      @scottalanmiller Kindred spirit. I have my associates degree in video electronics and production. Never used it. At the time I graduated, I didnt know anyone in the industry so it never panned out. Editing was my absolute favorite thing to do. To take the raw footage and create something out of it was very satisfying. Good for you man!!

      Thanks! And it's @valentina who did our logos, too!

                  Ordering a new microphone to make voice overs better and easier. And looking to attempt switching from OpenShot to KdenLive to see if it is more powerful before the next episode.

                        Looking at this one...

                        Just a nice USB mic for my desk that will pick up good vocals.

                          This one is cheaper and well reviewed, but out of stock for a week.

                            You can also try using Davinci Resolve and even Blender

                              Blender really isn't for video editing. It can, but it's not built for it. It's really more to compete with After Effects. I have it, but would be pretty rough for normal video stuff.

                              Davinci Resolve is $300 for all the features, and requires so much horsepower, I'm not sure it would even fire up on my machine 🙂 I had looked at it, though.

                                    Very nice. Trying not to spend that much, though 🙂

                                      Resolve is free. Resolve studio is the paid one but I'm pretty sure it's fairly featurefull for free. You don't get things like stereoscopic 3D grading, motion blur effects, team collaboration, etc. But for normal editing it's pretty nice.

                                        I'm about to get a new computer just for editing, so I'll check it out when I have a little more power. I've been watching it a long time and it looks really nice. I thought that there were some key features in paid only, but maybe not. Certainly worth testing.

                                            @scottalanmiller What microphone and type are you looking at?

                                            Looking at this one...

                                            https://www.amazon.com/Amazonbasics-Desktop-Mini-Microphone-Gen2-White/dp/B07TGQB7RK/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=usb+microphone+amazonbasics&qid=1589905214&sr=8-1

                                            Just a nice USB mic for my desk that will pick up good vocals.

                                            That's pretty horrible stuff for what you want to do.

                                            If you want to record voice-overs you need to have the mic close to your mouth. If it stands on the table and it's a condenser mic, you will pick up everything including when you move or even touch the table. And you'll pick up sound from further away that you didn't intend to get on the recording.

                                            That's why this type of setup is standard:
                                            alt text

                                            But if you want something smaller and more agile you could go with a headset that has a good mic. It could do double duty for other things as well 😉

                                            For instance something like this:
                                            alt text

                                            Both of the two options above can be found for just little more than the toy microphones you had in mind - if you go with lesser known brands.
