When I first started taking content creating serious. I was broke.99
Here is a video of my original set up. Didn’t cost me over $100 that’s with all of my lighting, camera, backdrop, and editing software. https://youtu.be/SNuZ_s1vFog ">https://youtu.be/SNuZ_s1vF...

The backdrop: I remember years ago on HGTV a couple creating lawn chairs using pvc pipe from Home Depot and I thought...what else can I make with PVC pipe. Start I started my googles and Pinterest search and saw a party planner...
Who used PVC pipe to create a photo booth backdrop. I took the same concept and created a smaller version to use in my room. Along with the purchase of dollar clamps from Home Depot and scrap fabric from Hobby lobby
Not the original video I saw but here is one: https://youtu.be/yFJY_29wsUw
Also">https://youtu.be/yFJY_29ws... it cost me a total of $15 for the pipes and a pvc cutter.

Another inexpensive alternative is this $8 clothing rack from Walmart: https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainstays-Adjustable-Rolling-Garment-Rack-Chrome-Black/629678927">https://www.walmart.com/ip/Mainst...
I originally purchased this to display some merch and clothes on it so it can be in the background of my videos but then I thought...BOOM! I can use this $8 stand. Buy $1 clamps, and some old fabric, and use it as a backdrop...plus it rolls.
Here are the clamps I used with the link:

Now on to lighting. For those who don’t have access to a ring light or good natural lighting.
I purchased $1 white bulbs from dollar tree and flood lights, originally from Home Depot, but they’re cheaper on acehardware: https://www.acehardware.com/departments/lighting-and-electrical/work-and-shop-lights/portable-lights/3810645?x429=true&gclid=CjwKCAjw8J32BRBCEiwApQEKgT9LLVdm6b1viKNmMWU0TV74QeHooyv60dsCSQ6u_JDuL5pqZhLzSxoCC10QAvD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds">https://www.acehardware.com/departmen...
