I'm planning to record videos for my first online course, but I honestly don't know where to start when it comes to equipment. I don't want to spend a fortune, but I also want the videos to look and sound good. I have a basic laptop and a smartphone, but I'm not sure if that's enough. Do I need a special camera? What about a microphone or lighting? I keep hearing people talk about ring lights and USB mics, but I don't know which ones are actually worth it. I really want my course to look professional.
