filming setup

Two weeks ago, I rearranged my studio, so I can start filming videos once again. This is a messy shot of my setup. I probably should have cleaned it up before snapping the photo, but eh..just keeping it real.

I’m shooting with my Nikon camera on a tripod. The battery doesn’t last long on my camera, so to prevent it from shutting off midway through a video, I bought a power adapter for it. It slips in place where the battery goes, and I no longer have to worry about the battery going dead because the camera is plugged into my power strip. Works really well if you’re filming in a stationary setting like this. I have a large size SDHC card in the camera, so I’m good to go for a couple hours without needing to dump the card onto my computer. 

As you can see, I film upside down, and then rotate the video once I’m in iMovie. 

This is a new oil painting that I recently filmed. I sat down, and painted 12 of these watercolor paper portraits over the past 2 weeks. I’ll show you more in upcoming videos. And the good news? I’ll be giving one away each month to my newsletter subscribers. If you haven’t subscribed yet, you can here.

I hope you enjoy the video. Now that I’m back to filming, and I have a computer that actually works, I’ll be uploading to my YT channel on Wednesdays. See you there! Also, check out the kittens’ channel. I just uploaded a new video there, also, and it’s super cute. 🙂 Please subscribe to both channels, if you haven’t already.
