The essential accessories of the Content Creator!
How many countless content creators do you see every day on all social media platforms turning their hobby into a profession or at least entertaining and educating their audience? If you're interested as well, it's not as difficult as you think to get started.
Of course, you'll need some mandatory or optional accessories and devices, but don't worry, let's take a look at them one by one!
Smartphone:
You need to capture the videos and photos you need for your content, and this can be done with a smartphone! It doesn't have to be a flagship or super expensive. However, you want it to have good cameras, the ability to record at 60fps if you like cleaner and smoother videos, and possibly stabilization function to keep your shots steady if you're holding it in your hand.

Camera:
If you still want more control and don't want your smartphone to be busy during shooting, you can also invest in a good and affordable camera for your shots. The hottest category in recent years is Mirorless, which is usually lighter for greater comfort and convenience. Don't forget to choose one that has a 3.5mm or USB port for a microphone, because sound in a video is more important than you think!

Sound:
Your viewers may "forgive" you if your video is not a cinematic production or has some weaknesses in the image, but if the sound is not clear, they won't stay to watch you for long. So whether you have a camera or a smartphone, a microphone is necessary to always sound the way you want.

Lighting:
With modern smartphones, you may not have a particular issue with lighting in any space, but if you want the best result or want to use a camera, then a light source will save you! From a small, medium, or large ring light to slightly more advanced situations with lighting kits!
What else is left?
Very convenient for steady shots is obviously the tripod, both for your camera and your smartphone, so you don't have to hold them in front of you with boxes, books, and other makeshift solutions.
Also, a selfie stick or gimbal for external and more stable handheld shots.
