TIPS “People don't need to see you to be most engaged with you. Our voice is so powerful; it's the most

impactful part of your personal brand. You don't need to be on camera at all for your personality to shine. You can never turn on a camera in your career, and still do quite well.” - Nina

The JOBYWavo POD USB Microphone is a great choice for a desk mic, or if you need a more portable solution there are the JOBYWavo Air and DJI Mic Digital Wireless Microphone Kits , which can be attached to a phone or camera, or pinned to your clothing.

A dedicated camera can help your videos look more professional, and the Sony ZVVlog Camera series has the perfect starting point for all budgets.

The Elgato Stream Deck can take your livestreams to the next level, giving you a slate of programmable hot keys to fast-track the functions you perform most.

A Stream Deck is incredibly handy if you're a one-woman show like myself, and sometimes like to clip your own bits to repurpose into other content later, or automate parts of your process,” says Nina. “You can program a lot of actions into it, so I have a smaller one in my voiceover booth that I can use for recording, editing, etc. as well!

For some fancier camera movements, JOBY’s Swing and Spin mount kits can be programmed in an app to record dynamic panning shots and timelapses. The DJI RS3 Mini gimbal is a powerful stabiliser, reducing camera shakes for silky smooth motion.

Ring lights are great for casting an even glow across your face or space, without glare. The Influencer Ring Light Kit packs clear white LEDs and the full RGB colour spectrum to add some personality.

Green screens are great accessories if you want to superimpose yourself over a new background. Many game streamers use them so they can show both the in-game action and their facial reactions at the same time. The Influencer Green Screen is reversible, with a green side for daylight and a blue side for darker scenes. The Elgato Green Screen pops up out of an aluminium case and locks into place at any height.
