Hi TL.

Hope you are all well. I made this blog to ask a question to people technological experience.

I want to set up sort of a first person capturing of doing homework problems/drawing. Kind of like Patrickjmt or other youtubers who can essentially tape from a bird's eye view angle of what they are writing/drawing. I'm not trying to become a big youtube celebrity or whatever, I just want to help out for my university's peer tutoring/guiding program using technology.

For the HD camera i was thinking of something like the kodak zi10/zi8 and for the microphone I have my trusty gaming microphone that has served me for many years. But how should I go about getting an apparatus to hold my camera from above? I've looked around and couldn't find anything except really expensive ones for dslrs.

Any help would be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Depending on what your tutoring you won't need a fancy HD camera, if your doing something like PatrickJMT he doesn't really move much and its really simple just writing and paper/white board. But best of luck and its always great when people are willing to do things like this!

Yep i was going to say this would be a good idea, seems like a good inexpensive way to get started. Good luck.
