Home Studio

Turning the room you have into a set, from a bedroom corner to a spare room, for creators who film at home and want setup to take minutes.

Most home studios are a bedroom, a desk or a corner with a window you can’t move. What any room can give you is depth: sitting 3 to 6 feet in front of the wall lets the background fall darker and softer and keeps your shadow off it. The rest is a background worth looking at, cables out of frame and gear that stays set up.

YouTube studio setup for a small room is the whole job as a checklist for a room under 10 by 10 feet, from choosing the spot to a five-minute setup routine.
