Overhead Shooting Setup for Drawing under $10!

#shorts
Are you struggling to get a good overhead shooting for your painting or drawing time-lapse videos? Here is my extremely cheap setup! I bought this no-brand microphone boom arm that comes with a table clamp and a mobile phone holder. I bought it for under 8 euros on Amazon. Isn't it amazing? I just love how simple and cheap it is. What is your setup?

Thank you

Thank you i screenshot this to search for it here.

[@liamkucht]

whats your solution for hitting your head on the phone while trying to paint during the filming?

[@feichangyishu]

I'm quite short so I don't have this problem haha. I think the easiest is to have your head a bit further away from the painting, or you can get a taller arm to hold your phone higher. I'm glad now that I am small.

[@CCTVReport]

wow i like that phone holder i want this

[@rickleow736]

Thanks!!

[@KoolCreation]

Helpful thanks!

[@itszybm]

Nice setup

[@svkscorpio]

I purchased a similar one from Amazon. The stem started to shake and then the thread on the clamp got deteriorated and started to slip. I had to add a wooden piece to make it thick enough so that the screw on the clamp continues to work.

[@exp-io853]

for mines the ball that turns around (forgot what its called) became loose so its hard to work with bcz i think it was personally my fault..

[@mimi6427]

Nice

[@patkeller53]

can you post the link for Amazon product you’re using?

[@IELTS_UK]

Hi thanks could you recommend lighting? And a camera for high quality shooting?

[@madam-mim]

[@docgallery]

Do you experience glare on your ipad screen. I do, but dont know how to fix the glare

[@abhignamudigonda5747]

Hey do you record in 4:3 I’m having trouble on what setting to record in with I phone 16:9???

[@docgallery]

Do you use a reflector.?

[@ZOOM_JOKES]

Pls share purchase link

[@sen6393]

Do you think it would be a good idea to put the arm in a shelf instead of the desk?

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

Yes if the shelf is secured onto something. Sometimes the shelf slab can glide out, for example, those IKEA book shelves. You might want to test before putting your camera/phone to prevent damages.

[@xenium1234]

Can someone share me the link to this I would like to buy it

[@DATCHARTS]

If your table shake, if the phone camera and holder are stable?

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

Usually your phone’s digital stabilization can handle small camera movements. But if you shake a lot, it won’t be able to counter it.

[@vishwambhardayal9003]

Kaha se le sakte hai

[@shineandre]

great my friend, where is the link to the product ;)

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

😛 I checked the price of this product which has changed (not promo any more). I bet you can find a cheaper one in AliExpress!

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

My friend bought $5 sport watch and $4 linen pants all from AliExpress. Funnily as a Chinese I have never used it - I just bring with me on my next trip to China.

[@avapopova]

​@@VeryPrivateGallery what's the name?

[@karmyoginiArts]

Plz reply ...can we use laptop table for that type of overhead stand

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

The stand is quite weak, because it’s designed for lightweight mics or webcams. It’s not intended to take heavy weight like a proper camera. Just search online for a mic stand, you can find similar products. I think it works with any kinds of table, as long as it’s stable. If the table is wobbly, the shoots will be shaky too.

[@amywike1196]

Is the phone clamp hard to open? That's the problem I keep having

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

I have different phone clamps: one with a spring that closes on its own, one with a lever to clip manually, and another one with a screw in the back. But I felt the best is the lever because it shuts the tightest. But it’s hard to remove (as that was the idea, to keep it tight and secure).

[@reneluiproductions9272]

The shoe mount ?? Where did you get that from ? cause I copied your idea but the mike connection is to big for the manfrotto phone holder screw in..

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

Usually the mic screws are in 3 common sizes: 5/8, 3/8 and 1/4. The shoe mount is the one for mics and speedlites (flash). They also call the one without electric control “cold shoe” and the one with “hot shoe”.

[@OldAlley]

I still don’t really know how to find that piece. The connector between the arm and manfroto phone holder. What is the name of the one you have? With corner

[@maxc6963]

Very good set up but i am a gorilla so id shake that thing like crazy haha.

[@passionskill6581]

Pls send me the name or link for the same

[@venator7889]

How can it be only $7? In my country the cheapest one is $28

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

I got it cheap! There are deals sometimes. I am constantly watching out for some great deals.

[@DRIPSIRIUS]

In my country, it's only $3.

[@AlienChips]

Can you share the link please? Thanks!

[@VeryPrivateGallery]

I bought it online in Spanish Amazon site. You just search for mic boom arm on any shopping site, and arrange it from the lowest (cheapest). You will find a really cheap one!
