After having read thru this thread, my advice fwiw..... >>Hire someone to
script and shoot the video for you.<<
Honestly, you are in over your head in re: to what is required to produce
even a halfway decent tutorial video.
Even suggesting that 6 or 10 or 2(!) cameras are needed shows your lack of
knowledge on the subject without having to mention 'Youtube quality' or
'webcams'.
With a properly thought out script and blocking sheet an instructional video
can be shot and edited with 1 camera if need be.
2 at the most. This is not going to be a live broadcast why go multi cam?
(ISO use aside) Shoot the scene. Move the camera, shoot it again, move the
camera etc. Viola, many angles with 1 camera. Assemble in post.
You will learn MUCH more, MUCH quicker watching a professional service
assemble this for you than trying to duct tape it yourself.
This is not an elitist statement, but many video professionals (OK maybe
just me)
slap our foreheads and sigh when we read of what people think is needed to
produce a professional video product.
It would be similar to someone saying to a mechanic, "OK I have a wrench, a
hammer and a jack, I am going to rebuild my engine. Where do I start?"
If you blow 2500 bucks doing this yourself, there is a very good chance that
you will wind up with an unwatchable video or at least one that does not
show your invention in it's proper light. You have spent many many hard
working hours creating and assembling your device, do not cheapen yourself
now with the presentation of it. If anything THIS is where you need to bite
the bullet, spend some nice $$, hire a prod.company and produce a
professional product.
