My Best Desk Camera Mount – for YouTube Creations

September 17, 2022 by Arun Leave a Comment

There comes a time when you suddenly find yourself in the ‘zone’ to create a video.

Everything just ‘flows’ into your mind – the scenes, the words, your articulation, your facial expressions, the opening scene, presentation, monetizing ideas.

Script could be unnecessary in those ‘divine’ times when content just flows with the right ideas and words. All we need to do is just speak, and the rest seems like it’s ‘just happening’ on its own.

At that moment, the camera needs to be setup on a tripod, with apt lighting (talk about 3-point lighting setup), microphone setup, and important stuff connected to the computer (as needed). After this setup, the content ‘flow’ hardly waits and flies away.

How often have you found yourself in this predicament? I know it happens to me at least once or twice a week while working on my videos.

But what if we had a permanent setup (am talking about beginners with minimal room available, who has set up their bedroom cum study cum library cum office cum recording studio as an all-in-one room) for everything in just one room?

That’s when a desk mounted camera-mic-lighting setup comes in handy.

And, this is the BEST desk camera mount (with lighting and mic arm) I found after searching them for a million years (cough… cough… exaggeration, but you get the point)

I have invested in this Desk Mount for approximately Rs.10,000 and never regretted (except for not using my other lighting and tripod setup bought earlier).

Here’s a pic of my desk setup (shabby but hey, it’s WIP 😜) and yeah, too much dust so had to cover them all!

If you are wondering if this does the job, no, it doesn’t! But it helps you get your recording job done with minimal setup time – all you need to do is just twist their arms and start recording.

Nothing more to say. If you’re on the fence, just jump on it and buy it now. Don’t worry about other expensive lighting and tripods. This will mostly serve the purpose if you have to speak and also show something on your computer.

This desk mount setup is NOT suitable for – people who need to create talking ‘head’ videos and show less to nothing on their computer can skip this product.

So, what are you waiting for?

Just go get this desk mount setup and see your video production time cutting in half! You can thank me later 🙂

Canva Embed – Remove Canva Footer from the Embedded Design?

April 22, 2022 by Arun Leave a Comment

Previously on my YouTube channel, I had made a video on how to embed your Canva designs directly within the WordPress website, but this had one tiny problem.

The footer with the Canva link and a few buttons were present and sticky.

I learned it’s an iframe embed, which means we cannot edit it within the embed code and the source web page controls how it appears. And in this case it’s Canva.com.

If this drives you crazy and if you’re willing to go to any extent in making sure that this is removed, then I have something for you. So here’s the trick in theory, since Canva is taking the credit in displaying the image embed, rightfully, of course, we will change the transporter in between which means here that which is carrying that image from Canva to our WordPress website.

The transporter we are going to use in this case is Dropbox.

This is better explained by walking you through the process instead of typing about it, so watch the demo here on YouTube:

The Best Free Annotation Tool for Presenters

October 19, 2020 by Arun Leave a Comment

If you’re into presentations or teaching something through screen sharing online with others, you know you cannot annotate, highlight nor zoom into the screen while presenting.

This is possible in some presentation software like Microsoft PowerPoint to some extent but not without showing the audience what you are actually doing in front of them.

But here’s what’s possible after you read this guide post / watch this video:

  • You could draw,
  • write directly on the screen,
  • highlight directly over most desktop applications including the presentation software and web pages.

Here’s how to get them done.

Just head on to this website which is from Microsoft and download the ZoomIt software.

Once the zip file gets downloaded click on it to open it – this only contains the exe file and is a portable file – you only need to double-click to use it.

This exe file opens up an options dialog box. Just go through this video demo for a detailed walk-through of how to make use of all these options to suit your situation.

In case you are in the Teaching profession or in any training Department within your company then this is a very useful tool to keep handy.

How to Get Mac Cursor for Windows PC

September 2, 2020 by Arun Leave a Comment

In this blog post, we will see how to change the Windows 10 default cursor scheme to Apple mac OS cursor sprites set

With this, we can easily change the mouse pointer for Windows to give the look and feel of Mac OS mouse cursor set.

First and before we set to change the default cursor scheme, it’s a best practice to first check and see what DPI (Dots Per Inch) setting does our PC have.

This helps in getting the best-suited mac OS cursor set for our computer because if the DPI is set to 100% then you might need the El Capitan cursors and if the DPI is set to > 100% then you will need the macOS Sierra cursors (just like how I did – you can see a walkthrough demo in the video provided below).

How to check your Windows computer’s DPI setting:

Right click on the Start button and click on Settings.

Search for Display settings in the search bar.

Here, you’ll see the Scale and layout section with the scaling percentage.

Now, depending on the scaling percentage your computer has, choose one of the two links given below.

Download Mac cursor for Windows from these links:

El Capitan cursors for Windows (100% DPI): https://www.deviantart.com/in-dolly/art/Updated-ElCapitan-cursors-593804414

macOS Sierra cursors for Windows (Higher DPI): https://www.deviantart.com/in-dolly/art/macOS-Sierra-Retina-cursors-650823654

That’s how you can change the Windows’ default cursor scheme with the fancy macOS cursor scheme.

Hope this helped you, if so please let me know in the comments below.
