Lapel Microphone

Lapel Microphone

Improve sound when recording YouTube videos?

I recently recorded a video with my Sony Handycam.

When I dropped it into Camtasia to record other elements, the sound was poor compared to my Camtasia recording which made the video look unprofessional.

To overcome this I was thinking of buying a lapel microphone to improve sound and found a 40 channel wireless microphone lavalier tie clip lapel on eBay. Is that a good option? http://cgi.ebay.com.au/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=110349109902&ih=001&category=29949&ssPageName=STORE:PROMOBOX:NEWLIST#LIST

Do I then have to connect the microphone to the Handycam with a cord, even though it's wireless?

What's the best process to achieve the outcome of a good sound quality video please?

a good microphone does help produce better sound, especially when it is placed at the right spot.

other ways..

maybe you can try out camstudio..

use camstudio (from http://camstudio.org/) program to record your computer screen, then upload.

--for best editing....

use windows movie maker (included in your windows machine)... it can help you make beautiful slideshow or video clip(e.g. mixing your songs with pictures/video/lyric/etc).... then save it as video file such as wmv file format... finally upload.

or .. Just get those clips you want , save & convert them, and then mix/match with pix/sound/etc using windows movie maker to create new masterpieces....

this will help you.... Use 'zillatube'. This is the easiest (and also the fastest) way.

Zillatube produces mpg/mp3 formats from youtube that are compatible with windows movie maker(or media player), and more.

It is very easy to download and convert videos. Then edit those converted mp3/mpg videos with windows movie maker... save your file as wmv and then upload.

It works very well....just google search for "zillatube"
