;Start a Video Blog: The Tech Behind the Scenes
I have been getting a bunch of questions lately on what type of gear I use for the video blog and the live streaming segments. So… I decided to do a video showing you the different hardware and software we use to make it happen.
In case you are to lazy to watch the video, here is what I use:
Cams
Canon XL1
Canon Elura MC2
Mics
Audio Technical Pro88 wireless
Audio-Technica ATR-35S Lavalier Microphone
Rocketfish USB Gaming Headset
Software
Adobe CS3 Masters Edition
Adobe Photoshop/Premier Elements Package (used to use, but great for price)
Camtasia Studio 5
PC Rig
Dell XPS 420 Quad Core/ 4Gb ram / Radeon 8600GTS Pcix8/ Radeon 6200 pci
3x Dell 228WFP

Great stuff JJ. Though now I have confirmation of what I suspected previously — I am a novice when it comes to online video production. I just started doing some video I guess about two months ago, initially using my Canon SureShot 6mp camera (yes, for video), and directly uploading with no edits whatsoever. I thought I made a big leap when I stared about one month ago using a Flip Video HD camcorder, and editing with iMovie. Guess I was wrong
Anyway, again, good stuff, very helpful. Do let me know if you come over to Beijing this summer, we can get together and chat.

Nah. Your stuff looks great. I’ve already checked it out.
Most of what I have is from the other side of the business. People expect the fancy stuff when you are charging them $50k for a marketing program
It’s really overkill for a blog unless you are one the big guys.
Content is what really matters, and you showing us cool new places and people in China is a lot more interesting than looking at my fat ass talking any time, any quality.
