MKBHD Update 13.0: The Studio!

2016-04-07
hey what is up guys I'm Kim PhD here remember when I said I was moving this is one of the last videos that you guys will see in this apartment I mean I didn't really literally say like I'm moving out now but that's kind of what I thought I was doing so long story short was during that time I was looking for a place I found a place I bought a place or at least I thought I did and then that fell through because of the way banks handle a person that's self-employed didn't really work out so I was really let down by the fact that I thought I was about to have a new space to shoot videos in and then I suddenly didn't so after that didn't work out I just started the process over of looking for a place again and while I was doing that I also started shooting my videos outside of my normal spot so in around town or in spaces in the city started renting out like studio space stuff like that just because I was getting so bored of shooting all my videos in my one apartment between those four walls I've read a bit about like your comfort zone recently and trying to branch out and stepping outside of your own comfort zone I like and my hand goes off the frame want to say that but if anything is my comfort zone it's shooting videos in my apartment I've shot videos in there for like the past five years you've seen like every possible angle of that apartment as you possibly can so it would be really nice like I finally get another space to shoot in but as you can see between all those videos searching for things visiting them poring over the details finally found something and it's looking pretty dope so this is the studio as you can see I'm really glad I found it I just it was super empty right now as you can see and here there's a lot of unfilled space but right off frame over there there's a bunch of stuff that you can't even see bringing in stuff for the first time to set it up I've talked about this stuff and showed a little bit of it on my Twitter and especially snapchat most of the behind the scenes of setting up the studio has been going on snapchat because that's just easy you can definitely hear that there is a good in here like a good solid one-and-a-half to second echo from what I'm talking that's going to be my number one challenge with this spot is not making a video ready because it definitely already is but making it audio ready and they can get totally normal sounding to make videos here now there's already a little bit of foam in the ceiling going up the echo used to be like I would snap and you wouldn't stop hearing it for a solid six seconds so we're on that right now is a little bit of an improvement thanks for the phone but one I get like you know couch and desks and more carpeting and things in here a lot of that stuff is going to dampen the sound and one by one want to get furniture in that's going to make a big difference but as of right now my number one challenge is making this place more audio ready and not like an echo chamber anyway I want to bore you with all the brutal details of it but essentially I figured I would show you guys a little bit more as I start to move into this place over the next couple of days and weeks and months a little bit beyond what I was just showing on Twitter and snapchat now I can already answer some of the most common questions I've seen from the comments on Twitter and Instagram people talking about it is number one am i living here no I'm not this is actually a dedicated video space and it's actually for the first time in my life is going to be separate in a separate room from where I live and sleep which believe it or not is a bit of a challenge a number two thing are probably seeing is why do you need all this space to make videos and again it comes down to the comfort zone thing I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone trying to branch out more and also trying to make a little bit more and a little bit different stuff which I've talked a lot about it but again have been in the same apartment not really doing it so here we are I can actually host things now I can bring people in if people want to work alongside me for one project or for a long term that can happen wink wink if you're a youtuber in the New York City area you're invited come on over have a party so collapse can happen here videos can happen here it's sort of a place to bring people and things in that's not awkward in my apartment the way it is now so I'm really excited for the possibilities there and that's pretty much it I mean my goal at the end of the day is to make better videos and hopefully it's a win-win hopefully this space is a win for me because I'm stepping out of my apartment and comfort zone and making new better stuff and to win for you you because it's a better space it's going to look better it's going to eventually sound better and it's going to allow a little bit more of a variety of the type of stuff that comes out of this channel and that's pretty much it also my daily driver right now for those who are wondering is a galaxy s7 edge it's the titanium silver one although that might change in the next couple days just because of the amount of phones that are coming out right now so anyway that's the situation for those who are asking and yeah that's pretty much it I'm gonna get to moving and bring more stuff in thanks for watching I'll talk to you guys the next one peace
