The “How to Take Videos that Look Good” series explains the key points for easily shooting videos at home or in the office. We have delivered one-point advice over the course of eight episodes.
The theme of this final episode is “home studio”. Let’s check the key points while looking at an actual home studio.

1. The color of the wall
The reflection on the wall is an important issue. Repainting it from a slightly glossy light gray to a matte dark gray made it easier to adjust the light, and I was able to use colored lights to make the wall any color I wanted.
2. Sound
If you have nothing in the room, the sound will reverberate everywhere. You can soften it a little by putting a sofa or carpet in the room, but there is a better way. Use sound-absorbing materials.
We attached sound-absorbing sheets to the walls and the ceiling directly above the shooting location, and attached general sound-absorbing panels to the rest of the ceiling. We have completed professional-grade acoustics.
3. Equipment stand
The camera, microphone and lights are all installed on a stand with casters. You can move the whole set of equipment to wherever you like. It folds up compactly, so you won’t have any trouble finding a place to store it.
4. Lighting
In addition to practical lighting, we also installed stylish, decorative lighting. All of it has smart functions, so you can turn it on and off just by talking to your smart speaker. It’s very convenient to be able to change the lighting settings just by using your voice.
5. Uniformity of the background
If you make sure that the background doesn’t change depending on the time of day, etc., you can create a video that doesn’t look like it was edited together when you want to add another scene later.
We have given you five ideas for home studios. Please have fun designing your own home studio, using these as a reference.
