

[@BakuraRyou867]

This could work for any TCG channel

[@gyrosean]

Yep

[@thesquirtlesquad842]

could you explain the software you use for the phone

[@TheNinja4]

what other GRO PRO is best for this? Do you use Liner mode?

[@sparklysilvally8278]

Idk if you'll respond to this but how are you connecting the gopro to the flex arm?

[@MBBOYYES]

I just want to know the phone mount he uses

[@Mashmatics]

Thank you I was thinking to do this and you were very good at explaining this also I’m that one guy

[@Zasty]

Can someone link me the desk clamp?

[@randawg8712]

What kind of camera is that, that you're using for your face cam?

[@nicholasdehaas4713]

What is good video editing software?

[@foxgomez1265]

what mount are you using

[@thornedcannon4474]

Nice monitor!

[@gyrosean]

Thanks! Got a good Black Friday deal for them a couple years ago!

[@winster32]

I use my GoPro to edit with my own mount while I ordered my new facecam VERY recently.

[@sadpepe2072]

that cats a big fan i hear

[@pokegamer4740]

Can I use my android

[@RedTyranno]

How much did your dslr cost you? I'm trying to find a used for but I don't know how cheap I can go.

[@gyrosean]

That DSLR along with the lens and other bits was about $2k. You could prob get one a little cheaper now

[@zakkong4786]

What was the tripod you used for your video the one that clamps on too a desk i want to get that one where can i get it

[@gyrosean]

The brand on it says "Smatree" so hopefully you can find it like that

[@zakkong4786]

Thanks

[@edwin4625]

Old video, I know. But wouldn't having an all-black playmat be more beneficial? As far as having the card as the main focus. The stylish playmats distract from the main focus of the video, which is the cards.

[@michealstarbuck]

do you run 2 obs apps to record 2 cameras locally?

[@gyrosean]

Nah, I record through obs and if I need a separate recording I can do so locally on the camera

[@cloystercolosseum6931]

You ordered those separate parts for your mount? Or does it come with it

[@gyrosean]

There multi mount doesn't come with the extension pieces, that's part of the flex arm kit

[@cloystercolosseum6931]

I totally feel like I’m bothering 😅 but what kind of cam link do you use for your GoPro ?

[@nasayatcg]

I cannot find a good desk mount for my phone

[@gyrosean]

The elgato multi mounts are great, though a bit pricey I will admit

[@pok3mon477]

Hey buddy.. You’re based in the UK, right?

[@cardrave4236]

where do you buy the clamp

[@gyrosean]

You can buy desk mounts on Amazon or at B&H photo,

[@capnwigglez780]

What model camlink do you use for the GoPro?

[@gyrosean]

I use the elgato camlink 4k, just because it's the latest model

[@capnwigglez780]

@@gyrosean thank you sir! One last question...what settings do you use on the gopro?

[@gyrosean]

@@capnwigglez780 I use linear mode on 1080p. The ultra wide distorts things for overhead a bit

[@pablo20367]

What is the best deck that i should buy? I´m new and i want to spend 500 coins on that and i can i win coins? Tank you!

[@gyrosean]

I'm honestly not that familiar with the premade decks on ptcgo for 500 coins. But if you're completely new and don't have any cards, the cinderace deck might be ok because fire type hits metal for weakness (Zacian) and then you can get the better version of cinderace very cheaply in trades, and that card is actually pretty good for a budget deck.

Charizard is a good call as well

[@55pillsbury]

I use a gooseneck with my phone

[@Louisef22]

What about tcg streams

[@gyrosean]

All of this works for streaming actually, since the setup brings all the video footage into OBS at the same time. How you choose to edit/format that in OBS is a personal preference
