You don't need fancy equipment to start a YouTube gaming channel. Your channel will be defined by you and your talents, not your equipment. However, better equipment will allow you to produce better quality videos. Some of the equipment you might need is as follows: High-end gaming PC: Gaming in general often requires pretty powerful PC hardware.
Gaming while recording your screen, webcam footage, and audio is especially taxing on your computer's hardware. Screen capture and recording software: Both Windows and Mac have built-in screen recording software. You may want to try more robust screen capture and recording software. OBS is a popular screen capture program that is free to download. Capture Card: While Playstation 4 and Xbox One have their own game capture technology built-in, the functionality is limited.
A capture card can capture a video signal from an external device such as a game console and save it to your PC. If you plan on covering game console games on your YouTube channel, you may want to invest in a capture card. There is plenty of free video editing software option, including OpenShot, Shotcut, and Lightworks. Video camera: Your computer's camera may be suitable when you first start making YouTube videos, but eventually, you may want to invest in a good quality video camera to record better quality video.
Microphone: While most computers have a built-in microphone, purchasing a decent microphone will make your voice sound a lot better in your YouTube videos. Lighting: Proper lighting will make you look much better on camera. Ideally, you should use soft lighting placed in front of you. Avoiding recording in rooms that are too dark or have too much light in behind you.
You can use desk lamps placed in front of you, or you can purchase an inexpensive webcam lighting kit. Do some test shots. Before you start filming videos on YouTube, it's a good idea to test your equipment and filming techniques before you upload videos to YouTube. Make sure the picture quality is good. Check the lighting to make sure your face is clearly visible. Make sure the background or room you film in is neat and tidy. Listen to your speaking voice and make sure it is clear and easy to understand.
Be careful of any verbal ticks you may have, like stuttering or saying "Um" or "Uh" too much. Familiarize yourself with the YouTube Community Guidelines. Before you start uploading videos to YouTube, it's a good idea to make sure your content meets the community standards.
Content that contains shocking graphic violence, sexually explicit content, threats or harassment, fraudulent information, encourages dangerous behavior, or private information, or copyright material may be removed by YouTube and possibly get your channel deleted. Familiarize yourself with YouTube's ad-friendly guidelines. If your goal is to make money on YouTube, you'll most likely need to rely on ad revenue from the YouTube Partners Program unless you are able to find your own sponsors for your videos.
Not all videos uploaded to YouTube are advertiser-friendly. Videos that contain bad language, sexual or violent content, controversial topics, or use of drugs, tobacco, or firearms may be demonetized, which prevents you from receiving ad revenue from those videos. Record your videos. After you have your channel and your equipment all set up, you can finally start recording. Make sure you have an idea of what kind of video you want to produce before you start recording. Don't just record Let's Play videos.
Find out what kind of searches people are doing on YouTube and Google about your game. Do a video to try to answer those questions or entertain people. Edit your video. After you've recorded your gameplay footage, you don't just want to upload everything that happened. If you are getting bored spending hours level grinding, or trying to solve a puzzle, chances are your viewers will get bored too.. Look for highlights of your gameplay footage.
Look for you best reactions, unexpected events, or things that are relevant to what you want to talk about in your video. Include voice overs and reaction shots. Take the time to craft a good quality video that is entertaining to watch. Come up with a good title for your video. Don't just name your video something like "Dave Plays Roblox Episode.
Find out what people are searching for when they search for the game you are playing. Come up with a title that will help your video come up in those searches. Engage with the gaming community to find out what fans of your game are interested in. If you are doing a Let's Play series, name your video after a funny or interesting event that happened during your gameplay.
For instance, you can give a free prize when you reach a certain number of subscribers, during specific holidays, at the release of certain big-name games, and so on. When you give value to your subscribers, they will reciprocate by continuously returning to your channel. If their perceived value is high enough, they will likely recruit their friends to support your channel, as well.
This way, you can profit more from your video gaming YouTube channel. Everyone wants to make money with a hobby that they love. If your passion is video games, then why not create a video gaming YouTube channel and start making money?

There are three essential keys in choosing the best headset: comfort, sound quality, and microphone clarity. Everything else can actually be considered a bonus. Over the ear headphones are great for sound isolation, but they can become a little hot and uncomfortable over time, depending on how long you play. On the other hand, ear but can be a more comfortable fit, though they can slip out if they are not properly fitted. Many people are impressed by the quality of HyperX Cloud Revolver.
As with game consoles and hardware, there are a lot of different video editing apps and software options from which you can choose. Adobe Premiere Pro is extremely popular and is timeline-based.

It offers top-notch video masking as well as awesome transitions. Granted, this may not be the cheapest software, but it definitely adds a touch of professional quality to the finished product.
Final Cut Pro is pretty famous when it comes to video editing. In fact, it has edited a lot of well-known movies and films.
