Hi Thanks for visiting my blog!

Here is good information on the best lav mics for you and examples of good sites for royalty free music. Sites vary in cost and quality. On some you subscribe, on others you can make a one off payment.

The site I subscribe to is Soundstripe I’ve used Premium Beat and MusicBed in the past and also Artlist comes highly recommended

Here is a link to a great video that goes through your microphone options when using a mobile phone-

Video Transcript –

In this video today, I’m going to talk a little bit more about audio.

Audio is half of the experience that a viewer of your video has. So keep this in mind. You have different options for the quality of your audio. You can use the audio on your phone or camera

You can use a Lav or lapel mic

Or as you get more experienced you can use a directional mic.

If you are just starting out you can get serviceable cheap mics. If however video is something that you are sure you will continue I recommend spending the money on good mics. Unlike cameras a good mic can last you decades.

Bonus tip – use some ——- background music. This will make your video stand out. By the way it has to be royalty free music or you will have problems sharing your video online.
