I have a studio mike, but I don't have an extra stand I could put it in, and 
even if I did, I really don't want to be moving that mike any more than 
necessary, lest I pop the ribbon.  This is a Noemen (or however that's spelled, 
sorry,) ribbon mike.  Definitely not something I want to break, considerred a 
church donated it to me, and this sucker from reading online normally ran 
around $5000.  NO, I didn't say 500, I said $5000.  Suffice it to say, I feel 
so blessed and greatful to have this thing!

Chris.

  My earphones have a built-in mic which is of sufficient quality for what I’m 
doing.

    So, do you guys also use an external mike, like a blue snowball or 
something, or just the internal mike on the mac?

      good advice but don't forget someone can help you with setting the camera 
via Skype. they don't have to be in the room with you. my friend robin did that 
with me. we figured out how i should set my laptop whether i was sitting at a 
table in a chair or leaning back. i love quick time. its much more basic. you 
press record and then stop. what i like to do is record several small videos as 
its easier to get them right than recording one long video. then i use the add 
clip feature in the edit menu. when i have all the clips tied together I go to 
files and do an export. then i have one whole movie file. as for youtube i 
record in hd but then i do a second export to 480 p because it doesn't hurt the 
viewer's ability to enjoy the video and it allows for much quicker uploads and 
smoother playing on mobile devices. the window is about 530 380 . hope this 
helps, max

        Brandon, currently I'm using the built in QuickTime app to do all my 
video recording. You can then just upload the video clips to YouTube from 
within the app if you desire. As far as an auto position and you in the frame, 
I'm sorry to say you can forget about that. I have a little bit of site and I 
always take a few test shots to see if I'm in the frame or not. If you can get 
some cited assistance they can help you get in the frame, and then you can 
remember to wear your position, distance from the computer height of your seat 
etc. That's how I do it.

          Hi everyone,



          A few questions. I’d like to record video to upload to Youtube. 
What’s the best application to use for this?



          Secondly, on a more practical note, is there a way I can do this 
independently, and yet make sure it’s capturing my face, and not like the top 
of my head or something? I know it won’t be perfect, being blind, but would 
like to make it as good as possible. Any other recommendations would be 
appreciated as well.



          Peace,

          Brandon
