Every time I watch you sir I just want to teach people the way you teach.

[@angelocast]

Esto es espectacular! Gracias por compartir tanto! Excellent Advices!!!

This was so.much fun. Thanks Miguel, for your teachings and spreading some laughter!

[@GRUMO]

My pleasure Divya!

[@DavidBookbinder]

I always enjoy the way you blend humor with really clear and helpful tips. Thanks for doing what you do!

[@GRUMO]

Thanks David. I really enjoy teaching and entertaining at the same time.

[@AHR1130]

Great job as always Miguel. Buen trabajo. The best instructor for online courses!!!!

[@GRUMO]

Thanks Andy!

[@NADiA.Kossinskaja]

Andy Rodriguez agree!

[@sachinraverkar4257]

It was so natural and full of humor, that I did not feel that someone is teaching me! Awesome! I wish someday I could make videos like these! Alas, I can click the LIKE button only once!

[@GRUMO]

Thanks for watching Sachin!

[@MarksTips]

Thanks for the video and the handy checklist. I liked the pull-down color screens (green/white/black) next to your computer. Very smart. I also like the the books on the wall background. Eres el MEJOR! (You are the BEST!)

[@GRUMO]

Thanks Mark! for the books I use 3M picture hanging strips. First I use normal clear tape to keep the book closed, and then I use a small piece of 3M picture hanging strip to stick them to the wall. The great thing about those strips is that they are removable and don't damage the wall paint!

[@BronEager]

“Make sure it’s water” 🤣🤣🤣 Priceless. Thanks for a great video :)

[@GRUMO]

Thanks for watching! Water is good for you!

I followed the advise to buy the Samson Go Mic and it is simply great mic for a starter like me. Thank you Miguel for your support to install it on my MAC 😉💪

[@ClaudioBernasconi]

Great video! I use almost all the tips in your checklist already, but it is a great reference to point people to in the future. Also, I like your style. Thanks a lot, and see you next time.

[@GRUMO]

Thanks Claudio! I still forget some of my own tips some times. Now I have my own video to remind me... hehe

[@ClaudioBernasconi]

@@GRUMO ​ Grumo Media Great to see I'm not the only creator who goes back after a few months or years and watches his own videos because he forgot about how to do something. ;-)

[@MarioLiani]

Hola, Miguel! Tus recomendaciones son siempre bienvenidas, útiles, puntuales, precisas, muy al grano, "a prueba de burros"... pero más allá de ello, aprecio mucho tu estilo desenfadado, que es lo que te define y te hace destacar! Un abrazo, hermano!

[@GRUMO]

Gracias Mario!

[@user-tz3uk1pg2x]

You are fantastic! May countless blessings come your way.

[@GRUMO]

Thank you so much!

[@LarryProchazka]

Great tips Miguel! I wish you could relax a little bit on camera but, that will come with time! Ha! Do you have recommendations for compact lighting that doesn't cost a lot? Ciao!

[@GRUMO]

It takes practice Larry. After a few videos it will feel more natural. For lighting you can get nice LED kits on Amazon for less than $300. You don't need anything fancy. If that's too much, you can try to record near a window, but you'll have to make sure your record your videos around the same time of the day to avoid noticeable light fluctuations. Cheers.

[@ViniciusEliasIT]

Thank you for this great and enjoyable lesson!

[@GRUMO]

Thanks for watching!

[@stefan48391]

Hola Miguel, you are doing a great job, thanks a lot! At the moment I am unsure how and with which cam I should record myself. My P30 cell phone has a very good cam, but Screenflow does not currently support WebRTC, so I cannot select the cam (Iriun, Camo etc.) as a device. How do you do it with your Canon that picture and sound are in sync again at the end? I have to say one more thing and that is when I stop or pause the recording of videos (screencasts) very often with the Screenflow shortcuts [cmd + shift + 2 or +1] Alternatively, I could run the cam in full screen on one monitor and record both monitors with Screenflow. But as well as Supoptimal. I would appreciate a few experiences from you or your community.

[@GRUMO]

I only get a bit sync delay when using my Sony DSLR connected via the ElGato HDMI to USB dongle. For that, I need to sync the audio after recording.

[@susannama3412]

[@christopherdoval]

Can you recommend video conferencing software that I can use to record lectures in 4k?

[@GRUMO]

You can use most modern cameras and even smartphones to record in 4K. However, I’m not sure there is any software capable of streaming video in 4k. Most typical streaming resolution is 1080p.

[@arooogaa]

Do you think teleprompter/autocue is worth using?

[@GRUMO]

I find it adds complexity and it never looks natural.

[@Qurandailyy]

Hi, thanks for the great content. Please I would like you to advise on how I can record high quality video (like this) with my phone. Is there an app I can download on my android or do I have to buy a camcorder?

[@GRUMO]

If you have a fairly new Android phone, you should be able to get quite good quality video as long as you have proper illumination and follow the instructions in this tutorial.

[@Qurandailyy]

@@GRUMO I'm using a Huawei P30 lite. Probably I need to edit it a little. I just love the quality and color of your videos.

Muy entretenido tu video, ¿lo podrías hacer en español para que lo vean nuestros profesores también? Hay una buena cantidad de público de habla hispana que realmente necesita ver esto.

[@GRUMO]

Hola Marcelo, este canal es exclusivamente en inglés. Si pongo videos en español mis seguidores no se van a enterar de nada. De todos modos, mi madre que no habla inglés dice que puede ver mis videos subtitulados en español. No es lo mismo pero ayuda!

[@ashokvlogs3666]

Which is best camera for educational videos

[@GRUMO]

The simplest way is to get started with a smartphone. Then you can move up to a webcam like the Logitech C920 and a screen recording tool like Camtasia to capture your screen and webcam. Beyond that, you can buy a DSLR camera but that can get expensive. I use a Canon 70D for the talking head videos. But if I need to record my screen, I will use Keynote for the presentation and ScreenFlow (same purpose as Camtasia but for Mac only) to record my screen, microphone, and webcam at the same time.

[@ashokvlogs3666]

@@GRUMO sir I have canon 5d mark ii but I am not able to shoot more than 12 minutes but I need non stop 1 hour recording video camera

[@GRUMO]

To record longer, you’ll need to use a different camera or try to break your lessons into smaller sections and stitch them together with a video editing tool like Camtasia, Premiere, or Final Cut.

Your channel looks great Paul. Make sure that you enjoy the process and that your personality in your videos.

Most of what I've learn about growing a KZbin channel has come from that course. Onwards!
