I have my Logitech C930e webcam plugged in to USB port on my computer, but TVPaint Video Input panel does not detect the device. Or I’ll find a way to keep the MacBook Air either cool or far from the microphone so I can’t record the fans.Video-In is not working at all for me. So for most videos I’ll switch to use the camera as a camera, rather than as a webcam. And it gets super hot, I think I’m pushing its limits too much by recording the screen, the camera input and the microphone all at the same time. The problem now is that the MacBook Air fans (2018, 16GB of memory, SSD, 1,6 GHz Intel Core i5) start and make a lot of noise. There’s a little delay between audio and video in the recording, but easily fixable. Bonus points for not having the big camera microphone covering parts of the screen. I tried to also stream the audio along with the video, but I couldn’t, so I use the Samson Meteor microphone instead, with a pop filter. With this system I can use the DSLR camera as a webcam, which is pretty cool because that’s the best webcam I could ever find! You can read all the details there but long story short, I keep these 2 applications open:Īnd my camera, connected via USB to the Mac, shows up as an option for video input. The other day I was randomly searching “how to use a Canon EOS as a webcam” and I found this sweet Swizec article about it. The problem with this is that videos last 30 minutes on the camera, so I had to re-start the video again (maybe there’s some setting, I didn’t look too much) and the SD thing was becoming a burden (the camera also has Wi-Fi download for videos, but it’s not very practical as well). The audio track from the two videos helped me sync the 2 recordings. So, my recording workflow until this morning was this: start a ScreenFlow recording to get the screen image and the audio from the monitor, and start the camera recording at the same time.įinished the video, I grabbed the SD card from the camera, and put it into the usb-c hub connected to the Mac, and imported the video into ScreenFlow. Why? The simpler the process, the more videos I make. I also got a green panel for those nice recordings where you are into the video, but I never used them yet. Then I got a few lights for when I’m recording in the evening or when the light is just not right. I usually put it before the screen while recording me coding: I also got a microphone for it, the TAKSTAR SGC-598, which sounds awesome. It also makes the background blurry in videos, which makes a nice effect. The flipping screen is the things I was more interested in. An entry level DSLR camera, but it has all I need: a flipping screen, and autofocus. Once I decided to get “serious” I then got a DSLR camera, a Nikon EOS 200D. immerse more into the video, it gives a nice isolation from the outside.It has a built-in monitor where those earpods are connected, so I can Then to get a better audio quality I got a microphone, a Samson Meteor. Then I switched to using my old Nikon J1 camera, much better quality but the problem was that it didn’t have a flipping screen, and one time I talked for 20 minutes without recording, and I didn’t realize it. I started by using my iPhone SE to record my face, and as a microphone too. I’m recording my videos using ScreenFlow. Since I started, I changed the setup quite a bit, and this post aims to describe how I do things. I really dislike programming videos where you don’t see the person talking. I recently started making some programming videos where I’m part screencasting, and part there’s a little icon of me showing up. A detailed description of how I do my videos.
