Setting up an at home studio can cost up to two grand just to buy the bare essentials. If you’re vlogging for an employer or a client, that’s one thing, that’s an investment, and you probably have a corporate account to draw from in budgeting your studio, but if you’re doing it for yourself, for fun, then wait until you have some viewers coming in regularly, figure out how to monetize your vlog with affiliate marketing or banner ads, and then use the revenue from the vlog to upgrade your home studio. If you’re just doing the vlog for fun, then you’ll probably be improvising from the start, using whatever camera and equipment you have handy. Over time, though, you may want to step up your game with some more professional grade and prosumer grade equipment.
