Use that back camera!!
We all know the back camera with multiple lenses is a much better image quality. These help you film and still know what’s getting in the shot
Make filming on your back camera easier with this affordable alternative to a screen caster
2024 Smartphone Camera Mirror Reflection Clip Kit
Can be finicky to pair with your phone if you set up a wireless connection but so worth it for filming on your back camera and making sure everything still looks solid.

Different ways to prop up your phone for the best angle
So sleek and compact for filming in public spaces where setting up a tripod would definitely attract unwanted attention.
APPS2Car Gym Magnetic Phone Holder 360° Adj
Gimbals stabilize your phone when you’re recording holding it and reduce shaking in your videos

Super compact so you can grab and go or have it handy out and about. The magnetic mount element makes it easier to set up versus the OG style that would accidentally press side buttons

If you do demo videos where you want to have an item or showcase prominent instead of your face this is a great way to prop your phone up for a good angle and be hands free
Overhead Camera Mount with Ring Light & Phone Arm
Stabilizes your phone so you don’t have that shakiness even just holding it (like I do) let alone walking and talking

Apps
Editing and planning tools
I use this for my content calendar, which I’ll end up making into a sellable template at some point!
Notion
This is my preferred app for video editing because I can get all the same features as the main app but I can download without a watermark without needing to post. You can also schedule TikTok posts to publish at a preferred time and manage engagement...
TikTok Studio
Microphones
Both wired and wireless options
For as easy as wireless mics can be, wired usually has a stronger connection where you won’t lose sound from a bad signal.
microphone for iphone
The standard for most creators! Everyone loves the fuzzy cover but it’s actually for outdoor sound! Good for hands free movement
Mini Mic Pro Wireless Microphone for iPhone & Android
Other Tools
Good lighting makes a huge difference in video success, it makes eyes pop and just looks kore professional
Best Cell Phone External Flashes & Selfie Lights
Good for standard writing and keeping different ideas straight because you can break it into sections and brainstorm different things as they come in the moment for later production. Can get refillable inserts as well.
Traveler's Notebook
Filming and editing can be a battery drain, especially when you go live. If you record away from home you want to have these handy just in case. Most come with a stand too so you can film while charging.
Magnetic Power Bank
Nothings worse than running out of phone storage from all the photos and videos your drafting, store files with this and don’t waste money on cloud subscriptions
USB-C USB Flash Drives
