Hi Bolaji Ayodeji, Sure I'd love to. I feel like a lot of what I do is learning, shipping, refactoring, and shipping :D but happy to share what I've learned since I started creating video content.

I create two types of content basically the one where I sit down and talk about a topic and the other kind is technical (doing x with technology) and they both have a different process from start to finish.

First, you need to start with a few pieces of equipment and then you're ready :)

• A youtube channel or twitch
• A good microphone and camera (nothing too pricey for a start my first videos was shot on my iPhone)
• Great software for editing ( I use Final Cut Pro but I started with iMovie, ScreenFlow)

Then, you need to plan your content, what you want to make videos about is really important to do this first actually because there are so many things you can be interested in but bringing it all together to form a niche and a brand will help you communicate better with your audience. For me, I started out with an idea of wanting to create a youtube channel where I can share video content of tutorials I already create and I also had a couple of more ideas. The first video I posted was even about this so people know what to expect from me.

I also have a content calendar/board this helps me save time and gives me a good start for when I want to make new content. I've got a ton of ideas in my backlog soon I can find time to create them but also I treat this like a real project - planning phase, editing, and published phase as you can see from the screenshot below.

It's a game-changer!

This is so helpful Gift Egwuenu, thanks for sharing!
